Dear Diary,

I met a cute boy today. His name is Mike and he just moved in next door! He seems really nice. His dad is a firefighter and his mom will be teaching at our school. I think it would be weird to have your mom be your teacher, but he said it isn't.

His mom and my mom seem to have hit it off. They went shopping today. I suppose that means we'll all be spending lots of time together.

I'm excited for the school year. Ali and I are going next week to enroll and pick out our classes! We're hoping we can get some together. I'm thinking about taking a creative writing class because I love to write so much.

When I told Edward, he said that the writing teacher, Mr. Yorkie, is awesome and gives really cool assignments. He said he took the class twice because he liked it so much. I didn't know you could do that, but I guess when you're in high school, there's more freedom with your classes.

He and Jasper will be moving into their dorm soon. They're both excited about that. I bet they'll party all the time!

Love,

Bella
