Diary entry.

When I was young, I would try to keep a diary, as I'm sure most girls did. I would try to be so faithful and write in it every night. But then, it would get late, or something would come up and I wouldn't get a chance to write in it. Pretty soon, days would go by and when I would finally pick up my diary again, guilt would overwhelm me and I would feel so sad that I've neglected my diary. There have been many entries that started with me asking my diary for forgiveness. Those entries usually started:
'Dear Diary,
Sorry I haven't written in here for so long. I can't believe the last time I've written in here was (whatever date).....So many things have happened since then.'
....and then I would go on to list the major things that have happened since my last entry. 'I'm in 7th grade!....'
When I was in college, my freshman year, I decided to try the diary thing again when I had a huge crush on this boy, I decided to log all of our interactions, and for one entire quarter that I was obsessed with him, I did just that. I found the diary among my college things and when I read back through the entries, I wasn't sure if I was glad to have those memories, or if I would have rather had them fade away.

When I decided to look at my blog, I noticed that I've neglected it for so long. I looked at the date and was so shocked that it's been over a year since my last entry. And of course came the inevitable guilt for not writing. So with that I offer this:

Dear Blog,
Sorry I haven't written in here for so long. I can't believe the last time I've written in here was October 1, 2009
....So many things have happened since then.
I got married :)
