Dear Diary,
Today was an alright day, practice went well — only a couple small mistakes made. Small mistakes are (basically) the same as large mistakes though.
Yeah, screw this. I’m not making a “diary.” To be honest, I think diaries are pretty stupid. Why would I write about my feelings? I have a brain that I could use to think about all of that crap. Why waste paper on writing what happened throughout the day?
I may be missing the entire point of this stupid thing, but I don’t really care. Maybe I should ask Saki about this sort of thing? I don’t know.
I’ll try this “diary” thing for a month, and after that I’m done. The only reason I’m even entertaining this belief Shizuku has is because the diary was a birthday gift. Even though Shizuku annoys me, I still value all of her gifts. Don’t tell her I said that. (Even though diaries can’t speak? I’m not gonna think about it too hard.)
Also, I’m not doing that “Dear Diary” thing I tried earlier. I felt like throwing this thing in the trash.
Sorry for the negative-ness, today wasn’t the best day. Maybe I’ll tell you later, diary.
One little note before I sign off — Happy birthday to me, I guess? Self confidence or whatever.
Thanks for listening,
Shiho.
