Dear Diary ,

Today was a good day I had gotten the highest grade in my class my teacher praised me and I had received a gold star it was wonderful but there is this new girl every time I look at her my heart races I can't breath I get all clumsy she makes my heart race I can't get her out of my mind I guess I have a silly crush but I feel like I know her somehow but her smile her smile is everything to me she looked at me today and gave me a small smile I felt like my heart would melt if I looked at her any longer, please Diary let her notice me that would mean everything to me and I would be the happiest I would ever be, tomorrow is my birthday I am turning the big thirteen I can't wait I must be going to bed now but I will be back after school

From Mohamed

I was woken up by a clap of thunder I had felt my heart start to race running out of my room I dashed down the hall to my mom's room and slowly opened the door knowing she was asleep I walked in slowly and stood right beside her I gently tapped on her shoulder " mommy " I kept repeating over and over in a hushed tone she moved over and groaned a huge clap of thunder made me scream causing her eyes to open faster than sonic " oh dear are you scared " she spoke in her morning voice I quickly nodded my head she gave me a small smile and picked me up and pulled  me close in her arms and started to hum a lullaby "yalla tnam Rima Yalla yjeeha el nawm yalla theb essala yalla theb essawm yalla tjeeha el awafi kel yawm b yam" slowly I began to feel my eyes grow heavier slowly feeling myself slip in and out of reality drifting off to sleep. I was woken up not too much later by the sound of planes going through the sky there seemed to be at least a few hundred going by at a time my mom quickly sat up and put her hands up to her ears and asked me to cover mine which I did so as soon as the sound faded we moved our hands " mommy what was that " I spoke half asleep she just let out a small sigh " we are just having a bad time our country is at least I promise you it will be okay..i will make sure of it " she sad sadly while telling me to get ready for school. when I made my way down stairs i could feel a small pit in my stomach like something was about to go very wrong but I quickly shook it off and went back to getting my stuff ready for school once I put my uniform on I quickly went downstairs " bye mom " i screamed up to her and ran out the door and noticed the girl I had a crush on walking down the street Quickly I ran up to her and smiled " hey " I said quietly she looked at me but then quickly looked down shy " hey i um must be getting on to school we will be late " she said quickly before running into the school.
