Dear Diary,

Ugh, I have so much homework tonight! I cannot wait until Winter Break! But it's still November, so I guess I'll just have to deal for the moment…

So, last entry I mentioned that Finn and I are going to be married. Well, here's our whole life story:

Finn has been in love with me for years, but was always to shy to tell me. One day, when we're seniors in high school, he'll ask me to Prom. I'll pick out the perfect dress, and we'll have a great time. Realizing that we're meant to be, Finn will ask to be my boyfriend, and I'll accept. We'll go to UF together. On the summer after we get are bachelor's degree, we'll have a romantic date and he'll propose. I'll say yes (obviously!) and, like I said before, we'll get married in Paris, France. He'll invite Jess and Amanda, but in some strange occurrence, they'll never get the invitation and won't show up. (Or, I'll convince him not to put them on the list in the first place. Both works.) We'll buy our dream house in California; I'll become a famous newscaster, he can do whatever he wants. (I'm not sure what he wants to do when he grows up. I'll have to ask him.) We'll have three kids and live happily ever after.

Maybe I'm asking too much. I personally don't think so.

But our wedding will be the best part. It'll be purple and white. My dress will look just like Princess Diana's, except with a shorter train. Our first dance will be to "Just the Way You are." It'll be during the spring.

Oh, and I forgot to mention!

The nearby community center is holding auditions for a production of Romeo & Juliet. It's for high schoolers only, and guess who signed up? Finn Whitman himself! Naturally, I did too. I found a monologue online during break today and have been practicing like crazy. I need to get Juliet. Finn was chosen as one of the hosts at Disney World, so he must be a really good actor. Not only does this make him even dreamier, but it also means he's shoe-in for Romeo. I have to be Juliet! Amanda signed up too, and I'm not letting her get that part!

Well, that's all. I'm taking Biology this year, and it's really hard.

Sincerely,

Jeannie P.

(Later that day)

Hey, Jeannie! It's Jess. You know, you really shouldn't leave your diary out in broad daylight. Someone might be tempted to read it. Or make comments in it!

Speaking of which, you and Finn will never be together. Finn and Amanda? Probably. But not you. I'm not trying to be mean, but he doesn't like you. You're just going to embarrass yourself if you keep flirting with him. It creeps people out when you do that.

Also, I know you know about my journal. I'm not trying to hide it from you. And who said I could see the future? Neither Amanda nor I have said anything like that.

Oh, and it was me who signed up Amanda and Finn for the play. They haven't realized it yet; so don't ask them about it. Once they find out, they'll probably either not show up, or do purposely bad, so I wouldn't be so sure that Finn is going to be Romeo.
