Dear Diary,
I have some good news and some bad news.
First I will tell you the bad news.
Do you remember when I told you that all the newspaper packages we had, got stolen…well I did and I also told you that I had one more sheet that had a couple of small stories on it.
Well…..I finished those small stories and now I have nothing left to tell you.
And since I have no news to tell you…that means I won’t be writing in you anymore.
I mean…I will try to, but there won’t be any point.
I’m really sorry Diary.
But on the plus side…I finished writing my history book.
And now I can show mama and maybe even get it published.
Boy if papa was still here, he would have been so proud of me.
Well anyways…
I guess this is goodbye Diary.
At least for now…
I'll miss you :(
Love,
Samantha Jones
