Dear diary,
I guess I should give you a name since I really hate the words "dear diary"
There isn't really a good reason for hating those words. Maybe it's because it attracts too many nosy people. Anyway, I'm not sure what your name is gonna be. Bob? Maybe you're a girl. Rosa? I'll think on it. I suppose I should start telling you about myself since that's what people usually do in a diary. I'm Alexia. I'm a couple months away from sophomore year of highschool; I'm VERY excited. I used to be some nerdy girl who wore hand-me-downs and her mothers clothes. Last year I wore a uniform at a different school. Things are different now. This year is gonna be mine. I have a job so I can afford to get new, cute clothes and look stunning for everyone to see this past year has changed me. My attitude towards everything has flipped. Towards myself, partly my family, and maybe even life itself. I finally feel like I'm ready to take every moment, embarrassing or amazing, head on. People have gotten used to underestimating me but they're about to really know me. Im growing as a person, and I still may not know what life will bring and what I'm going to do, but I'll make it there. It'll take time and lots of upcoming struggles. But Im on my way there. Im still learning, and I'll continue to learn.

Your new friend,
Lexi
