What is in there?

It's my own diary.

I started writing in the sixth grade.

It's a day by day account of how I got here.

I really had a lot to say.

Hello, world.

Or should I say Dear diary, My name is Elena Ophelia Canary.

I'm 12 years old and I live with my brother on my mother.

That's Sasha, my loyal friend, and Joey Feldstein.

Your love has been painted since, like kindergarten Shop E was just trying to stay afloat in these tumultuous middle school waters.

My daughter, she could be a little intense.

You have toothpaste in your mustache in my what things are changing.

Change might surprise you thistles.

Sam, we're dating.

Change is figuring out the new normal.

Your family needs you.

It doesn't feel great encroaching on my family contributions.

No one could ever replace you.

And when the change is really big, I'm lucky I don't have to face it alone.

Middle school.

It's tough.

This is a time to discover the things you find fun.

Mrs.

White Fire.

We were just leaving balance.

I hate having no idea what the future looks like.

No one has everything figured out life is always going to throw you curveballs.

What matters is how you handled every challenge we face.

We face together every step forward we take, we take together and we are just getting started.

Not too shabby, Yeah.
