Diary of a 6th Grade Girl(5)

                And some other exciting news is that Kyle taped a note to my locker this morning. It said: “Hi Sarah, I’m not going to eat lunch in the cafeteria today, so I wanted to see if you would come to the library with me. It will just be the two of us. Hope I can see you there! Kyle, xoxoxo”

                I had to ask Sharon what the “xoxoxo” part meant. She says it means hugs and kisses! That is really sweet of him. Too bad Kristy didn’t see. She didn’t come to school today, and I heard it was because she was getting her braces put on. Maybe she won’t be so popular with braces.

                I did go to see Kyle, and it was really fun. I helped him study for our Social Studies test, because he has trouble with that. He’s really cute, and I like the way he plays with his hair when he’s thinking.

                I have to go clean my room so it will be ready for the sleepover tomorrow! I’m really excited. That’s two weeks of Middle School completely done with. It’s been great too, and I think that I’m going to enjoy the rest of the year. I just hope it keeps going this well.





Day 13


                Dear Diary,

                Sharon just left, and it’s almost time for dinner. The sleepover was a lot of fun! I hardly slept at all. We stayed up all night, just talking.

                Anna did our nails for us, and they look really cute. We didn’t get any chance to study, but it was the weekend, so I think that it’ll be okay. I’ll just study extra hard tomorrow. I would study tonight, but since I didn’t get to sleep last night, I’m going to bed early.

                I think I’m going to start wearing makeup to school. I want to impress Kyle. I know he said that he thinks I’m pretty, and he said that when I wasn’t wearing makeup, but he might notice me more if I was wearing at least a little bit of eye shadow, some blush, and some lip gloss. Maybe I don’t need the blush though, since I blush a lot around him anyway!





Day 14


                Dear Diary,

                Today was terrible. I don’t really want to talk about it, but I have to write it down anyway. Kristy fell in the hallway today, and all of her books went flying. Even though I was standing by my locker, and I didn’t do anything, she told everyone that I had tripped her! Can you believe it?

                I couldn’t believe it, and people actually thought that she was telling the truth. Sharon stood up for me, and said that she had seen me busy at my locker when Kristy walked by, but no one would listen to her. I got sent to the principal’s office because of it!

                I didn’t get in trouble or anything. I’m not suspended, and I don’t have detention. But the principal did call my mom, and everyone thinks that I tripped Kristy. My popularity went down a lot, and no one will even listen to me when I try to tell them that I didn’t do anything.

                The only people who believe me are my friends from the lunch table. My mom knows that I would never trip anyone, so she wasn’t mad, but she was disappointed in me for getting myself into that situation. But it’s not like I did it on purpose, or I had a choice; it just happened.

                Why can’t Middle School be easier to understand? There are a few things that I really don’t get. Like, Kristy has braces now, and she looks kind of funny with them, but her popularity didn’t get hurt at all. But everyone hates me just because Kristy told them that I did something I didn’t even do. Even if I wear cool clothes, or look good, people will make fun of me for being short or ugly. I don’t think it matters what I do, I’m never going to be popular. But, I’ve seen some of the popular girls in action, and they’re really not nice. I don’t think that I really want to be popular if the only way to get there is to be mean to everyone else.
