It Has Finnaly Happened

Oh lord. This is so embarrassing, but Anya and I just spent too long laughing helplessly at it for me not to post. From ye olde diary, age 11:

Wednesday, May 1, 1991
It has finnaly happened. What, you ask? I don't like New Kids On The Block anymore. And it's their fault. It has been way too long since they've come out with anything new! Oh, they put out No More Games, sure. Big Deal. So they re-mixed a bunch of old songs. The "Magic" of thinking about them just isn't there anymore. Now my infatuation has turned to Gerardo. He is a babe. I have his first album, and I tape or stay up for every Friday Night Videos in hope that he will be on. Guess what time it is? 10:00 a.m.! I have a cold, and Mom let me stay home alone! I'm waiting for The Price is Right to come on. We won our first battle for battle of the books. That means two things - One: I will be busy two Saturdays in a row. The coming one is Young Authors conferance, and next one is the meet. Two: I'm gonna be on T.V.! The final meet is televised. And if we win ... Mrs. Johnson will take us out to lunch!!

Bye!

I can't really convey the glory of that "bye" online ... it was written in bubble letters, and each bubble letter (and the exclamation point) contained a different pattern. Besides the stellar musical taste, I apparently had an innovative system of capitalization.
