Mieko's journal

Nov. 7

Thursday Nov 7.

Dear Diary?

No. To kiddish.

How about Journal Entry #1 ?

No. To formal.

I'll just start like this...

It's November 7, 2013 and I'm in Genetics, not that I'm actually paying attention, but still. I just had the brilliant idea to start a journal, after reading "The perks of being a Wallflower" I know the book is written in letter form but I don't have anywhere to send said letter, so I'll just do my own thing. 

I've tried writing books before but it never works out for me. This will be different though... Hopefully. 

Anyways back to my point.

I'm writing this little section thing just to talk about whats going on right now. I just finished the book & started to cry in the middle of class. I asked to use the bathroom. Mr. Benson was no doubt about to deny my request, but then his eyes registered my red nose & puffy eyes. He graciously let me escape to the bathroom. 

Sometimes I wish I didn't love to read because then this wouldn't happen. But then I wouldn't be me. Would I? It doesn't really matter. I am me & this does happen. 

Since I'm the only one that will ever read this I don't really have to explain what "this" is but I feel like I should. Besides what if I forget about little stuff like this when I'm older? Yeah I should probably explain.

So like I already said I love to read. The problem is I get way to into the books that I read. I have a way of clinging onto the characters & making their life my life. I honestly feel their emotions & pain.  If I'm being honest its not really healthy. But the worst part is when I finish a book or series. I go through what I assume is some form of withdraw. I don't really get better until I start another book or give myself a little project to do. Kinda like writing this journal  Well I'm done for now class is almost over. Oh yeah I'm Meiko by the way.
