Delilah Martin

I don't know what I'm supposed to write here. I always try to start these things and I never manage to keep up with it. Maybe this will be a change now that I've got someone telling me to do it. My therapist thinks it's good. I don't quite see why exactly, but I'm giving it a try anyway.

I think I'm going to call you Fred, Diary. Fred's a good strong name I think. I don't know if naming my diary makes me more or less crazy.

I promise from this moment on, no crappy poetry or song lyrics, Fred. I wouldn't' put you through that. Don't worry.

So, where to begin, Fred? Hello, I'm 15 years of age. I go by the name Delilah Martin, Dee mostly. I live in Jefferson County, Washington. I'm not going to say exactly where I live Fred, because I've read Harry Potter and sometimes diaries are evil. No offense, but "constant vigilance" and all that, ya know?

Anyway, I've lived here most of my life and I guess I've gotten used to it by now. I think I'm done now, ready to hit to open road and explore the country, but got a few more years.

Oh, how was my day you ask? I went to the bookshop, picked up a couple things. I got Ender's Game as per Lisa's rec. I expect great things. I got The Great Gatsby for Lit, which I expect to hate, but who knows? Could change my life. I also picked up this one I wasn't intending on getting. I hadn't heard of it before but it had this cool minimalist cover with black and white hands holding this apple, so I picked it up and read a few pages. It was cute and weirdly enough it was set in Forks, which is only about 20 minutes away so I was curious. I thought it would be a take on Snow White or something of that ilk with the cover but it's modern and I haven't seen anything remotely magical yet. Anyway, I read a bit and wanted to keep reading so I grabbed it. It's called "Twilight".

Something to look forward to, I guess.

Hm. I think I've just bored myself to sleep, so, this entry's done.
