Exposing My Diary - Juliette will never find her Romeo
As a subscriber you have the distinct pleasure of invading my grade school diaries. . Writing them down word for word (for the most part), I’m sharing my innermost 12-year-old thoughts. It’s going to get awkward. It’s going to get cringey (and I simply can’t emphasize this enough). Join me in this awkward exploration of first heartbreaks, ~emo~ poetry, mean girls, self-doubt and discovery, as we pick up where we left off, in August of 2005.
Exposing My Diary - Juliette will never find her Romeo

Hey. It's been awhile since I wrote. I was up at Brooke's house for 3 days. Ah, good times. Well let's see.. here's what we did. When my mom dropped me off at her house, Brooke and I hung out in her room. She just got her room re-done, and it looked very nice and more mature. Our wall color is the same. We ate a deeeelicious dinner, then Brooke went off to cross country practice. She is a very good runner. So I stayed in her basement and watched TV.
When she came home, we went out for some ice cream. I got my favorite, mint chocolate. That's what I usually get. That's Day 1.
Day 2: Brooke went to practice again at 8:30, but I slept till 10. I had Kix for breakfast, something I haven't had for a looong time, so I decided to note that LOL. So then we babysat Brooke's bratty neighbor Juliette. She's such a brat!! Juliette shall never find her Romeo.
That nite we went to the mall. I got a Green Day CD "International Superhits," earrings and a bracelet. Her mall is so nice! It has "The Limited" and "Abercrombie". Then we went and saw "Dukes of Hazzard." It wasn't very good but Bo was hot. Jessica Simpson had, like, 5 lines, and every scene she was in a bikini top. ugh.
Day 3: Woke up to a pancake breakfast. Yummmm. Then we went hunting for crayfish, and there was an eel in the water! And it slithered across Brooke's foot. Gross. We didn't catch any crayfish sadly. I probably scared them away because I kept slipping on rocks. When we got home, we rode bikes, showered, ate, went to Ikea. I <3 that store. Then they drove me home. It was a fun weekend.
Today: Mass, Coll's house, pool, Missy's house. No one bothered to tell me we had volleyball. O well!
Tomorrow I'm going to Maine! We're flying halfway, driving halfway. I'll write about it when I get home. Gotta go, bye!

Ah, if there's one place I could pick to live in the entire world, it would be Bar Harbor, Maine. That is the most amazing place I've ever been to. We did so much stuff there. You get two feelings in Maine: a nature, woodsy feeling, and a salior-ish, salty, fisherman feeling, if you get what I mean. There are 3 things you see a lot of in Maine: lobsterman, motorcycle gangs and lobster buoys. I swear, everywhere you look you see one of them!! Ok well here's what we did:
Day 1: Flew to Manchester, NH. Then we drove to Bar Harbor, but we stopped for lunch in Kennebunkport for lunch. The president's vacation house is there. There are a lotta nice houses there. So we got to Bar Harbor after 4 hours. Our hotel was nice. That night, we walked around and ate dinner at Donohues. I looove walking around town. Everything is so close together and the harbor is right off to the side of town. I like to call it "quaint," because it really is without the hustle of tourists.
Day 2: Woke up early and went on a nature cruise. We saw 3 bald eagles and a pod of harbor seals! It was amazing. I love riding in the water. I like the smell of the air and watching the waves go up and down. It's beautiful. I wish I had my own boat. I would be on it all the time. Ok so that nite, we went to Cadillac Mountain. If I could put a house on that mountain, I would live in it. I love climbing the rocks. The mountain is made of pink granite. Then we went to dinner.
Day 3: Woke up. Went to this really cool store called "Fire It Up." It is this place where you paint your own pottery and they fire it up for you! I made a sushi plate and a light switch plate. It takes a while to fire it up, so they're sending it to us. So after that we went on a whale watching cruise. Now, the previous days when the boat was out they say 7 humpback whales and 2 finbacks, and a Mola Mola fish! That's my last name lol! So we thought we would see a lotta whales. We saw squat, nil, nothing, nada, just endless water. I was sooo disappointed, as whales are my favorite animal! Last time we went to Bar Harbor we saw 9 whales! I was so sad, but we got a refund that doesn't expire so that's good.
Day 4: Woke up extremely early to go on a 4 mile hike on Cadillac Mountain. It was exhausting but it was fun and a good workout. That nite, we went back into town. We really went into town everyday, becuz our hotel was rite there. We walked practically everywhere, so that was good.
Day 5: Went home :( I shall miss you Bar Harbor, my future home. lol. The flight home was good. Good times there. I'll never forget it.
Today was good. I have field hockey camp from 8:30 till 11:30. I was so hot and sweaty and gross! Ewwww. After that, Coll came over and met Kylie and Kelsie, the new babysitters. We did make-overs, played cards, fun girly stuff. It was a blast.
O yea, Coll mite get to come to the Green Day concert! Sweet. After that, I was on the computer for a lil bit. Then I went to volleyball, and this one girl was being such a bitch. There was only 5 ppl at practice. So we had to pick sides, three on tow. And this girl was like "Camille can be on other team." And then when I was on her team, she said "Camille serve first." Ew, those girls think they rule the world. Yea, so I was pretty quiet after that. Well then again, I usually am around them.
So coach was treating us to ice cream, but I didn't wanna go. Sally said, "Camille do you wanna come?" She's so nice, she's nicer than those other girls. And Marie acted as if I didn't exist. Hello, wasn't I the one who stayed with you when you were in a fight with Meg? Didn't I fully support you? I guess she's pulled an Anikan and gone over to the Dark Side. But anyway, I didn't go. I went to Models with my mom instead and got some sports stuff. So that was my day.
O yea, Miss Penza's my teacher! UGH. She doesn't know how to talk or teach us! It's gonna be a loooong year. Well I gotta hit the hay, field hockey tomorrow. Bye <3
