Journal Entry 1: August 20, 2016

I would have never imagined that I'd be in a situation like I was, FOR A GUY! Yes, before you experience something you never have before, you feel as if it would never happen to you. I felt the same way until I experienced something I never had. I'm Karmin, and I'm going to tell you the story of how I met the man that I fell head-over-heels for; So, pop yourself some popcorn with extra butter and some chocolate-covered peanuts (unless, of course, you're allergic), and sit back and read the story of him and I, Too Young.

Journal Entry 1: August 20, 2016, Day 1 of Sophmore Year:

The first day of sophomore year, just like any other first day, everyone is happy to see one another, happy for class, then by the end of the first month; everyone's ready for the summer again, and teachers are keeping students up all night with their ceiling-high stacks of homework. THEN, the drama starts to flood the halls and stain friendships with the reputation of rumors. Relationships ripped apart by dishonest partners and friends who reopen the stab wounds in your back. Once it's happened a few times, you kind of get used to it. Getting hurt, being betrayed, and lastly, being alone.

You try your best to keep the pain from showing, but one wrong word and everything that you've ever endured; will come pouring out of you, like a dam bursting with water; but instead of water, it's all the memories that you've locked away never wanting to remember. Yet, you're always thinking about them in the back of your head. Waiting; for them to break through your wall and show you their ugly faces once again.

Thanks again journal for listening; it seems you're the only one.
