Bob’s Story
1/10/30 (5:15pm) It’s 5:15pm. My name is Robert Baker and I am starting my journal right now. Why? Because I want to keep a record of my life and adventures. I hope I have lots of adventures in my life. Today I am sixteen and I just got my driver’s licence. I was born sixteen years ago, January 10, 2014. At 12:15am. I got this notebook for the start of school in September. That’s all for now. Mom wants me to go to the store and run errands...here we go. I am free!

1/10/30 - Dear Diary, I just got home from school. I have a lot of homework to get to. I wanted to say something in here while I was in one of my classes but I didn’t have my diary in my backpack. I forgot to throw it in before getting on the school bus this morning. Now I forgot what I was going to write. Mom’s calling me downstairs for something.
I’m back. Mom is going to have another baby. That makes six of us in this house as a family. I’m the second born. I already said all this before. Lets see I have one brother older than me, John Jr. (15). One brother younger, James Robert (Jimmy, Jimbo, Jimbob, Jimcabob). He’s about two years old now (Dec. 25, 2018) that was some Christmas present. My younger sister, Sarah is ten. I am eleven (12 on July 4, 2018). I was an Independence Day gift to my parents as they say all the time. Back upstairs to my bedroom. I share with Sarah. I already wrote that before. I got to stop repeating things I already wrote. It takes up space in this little diary (pink covered...there I go again). I guess I could get another diary or write in notebooks. They seem less childish. Or use an online blog. Yeah, I’ll do both. Or transcribe from the diary to my blog (save the writing on a computer and back that up on flashdrives/ thumbdrives/ CDs are becoming obsolete and who knows how long the internet will last...forever I guess unless the world ends). Blah Blah Blah. DO MY HOMEWORK! BYE! LATER:)

1/11/30 (12:22pm) I’m in the school cafeteria. Just finished eating lunch. Writing some of my day. Want to be out driving. I have gym next @12:45pm. I heard that we have to square dance to day in gym class. I’ll probably pick Ashley Adams. I like her and she is on the girls side. I spot her from time to time. She doesn’t know I exist. I have her pic on my phone. She let me take it. But I think she just likes having her picture (pic, for short) taken. She friended me on facebook etc./ &tc. so I am confused. Does she like me? Does she know I exist or what? Or does she just friend everybody. I think I’ll bring it up in gym. See what’s up. Later.

1/11/30 It is 12:22pm in my lunch period. Had gym before lunch. I’d rather have it after. What’re you going to do? Got my period during. How embarrassing! Wearing shorts at the time. White shorts. Called mom and told her. She can’t come. She doesn’t need to. I’m not a baby anymore, hence the period to prove it. Blah! Headache here. Mom’s pregnant and now I am impregnable (spell-check here). Finish eating and then sit in the gym and watch them square dance between classes.
Saw an older boy at 12:40pm. Don’t know his name. Never saw him before. He’d be in the H.S. part of the building. We share the gym & cafeteria with K-12. He’s talking to Ashley Adams. She’s an 11th grader. So maybe he is too. He is cute...handsome. There’s something I like about him already. He’s tall and strong looking. My hormones are working overtime here. Calm down girl-woman. Settle down and breath. Try to get his attention. Put this away and do something. Later...bye.

1/11/30 (7:15pm). My homework was easy today and we (me & mom) had pizza & soda delivered. I wanted to go and get it but she didn’t want me to drive in the snow and ice. Whatever. I’ll have my whole life to drive. Who knows how much time I’ll have with her. She is like 50 years old (9/11/80) correction she is 49 until September 11th of this year (2030). I wonder what the future holds for me and her (us). She didn’t meet my father until she was 32 and I came along about 2 years later. My father was an old man of 40 (5/21/72) when he met mom. He was killed by a
