Dating

I'm not sure I'm up for this whole dating thing. Tobi and I went skating, which was awesome, I loved racing around the rink-even though I fell several times.

However, after skating-he wanted to slow dance-yuck. I couldn't stand having his hands on me and he kept trying to get closer to me.

It's not that he's not a great guy, but...well...he's a guy. I'm not sure that I'm too much into guys if you know what I mean. I wonder how I could tell him that-gee, I'm not too much into you right now since, well, you're a guy.

I got a new job, no more pumping gas downtown. I now work in the Apple Valley Welcome Center's Gift Shop. I'm a cashier and when I become an adult, I will start leading tours.

not!

She thinks she's all that-she's not-just cause she's an actress-stupid sister!

I wanna be just like her! Not an actress-but popular...maybe. I looked into that tour guide stuff and it seems really cool. I told Tobi that we could go out this next simday-I didn't know that he liked me. Ginger is upset-she thinks Tobi is cute, but she's dating that Grex farmy boy! Why is she so mad?

No College!

Dad and mom just told us that they can't afford to send us to college!!! Ginger was ok with the news-she just wants to get marrried and have babies anyway. Ugh, it's disgusting listening to her talk at night while I'm trying to sleep. Maybe I could be a tour guide-I read about that in Simmerville-I could do the same thing. O! Tobi asked me out-like a date. What!?! When did that happen!

Divorce and Death

Dad is sad-my older brother Astaire divorced his wife and then died in a freak bus accident on route to his game. Poor daddy-

Hmmm

Hazel Starr took me and Ginger to Etta Leigh's house, well actually mother made her take us. I met Etta Leigh's little brother, Tobi. He's cute! We talked about sports and how he wants to become a police officer...I wonder if I would like to be police officer?

I'm Ready!!!!

I am going to conquer the world! How you ask? I don't know yet...but I will. I might become a pirate, wouldn't I be a cool pirate, maybe I could run an illegal operation, or perhaps I'll just work for a local business.


Daddy laughs at me when I tell him me dreams of domination, he says "Marilyn, slow down, enjoy life." I'm ready for life to be NOW!!! I want to rule the world!!!
