Dear Diary- 2/3/13 Today absolutely was the worst day of my life. I feel sad from the bottom of my heart because my father was found dead.

I feel this foreign feeling starting to well in the pit of my stomach from all this grieving. My father was a great King and good human being who served his country well‚ I hope to be just as good

Elizabeth has blackened my name throughout the village and‚ worst of all‚ made John bend at her will. No matter how much I plead‚ he will not come close to me‚ even if it kills him. I wish that he would look up at my window and be proud of doing so. I said I have more than hope in us‚ but I am starting to think it’s not true as long as Elizabeth is alive. Would the Lord please forgive me for

My CAS Diary – Mountain bike riding with Mr. Wright This rather splendid activity I involved myself in took place in the rural district of Yarramundi. I accompanied ‘the boys’‚ Ben Irwin‚ David Wilkinson‚ Jordan Willis‚ Jarrod Quigley‚ Bailey McDougle and John Wright.

this village like a bridegroom to his beloved‚ bearing gifts of high religion; the very crowns of holy law I brought‚ and what I touched with my bright confidence‚ it died; and where I turned the eye of my great faith‚ blood flowed up. Beware‚ Goody Proctor - cleave to no faith when faith brings blood. It is mistaken law that leads you to sacrifice. Life‚ woman‚ life is God’s most precious gift; no principle‚ however glorious‚ may justify the taking of it. I beg you‚ woman‚ prevail upon your husband

My Dearest Diary‚ It is hard to fathom the fact that Mrs. Fullerton’s house will be demolished by tomorrow. Danny and I had grown quite accustomed to the sight of chickens running astray amongst her apple and cherry trees. Nonetheless‚ the community members believe it is for the best…everyone is clearly excited about resale values increasing. Personally‚ I am disgusted that a vibrant old lady such as Mrs. Fullerton has to uproot her entire life due to the fact her existence is seen as an “eyesore”

Dear Diary‚ It’s not fair! It’s just not fair! What was Dumby’s fault? Why him? Why does god always have to punish the good? I understand that Dumby was wrong by breaking into the pub‚ but it’s not his fault. He was upset because he didn’t get the McRae medal for best on ground‚ and his stupid cousin took advantage of that. Couldn’t Big Mac see that it was Dumby? Dumby doesn’t deserve to die like this. He was good from the heart. He was the one who helped me the time when our team was playing
