Dear Diary,

I’ve been thinking about J a lot lately. I just wish he was in my class next year. But he’s not.

I’ll do anything to make him like me a lot. I want to kiss him. (Well, him wanting to kiss me would be even better!) At least once, I wish that he liked me. As a matter of fact, I pray every night that he would. I ride past his house on my bike and hope he’s out. And if he’s out, he even talks to me! Well, he knows I like him but he doesn’t know I dream about him. Maybe he likes me a lot and dreams about me too. (I hope!)

Seeyabye,
M.
