Rory

Dear Diary,

Ok, well that's actually a pretty weird way to start this one time entry. Whatever. I just have felt really weird lately about my life. And now with the play thing. I guess I should start at the beginning.

About a week ago my guidance counsellor decided to tell me that If I want to get into Harvard I need more community service and more extra curicualr activities. So I think 'hey no problem,' then I realize that I have nothing to do. So I decide to kill to birds with one stone and find a way to do an extra curicullar and community service at the same time. My idea was to direct a play and charge money that I would donate to a charity but I was seriously lacking two things. 1) Help and money 2) A play. So I talked to Paris. Despite everything I've gone through with her I decided that she was the only Chilton student that I could turn to for help. Plus she could provide me with the two things that I needed. I knew that Paris had written a romantic play for her drama class last year and that she would probably jump at the chance to gain more community service and extra activities. So now I'm co-directing a teen love story written by Paris herself. Whoever thought that she was a romantic.

Onto my new topic, Jess. Unbeknownst to Dean we've been hanging out a lot lately. Not doing anything that would qualify as romance. Every Saturday afternoon we catch a movie or browse the bookstore. Beside's Lane he's probably my best friend. I know that Dean would go postal if he knew that we were hanging out, that's the only reason I haven't said anything to him because I know that I love him. I don't want to lose Dean, but even more so I don't want to lose Jess. And that's where my dilemma stands. Does not wanting to lose someone qualify as supreme like or even love? Is it possible to love two people at once? I don't know if I will ever find out if Dean and I stay together.

Jess

For the first little while I found it strange to commit my innermost thoughts and desires to paper for no reason. And then I found a reason. It made me feel so much better. I've worked out a lot more on paper than I have elsewhere. Believe Me. So I have a problem. Two actually. The first is the fact that I have to try out for some sissy ass musical that I've never heard of written by someone named Paris. It just takes away from my Rory time. Which brings me to the next problem. Her name is Rory and I can't stop thinking about her. She's taken, yet she's everything I wish I had. So I guess avoidance is key. Too bad we hang out every Saturday. Maybe I can use the weirdo play as an excuse.
