Dear diary,

I HATE SUGAR SO MUCH!! I hope she dies in a freaking hole. And you know what? IM GONNA PUT A SPELL ON SUGAR AT SCHOOL TOMMOROW AND MAY'S GONNA HELP ME! She deserves it after what she did today.

Matthew didnt complement my outfit. But May and I always complement each other's outfits. MAY IS SO PRETTY! She wore a white shirt with flowers on it. I think it goes well with her strawberry blonde hair (she dyed it over the summer) And when she got her picture taken she had the prettiest smile. And I know she's insecure about her retainer (she got it over the summer) but her retainer makes her smile look better in my opinion. I wish I could have a retainer instead of these ugly braces. After her picture was taken it was my turn. I made sure my hair was in place and sat down. As I said before I had to look my best (I even did my makeup this morning) but you know what? I felt confident today. The stupid camera lady kept telling me to turn around. Then the camera flashed and I smiled my biggest smile.

And guess what happened after school? I FOUND THE POTION!! It was in my locker this whole time! I put it in my backpack so I could give it to Matthew during rehearsel. During rehearsel, I sat in an auditorium chair with May and watched Matthew talk to his friends. I was sitting there trying to build up courage to ask him to drink it. But what if he refused to drink it? May turned to me. "You actually put a piece of his hair in there?" she wispered. "Yeah? What about it?" I wispered back. "Electra!" she said. "What?" I asked. "You know what Im just not gonna say anything" she said. After a few minutes, his friends walked away. I finally built up enough courage and walked up to him with the jar. "Hi, Matthew right? Someone told me you liked strawberry lemonade and made this for you and told me to give it to you" I said nervously as I gave it to him. "Um okay thanks" he said. "Anytime" I said nervously as I walked away and hid behind a wall. May followed me and we peeked so we could see if he drank it or not.

AND GUESS WHAT FREAKING HAPPENED WHEN I SAT BACK IN THE AUDIENCE? Sugar walked up to Matthew and saw that he was holding the jar. "The f*ck is that?" she said. "Oh, that weird girl with the accent gave it to me" he said. DID HE JUST CALL ME A WEIRD GIRL? Actually I dont really care, I still love him. And being weird is good. Maybe he likes weird girls. I hope he does cuse Im a weird girl. "Dont drink that shit, it'll give you AIDS" Sugar said as she took it from his hands. AND YOU KNOW WHAT SHE DID NEXT? SHE FREAKING OPENED IT AND POURED IN THE GARBAGE AND THEN THREW THE JAR AWAY. "That biatch" I wispered angrily to May with my teeth clenched.

When I got home from school (I got home before my mom as usual) I went upstairs to my room and layed on my bed thinking for a few minutes. Then I had an idea and went downstairs to do some reserch. After about an hour I went back upstairs and called May. "I have an idea to get back at Sugar, but Im gonna need your help cuse this thing requires two people" I said. "What is it?" she said. "We're gonna put a spell on her" I said. "Put a spell on her?" she said. "Yeah" I said. "But like how are we gonna do that?" she asked. "Okay so first we're gonna need black robes, my mom has some in the bathroom" I said. "Okay" she said. "And then tommorow at school Im gonna bring black eyeliner and we're gonna like put it above and below our eyes. And for the spell I need to write her name several times on a paper and then crumple it up and put it in a bowl. And then I need to add 50 strands of grass, 5 leaves, 5 dandelions, and 10 marigolds which we'll have to get at school tommorow since I dont have any marigolds in my backyard. But I have grass, leaves and dandelions. We'll also need a piece of her DNA, so I'll have to find a way to get a strand of her hair. And then we'll need to mix them together with a wooden spoon which I'll also bring." I said. "Im glad we're doing this cuse I dont like her either" she said. Then she paused. "Do you need me to bring anything?" she asked. "Oh I almost forgot! The spell also calls for 10 lilacs which you have in your backyard right?" I said. "Yeah I do, I'll put them in a ziploc bag and bring them tommorow" she said. "Okay thanks see you tommorow, I'll tell you more about the spell then" I said. "Bye" she said. "And remember, dont tell ANYONE about this its a secret" I said as I hung up the phone.

I spent about 10 minutes writing "Sugar Pink" on a piece of paper and then crumbling it up. Then I went in the backyard and spent like a half hour picking up pieces of grass. It was hard cause I kept dropping pieces. Then I got the leaves and dandelions and put everything in a bowl. After that I went to the kitchen and put seran wrap over the bowl. Then I put the eyeliner, the bowl and the wooden spoon in my backpack for tommorow. I put the robes next to my backpack cuse they wouldnt fit. This is gonna be so good!!
