11/18/86
Later that
night Alex and I stayed
up until 1:00 watching
movies. The next day
I didn’t do much except
sleep and water my
grandparents garden. I went
to mass that night.
Today I went to
mass, watered and
got $25 for the week.
I’ve been
depressed lately. The
people in my gym
class put me down
because I’m not
good in sports. Some
of them call me
“beastman!!” I got
my report card
today.
I got an A in PE, an A
in Photo, an A in history,
a B in English, a B in Spanish,
and a C in Algebra.
I am struggling in Spanish
and I hope that I can
keep the B.
11/27/86 Today was a great
Thanksgiving, much better
than last year. I remember
when I had the flat top,
last Thanksgiving we were
at Aunt Doris and Uncle
Godfrey’s, (God rest his soul)
turkey we ate gross
turkey for lunch and
Mexican food (yuck!)
for dinner. Then we
watched Rocky IV. This
year we (Mom, Dad,
and Mike (Mike went with
Matt to Point Mugu at 6:00)
Grandma and Goompa,
Bernia and Mary Ann celebrated
Thanksgiving at Grandma
and Goompa’s house. We
ate turkey, stuffing,
mashed potatoes, and
candied yams (first time
I ever tried them,
they were pretty good too!)
I had a lot to
be thankful for.
I thankful for. I
think the Lord that
we all could be there
(Goompa was feeling
pretty low a little while
back) I hope that
Grandfather fully recovers
from the bleeding he
had had. I have
decided to tape
Star Trek every night
to make a media collection.
What is life, but death
And, what is death, but a
rebirth of life.
The end is in itself, but
a new beginning, while
an old beginning is but
a new ending.
2/24/87 I haven’t written
for a long time, but
I want to record the
event that happened tonight.
It actually snowed!
For the first time in
11 years, it snowed! We
played in the snow and I
hope it snows
more so we
don’t have
to go to
school
tomorrow.
Note: When writing the
beginning of a story
put the character in
to a dangerous
situation at first, but
have him reflect
on his past
circumstances that
led him to the present
situation or at least
or have another
character or another
narrator telling
a story.

Grayson was an Asper, a
person who is genetically
engineered to use Psi powers.
He was fleeing from Earth.
Yesterday I heard a noise.
It was so loud it ruined my poise.
I looked up from my studies
And spied some pudgy buddies
Playing with their dirty toys.
“Get against the wall, Earth
man,”
The Altrusian roughly pushed
me up against the wall, although
human the Altrusian
I never liked Altrusians. They
looked like a cross between a
blob of slime and a wart-
hog and smelled like it too.
They felt like the owned the
galaxy.
