Hi. My name is Lila. I have long blonde hair in a bun, mostly because I'm insecure about my hair. I also wear khakis and a tee shirt with a book quote from "Harry Potter" or another amazing British TV show or movie on it. I am a girl and I am going into ninth grade. I'm just like most normal kid, except for my social anxiety issues. Mom says I have to try harder to get friends but she doesn't get it. The only person who does is my Mimi. She is the most kind and beautiful seventy-five year old woman you'd ever see. I got to see her every day this summer because she had to move in with us. She is getting older and the fact that my Grandfather died last year isn't making her life any better. Sadly, my summer of fun is coming to a close end. Well, at least I'll be able to see my best friends and only friends I have. Eliza and I became friends a year ago. She is tall and has short brown hair in a ponytail. She wears the same Hamilton sweatshirt that says "...And Peggy!". Natalie or Nat as I call her has long black hair and perfectly straight teeth. Maybe that's why she has so many subscribers on YouTube. Mellissa is the most talented viola player there is. She finally got me to start taking violin lessons a month ago. So far so good! And then there's Victoria. She is at the top of the spicy pickle food chain and is the most sarcastic person I know. Boy did I miss them this summer. Elisa spent the summer going on a musical tour (she went to seven in total) while Nat had to stay updated on her YouTube all day. She made at least one video every week. Mellissa was at summer music camp, where she got first chair in the viola section and then she kept on getting invites to play at people's events so I could not see her at all. Victoria went to see her relatives in Cumberland for a week. She is the only friend I got to see all summer. The only thing I'm not looking forward to is meeting new people. As I mentioned above, I have social anxiety and now my mom signed me up for the new and returning people club. COME ON MOM! Well, I guess that's all I have to say. Lila out!

Lila closed her dark blue journal Lila finished writing her journal entry. Her mentor told her it's a good way of dealing with her anxiety. Then, pulled out her earbuds. She left the music (her favorite album of P!ATD, Pretty.Odd) on and put her orange pen down on her nightstand. Her little brother pushed open her door and came into the room wearing a pair of "Thomas The Train Engine" underpants on his head. 

He started to dance singing "Things are shaping up to be pretty odd. Little deaths in musical beds. So it seems I'm someone I've never met-"

"-MAX GET OUT!!" Lila shouted. 

She jumped out of her bed and pushed him out of her room. Lila then heard her 'Tardis' alarm clock go off playing the 'Doctor Who' theme song.  Lila sighed and pressed the sleep button on the alarm clock. 

"Today is going to be a Great day." Lila said sarcastically.
