Dear New Notebook,
It's me, Emily. Emeline Sophia Carter. The 14-year-old girl who still keeps a diary/notebook. All my "friends" don't have diaries.
Well, I should tell you more about myself, because you don't know me yet. I have a mom, Sandra, a dad, Carlos, and an older sister, Bethany, who is currently in her second year of college.
I have an aunt, two uncles (one's not married), three cousins: Sarah, Maria, and Noah. Sarah is 18, Maria is 17, and Noah is 16. Gosh, doesn't look like I have anyone to hang around with.
I wish I had more time to live in eighth grade before the summer, which will eventually lead to HIGH SCHOOL. I'm going to be entering a drama-based high school, called Secondary School for the Dramatic.
I have to go do laundry, mum is calling.
Sincerely,
Emeline S. Carter
