THE SUMMERSTONE DIARY

June 19th, 2008

Today was the usual day. You didn't expect that, did you? Of course you did. I guess that diaries don't recognize sarcasm. Its summer vacation, OFFCIALLY, and Twinkletoes is supposed to be coming over in an hour so we can go get some ice cream and hit the beach. All I care about is that ice cream. I'm roasting! Why is the summer so damn hot anyways?

So you're probably wondering why the great Toph Bei Fong is keeping a diary. Well I'll tell you. It's a dare from Sugar Queen. She and I were hanging out and just talking yesterday when she randomly, and I really do mean randomly, asks me if I keep a diary. Well of course I say no. I'm not into the really girly stuff like painting nails, sleepovers (unless Aang is there because then I get to do stuff I want), diaries, flirting, blah, blah, blah.

When I answered no Katara quite promptly dared me to keep one for the summer. Well of course I said fine. I mean, come on! Toph Bei Fong does not back down from any dare. I have the scars to prove it. Of course Katara was also pulling out a notebook out of her bag so I couldn't have said no anyways. I don't know why she still is carrying around her backpack, school ended two days ago!

Anyways. I should probably describe yourself to you, since I ain't holding you up to a mirror anytime soon. You're a green composition notebook looking thing, just thicker and with a string that I can tie you shut with. I'm going to have fun doodling on you, you'll have lovely tattoos!

I guess I should also tell you a little bit about myself. My name is Toph Bei Fong, but I think I've mentioned that already. My birthday is August 31st and I will be turning seventeen. I live in Ba Sing Se with my extremely rich and snobby parents. I don't get along with them very well. I like punk and heavy metal and I don't like reading. At All. I don't have many friends as I can't really stand my fellow classmates. They're too fake for me. And annoying. How could I forget really annoying? My only friends are Twinkletoes, Sugar Queen, Sparky, Snoozles, Suki, my cat Momo, and Twinkletoes' dog Appa. To translate the nicknames I gave these people they are (in same order as the above) Aang, Katara, Zuko, Sokka, Suki, my cat Momo, and Aang's dog Appa.

Ba Sing Se is a very isolated city. We're also one of the most technologically advanced. We have to be, there are no more benders. They all went extinct about three hundred years ago, after the last Avatar died. His name was Aang (apparently Twinkletoes is named after him) and he was the last Airbender. He brought peace after the Hundred Years War. At least, I think that's what they call it, I don't pay attention to school too much. But anyways, after he brought peace there was no more need for the Avatar and the benders as we invented new technology. The world couldn't hold them anyways, and after Avatar Aang died, it was out of balance because of the loss of the Airbenders. That's the way Twinkletoes tells it when he's feeling nerdy.

I will never show this to anyone, so you can't repeat this, but I'm kinda scared about this summer… I feel like something big is going to happen, maybe mom and dad'll go live in the North Pole and I'll get to stay here by myself! Haha, like that would ever happen. I wish.

There's someone knocking on my window so I should go. I'll write again tonight, per Sugar Queen's orders. Why I need to write at the end of the day I don't get, but that's Sugar Queen for you.

-Toph.
