Diary Entry: December 22, Age 17

As part of my Advent Calendar project, I am presenting excerpts from my actual teenage diaries!

What a stupid day! Geez. Okay, I wake up at noon, Patrick comes over, I get a fucking Chemistry deficiency notice in the mail (Merry Christmas!!!), P. and I go into White Plains, fuck around for several hours. Xmas shopping is a bust — I find an umbrella for my sister, big whoop .. get home, Dad semi-confronts me about my grades, we have dinner. I go over to Tricia’s, I call Jennifer, I go home, I read “The Book of Lists” until 3am, I write in my journal.

I’m only halfway through this page but I have nothing more to write about this thoroughly unproductive day, nor about anything else.
