Ashley- Ashley Elizabeth Matthews.
I just got back from the children's hospital. Those poor, poor kids with leukemia, and other haunting diseases. Now I am at home babysitting Kenny, Janie, and Danny. My older sister Jill gets way with everything. Mom and Dad never make her cook dinner, or baby-sit, or get perfect grades. Jill is sixteen, I'm fifteen, Kenny is seven. The twins are four. I want to be a nice person, I want mom and dad to be proud of me, so I over- achieve with my grades. I will probably get into Harvard, or Yale, or Princeton. Something really good. I want to be a doctor, so I need a proper education. My parents seem to think that it was their decision, but it's mine. I want to be a pediatrician, I love kids. I'm so happy that Natalia moved her. Of course It's horrible about her parents, but at least now I finally have a girl to talk to. The guys are great, but sometimes you just need to have a sleepover, or a day at the mall, and the guys aren't with that. Marcie is okay, but she has always been the outsider of our group, I don't feel very comfortable one-on-one with her. Speaking of our group, something has been up with Mike. He has been acting really weird around me lately. Could it be? Oh no. Does Mike have a crush on me? Oh my God. I like him. I like him a lot. But as a FRIEND. If he does like me, it's going to be really hard breaking his heart. He has such a good heart.
