Dear diary,                                                                                                                                                                       My life sucks. It just sucks.

I overslept today because the batterys in my alarm clock ran out. So by the time I woke up I was an hour late for breakfast. And the other greedy kids had eaten it all so I didn't even get any.

Then I was late for my tutor and she told me off. Then she gave me a frowny sticker for yawning during some boring lecture about poetry.

After that I just wanted to watch TV and relax but when I went to the living room I found 2 boys fighting over the remote. 

Then I went to play in the garden and was on the swing when I fell off, grazed my knee and tore a big hole in my favourite dress.

I got in trouble about the hole and now I have to wait for it to be stitched up.

Dear diary,                                                                                                                                                                 It snowed today!

I looked out of my window when I woke up and everything was white. I got dressed in warm clothes and went to join who was already outside in a huge snowball fight.

When we got bored of that we all worked together to make a snowman. Well, I say worked together, really everyone else worked and I was pushed away. I suantered off to another part of the garden to make my own snowman.

I tried making a snowball and rolling it on the ground like how you normally make a snowman but it kept going wrong. In the end I just piled lots of snow in a montian shape. I found some stones to make the eyes and mouth, but I still needed a nose.

I slowly snuck into the kitchen and luckily it was empty. I dragged a chair over to the fridge and opened the door. The carrots were kept on a high shelf so I climbed onto the chair and looked around. All the carrots were gone so I looked around for something else to use. In the fruit bowl I spotted some purple grapes so I grabbed one from the bunch.

I took it outside and put it on the face of my snowman. I stepped back to admire my work and I realised It didn't look much like a man, more like a snow blob.

As I was noticing this something cold and wet hit the back of my head. It slid down the back of my neck and squealed. I turned around to see one of the boys laughing his head off.

I sent him a glare and he walked away. My eyes followed him and I watched as he crouched down to work on his snowman. My eyes then wandered to a bucket by the garden fence. Quickly, I grabbed it and filled it with freezing snow. I dragged the heavy bucket to the boy and without him noticing I tipped the entire contents over his head and he screamed.

Then it was my turn to laugh my head off.
