Dear Diary,

Well, today is going to be a day for me to relax and enjoy the day. All the hard working is over and all the busyness of the month is done. I am kinda happy but just a little sad that it's over. I have never enjoyed December and hated it at the same time. Now January is coming soon and then my birthday! I will be officially 18 years old on January 14 2009. I am happy about that. Finally, I have reached more freedom in my house hold.

So, I asked my mom if she could get me a laptop for my 18th birthday. That would be awesome. I scratched out the Xbox and all the other stuff I wanted. I just really want my own computer. If my mom doesn't get me one then once I get a job, I will just buy my own after I save a few paychecks. I need a laptop for college too ans school right now. It's so much easier to take notes and to do projects without asking my mom to use her computer. Plus, I can have my own things installed without having my mother's consent and I can go onto certain sites like myspace or where ever without having her yell at me or interrogate me. I really really want one now. But I guess I sound a little selfish.

Anyway, I cleaned my room yesterday! It looks so much better than what it used too. It was all cluttered and messy and dusty and dirty! Now I cleaned it and organized, changed the furniture around and made sure that the dust and mold were cleaned up. I actually like being in my room now. It feels more comfortable and nice. I still have a few shelves to finish up with and then I am going to put my Beanie Baby dolls on the shelves up high so they don't have to stay in the trash bag anymore. I love Beanie Babies.^__^

Also, yesterday, Ben came over and I made him dinner. I hope he liked it. I made ham with brown sugar and honey, mashed potatoes, peas, steamed broccoli, collard greens, and sweet rolls. I liked it but I hope he did too. I love him so much and I guess, I want to impress him somehow. You know?

Well, I am going to put Chapter 3 up today. If anyone is even interested in it at all. Okay. Well, talk to you laterz!
