Dear Diary,

 

I’ve decided to start keeping a diary. You know, for documentation purposes. In case, like, I go missing… or something…

 

ANYWAYS!!!

 

Me and Ezra (my brother), we were doing our usual routine of him pretending to have a seizure in Walmart, and me pretending to revive him (not very morally correct, I know). The manager got wise and he called the cops on us.

 

Uh… I’m not getting into what exactly happened after that, but it was pretty wack. Apparently, Elysium was like the largest pot farm in the prairies!!! All the Elysian kids (including me and Ez) were on the news!!

 

So now they’ve sent me to this small school in Uranium City. It’s called Saint Cassian. The second I got introduced to the class (earlier today), the vibes got all weird. I don’t think they like me…

 

So yeah, that’s kind of a summary of the last week. It’s been a wild ride.

 

I’ll update you in a bit!!

Notes:

AAAA NEW FIC IDEA mostly while I get my motivation back. Since this is like an easier fic to write. I could probably write multiple chapters a day but don’t quote me on that

Lmk your thoughts in the comments :)

Dear Diary,

 

Today, one of the girls at school came up to me. She asked me if I was “some kind of lesbian”??? I don’t know what that means. I asked her what a lesbian was like, and she just replied “like you!”. Her and her friends started giggling. It’s really weird. This whole experience is weird. I miss home. Frick Legoland. Frick this crummy school.

Notes:

Anddddd the angst begins!!! Yeah, this fic is pretty angsty. What else do you expect from the diary of an angsty teenage girl like Penny?

Dear Diary,

 

Today I found out what a lesbian is.  Apparently, it’s a girl who likes girls, like, romantically. Am I lesbian? I don’t know. I don’t think I want to be. It seems like a bad thing. Why is it a bad thing?

 

Also, there’s this girl that just stands around near the girls that bully me. She doesn’t like actively bully me, she just stares at me. I feel like if I ask what her name is, she’ll judge me. Because how dare the “lesbian” talk to a girl. Ooooo, afraid I might try to kiss her??? I’m not what they say I am, I swear!!!

 

Ezra’s been a bit more closed off. I’m worried about him. He seems to be doing better than I am though!! (Hopefully. Please let him be safe)

Notes:

Wait until Penny associates the bullying with religion

Dear Dairy,

 

Sorry for not updating yesterday. It was pretty unremarkable. Crummy bullies, crummy teachers, crummy assignments.

 

But there’s this guy that I made eye contact with in the halls. Instead of glaring at me, he waved at me??? And smiled???? This is phenomenal!! He probably doesn’t know that people think I’m a lesbian.

 

He walks around in crutches that have space and cat stickers on them. I think cats are cool. I’ve always wanted to work with animals.

 

I also got pushed down the stairs today. I went to the nurse, but she just said to go back to class. This is ridiculous!!! I want to go back to Elysium!!

 

I just wanted to visit Legoland, not live in it…

 

Maybe this is all my fault.

I wrote and posted this during math class

Dear Diary,

 

It’s Friday!!! I can finally spend a few days away from this crummy school!!! Ez and I are going to go see the mall. Oh, by the way, he doesn’t know I have this diary. It’s kind of my own thing!!

 

There’s so much new stuff in Legoland. There’s a café, a mall…

 

Ok, that’s kind of it.

 

This town sucks.

 

Anyways, Ezra and I have been doing research at the school library. There’s so much weird technology!! There’s computers and phones??? Ez told me that most people have phones. I should start trying to get one…

 

We’re also finally in a foster home!! No more living in the school during the weekends!! It’s pretty okay, I guess. The other kids don’t seem to acknowledge me…

 

I still want to go back to Elysium. Too bad it’s burnt down.

Notes:

I remembered this exists. My favourite girlfailure <333

She doesn’t know much about technology yet Elysium sheltered her 💔💔

Dear Diary,

 

Today was better I think!! I stayed at home with Ez and he made a puppet show!!

 

I wish I could just never go back to that school…

 

I have homework. Ugh.

 

The people at the foster home are kind of crummy. Not the worst, but I miss my parents…

 

I should be in the slammer, not them!!

 

I feel really bad about it. It was my fault that they’re there.

 

:(

Notes:

Sorry for dying I went through The Horrors 🥲

Ignore Ez. I told him that snooping was rude. He told me “it’s not rude if it’s funny”.

 

Anyways, tomorrow is Valentine’s Day!!

 

On Elysium, we’d go around telling people how much we love them!!! I think Valentine’s Day in Legoland is more romance focused, though.

 

I always dreamed of finding a nice man to spend my time with, like in the books I read on the farm!!!

 

I don’t really like the guys in Legoland though. They’re all kinda mean.
