ELA Journal Entries From 2013 and 2014

Summary:

So in Jr. High we did these journal things for ELA and I found my old journal and read some of my things that I wrote when I was 13 and 14 xD it's so cringy. I had no idea what OCs were so I just placed myself in the stories so be aware of my cringy loneliness.
I'm going to put the journal entry # and a short description of it. And if this gets any likes and comments I MAY write a few stories for the Free Write entries! ^w^
I'm also putting the date when I wrote the entries.

Notes:

(See the end of the work for notes.)
