Dear Diary,

Edward didn't speak to me today. :(

It was almost as if I don't exist. He even walked right by me and didn't say anything. :( :(

Ali said that maybe he was having a bad day. He did seem a little upset. That's sad. :( He's almost always smiling and happy.

Boys are so confusing.

I finally found some really cute clothes at Contempo. I even found a cute yellow sundress and a little white sweater to wear with it! I think I'll wear it on the first day.

Love,

Bella
