Diary Entry: December 9, Age 17

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

[backstory: i lived in new york with my father; my mother lived in california.]

Hello. Eeeeeh, what did I do today? I wrapped some Christmas presents, received a huge box from mom, chock-full of gifties that I can’t wait to open … I dread that I won’t be able to control myself and will open them and then will have to lie.

I’m so glad to have decided to turn my hair back to brown. People like Chris S like it the way it is now but those are opinions that don’t weigh too heavily on the mind.

    Well look at you, at age 17, being all self-actualized about the color of your hair. You mentioned your father was a psychiatrist, right? Maybe that’s why you’re so emotionally sophisticated.

    My dad was NOT a psychiatrist, and I (nervous chuckle) am extremely far away from being emotionally sophisticated.
