Sixth Grade Splotchy's Frustratingly Incomplete Travelogue

I'm not going to be chronologically reprinting my journal -- let's jump forward a bit, shall we?

In mid-April I took a trip to Chicago - here is my recap.

I never did elaborate further on the Chicago trip.

Panic City Bad, Cool City Good

Page two from my sixth grade journal.

There is so much packed into these faint pencil scratches -- I suffer injury, decide to attempt to make a connection with a friend (and forget), struggle under the pressure of my own procrastination, and for no apparent reason switch to cursive handwriting.

Welcome to the Protoblog

I haven't scanned anything in a while.

Here's the first page out of a journal I kept in 6th grade. The journal was actually a class assignment we did for credit.

If I remember correctly, you had to keep up with it on a daily basis, filling up at least a half page per day.

You can see I got a "1" on the first page, which I think was not a good thing -- probably due to my not fulfilling the half page requirement.

I'll be posting more pages from this journal -- it's clear to me that I did not enjoy recording my thoughts then as much as I do now, though I did find some inventive ways of stretching my very small journal entries.
