Sweet Simplicity

Dear Diary,
What do most people write about in a diary? Ever since I got this empty clean paged beautiful book I have been dying to write in it, but what do I write?
I could tell you about my day, I could tell you about how it was Briaa's lucky number day. She's so superstitious! She's an amazing person, but she has a lucky number, and is a reader of every card, always gets her fortune told, and has today's horoscopes constantly with her. Some people think it’s funny, how she tells everyone everything, but some people admire her speaking her mind.
I couldn't tell you what we learned in LA today though; I find that a horrid subject, my teacher told me "Just write what you think about the subject." Why would I want to think about something so meaningless? I suppose writing isn't all that bad, but what is it with this pointless thinking? I could summarize my thoughts in a perfect short summary and yet my teacher doesn't seem to think that's enough. We wrote one paragraph, my teacher said it should be easy, yet the topic was so hard 'Write about your opinion on a children's story that you were told as a child.' All children's stories are dumb.

I don't really like science either; it's like an impractical and finicky version of math.
I could tell you all about my History class, and my math class, and lunch. I don't think that it is very interesting though.
Oh well.
I'll try and write more tomorrow, this is much better than LA, even though it is writing.

Dear Lilly,
I loved hearing about your day today, hopefully I will be hearing more from you. It has been so tiresome feeling my empty pages, and I hope that you fill them up. Even if I can't see your world, hearing you write and talk about it is refreshing. I think though that there are some stories I could tell you that you would find interesting, and I must disagree, Science is very precise, and LA does have meaning. Maybe we can discuss this more later.
Sincerely,
                  Diary
A flower is a flower, no matter how many petals it has. To live life as a flower though, I believe would be rather dull. Don't you?
