June 3oth, 1989
Derry, Maine

Saying today was a good day was a stretch, sure it was the last day. But it was shitty.

Nothing that bad happened, except for the fact no one knows how to wear deodorant. Now here I am, in smelly hallways walking with my friends talking about dicks or something.

"So, there's like this church full of Jews, right?" Eddie starts

"It's a synagogue dumbass." I say in reply as we push through the halls

"Shut up Rose, anyways Stan has to take this super Jewy test." Eddie finishes before the boy next to him, Bill starts talking

"But how does it work?" He asks

Bill Denbrough. Some people hate him because he has a speech impediment, but he really is a good friend. But of course I would say that because i'm utterly in love with him.

"They slice the tip of his dick off." Eddie replies

"But then Stan will have nothing left!" Richie, the boy next to Bill replies

"That's total bullshit. No way." I respond

"About him having nothing left or the slicing dicks?" Richie teases before Stan walks up to us

"Wait up, you guys!" Stan says pushing a space between Eddie and Bill so he can fit, sending me flying into Richie

"Hey, Stan, what happens at the Bar Mitzvah, anyways? Ed says they slice the tip of your d-d-dick off." Bill asks confused

"Don't believe Eddie's bul-" I say before Richie interrupts

"Yeah, and I think the rabbi's gonna pull down your pants, turn to the crowd and say, 'Where's the beef?'" Richie says making all of us chuckle

"At the Bar Mitzvah, I read from the Torah, and then I make a speech and suddenly, I become a man." Stan explains

"Which y'all dipshits would know if you payed attention to social studies." I add

"Everyone knows I don't pay attention in class! But I could think of funner ways to become a man." Richie says

"More fun, you mean." Stan says as we walk past the Bowers gang, Patrick giving me a wink while I give him the finger

"Think they'll sign my yearbook? "Dear Richie, sorry for taking a hot, steaming dump in your backpack last March." Richie starts as Gretta 'the bitch' Keene bumps into Stans shoulder "Have a good summer!" Richie finishes

She isn't up to any good.

We make our way to the trashcans at the front of the school and dump out all of our stuff, but I keep my sketchbook and diary.

"Best feeling ever." Stan says as everything left in his backpack gets left in the trash

"Yeah? Try tickling your pickle for the first time." Richie says

"You're fucking disgusting Richie." I reply to his utterly disgusting comment

Eddie completely ignores Richies antics though, and starts talking "Hey, what do you guys wanna do tomorrow?"

"Draw." I simply state

"I start my training." Richie says, fixing his glasses

"Wait, what training?" Eddie asks knowing Richie doesn't do any sort of sports

"Street Fighter."

Eddie scoffs "Is that how you wanna spend your summer? Inside of an arcade?"

"Beats spending it inside of your mother." Richie says before holding his hand up high for someone to high five him but Stan just pulls his hand down
