I would like to think that if I had read someone else’s experiences at age 13, I may have been able to change my course, redirect my energy.

I just read every diary entry here and it all could have been ripped right from my 7th-8th grade diary. I am a woman in my 30’s now, happily married, gainfully employed - and sometimes when I can’t fall asleep at night, I think back to some of these embarrassing and hurtful memories. They really did change me and maybe even influenced future poor decisions. I hope you keep up with the entries.
