Hi again. Today Rochelle came to basketball practice. She is so good. The tournament is Saturday. We have to be at the church at 6:30 AM *groan* That's also the day of the temple trip for Mom and Dad.

My feet are sore. It feels like someone is =ssttrreettcchhiinngg= them.

I'm listening to Corey Hart. I'm very tired, so I'm going to to go bed or fall asleep writing in my jour...zzzzzzzz

February 12, 1987

Hi. I had to wait to write in this journal to finish my other one.

In school we get a mid-winter break so we get tomorrow Friday the 13th and Monday the 16th off. Yea!

Tomorrow Kate Frond is going to spend the night. Will Vincent is spending the night with Michael. Today I got 3 new pictures of Corey Hart and two of Tom Cruise.

I like about one or two million guys, but they are all too old for me, but I don't care. I still like them.

Today I had home-ec club. I'm so tired. This is my third journal. My first one isn't even almost finished, my second one I finished yesterday, and my third one is soon to be finished. I LOVE to write and put pictures and things in my journal.

See you tomorrow.

Your self,
Steph Day

Hi again. My mom didn't get me a new journal because they didn't have any. Oh well.

Today Justin and I went to McDonald's down town. It was fun.

I've been SO bored lately.

I LOVE this song! Oh I can't help falling in love with you. Guess who sings that version. That's right Corey Hart. The only problem with him is that he NEVER smiles (small problem). I love Corey Hart.

February 6, 1987

I got my wagon finished.

I didn't write because I forgot because I was up until 11:30 babysitting my brothers.

Guess what. Yesterday when I walked into Mr. Parker's room, I didn't know who the sub would be. I was the first one there. The sub looked up. It was Bro. Fuller--Mary's dad! He was good and he subbed for Mr. Parker again today, too.

It's finally Friday of my perfect weekend. To top it off, Monday I can be glad to go back to school because Melinda had pictures of Corey Hart for me.

We went to the Cub Scout banquet today. We had spaghetti and garlic bread. My breath smells awful.

My journal is almost full, so I'm getting a new one soon, maybe tomorrow.

In Art, I finished my dot art picture. I hope I get a good grade on it.

Well, I have to go, so see you tomorrow.

Hi. Today Rochelle came to church with us. I think she liked it. It was fun.

Dad, Walt and I went to Mamaw's house. The Super Bowl was today. The Broncos (yay) and the Giants (boo) were playing. The Broncos were getting creamed and smeared all over the turf. The game is still going on.

I like Tony a lot. I mean a lot--more than usual.

January 18, 1987

Hi! First I'll tell you about what Tony said. Michael told him that I like him, and Michael said that Tony said he kind of thought that, but I think he still likes me.

Second, me and Michael went to a stake fireside. It was BOARING! We didn't even have food, but it was still pretty fun.

We are supposed to have a snowstorm of 4-6 inches, but it is delayed. HOPE + PRAY THAT WE GET OFF SCHOOL TOMORROW!

Yesterday I was VERY, VERY, VERY upset that I couldn't go to Youth Conference. Today I asked dad if I could go. Oh, I forgot to tell you why I can't go. It's because of a family reunion in Massachuchettes. Everybody will be there, but I still wanted to go to Youth Conference BAD. Dad said I would go to Youth Conference and fly to Massachuttes when conference was over, but it's not definite. I hope it is and I can. Right now!

PRAY FOR NO SCHOOL TOMORROW! I hope it snows all night. See you tomorrow.

Sis. Bergstrom had a baby boy.

Yesterday Mary spent the night. We only stayed up until about 2:00 this morning. I just babysat Katie Gary. She's so sweet.

You know we could have a snow storm tomorrow. I hope so.

OK, today was Michael's basketball tournament, so I told him to tell Tony I like him, but I haven't asked Michael if he remembered. I hope so.

I'm finally getting over Ralph Macchio. That's just because I like Corey Hart.

Tomorrow is church so Michael won't forget, if he did today, so I'll tell you what happenes.

Hope for 2 things:
1.) Mike likes me
2.) We get a BAD snowstorm and can't go to school tomorrow

Bye

January 16, 1987

I've had this journal for exactly 1/2 a year.

I love Cory Hart.

January 13, 1987

Guess what happened with Tony. He didn't say much because Michael forgot to tell him. Oh, well. He'll find out eventually.

Today was singing tests. I actually got a B+. I was happy. On my Science folder I got an A, and on my science book report, I also got an A. I have to do 50 push-ups and then go to bed. Sorry I couldn't write much. Bye.

January 12, 1987

Hi. Today was a good day. I had a good day at school, and after school the missionaries came for dinner, then I set 4 Personal Progress goals, and I got my health articles cut out and they aren't due for 2 more days.

Michael is going to tell Tony I like him. I hope Tony doesn't ask me to go with him, because I would probably say no and hurt his feelings AGAIN.

There isn't much to say but today was a good day. I'm getting over Ralph Macchio and starting to like real boys.

Oh! Before I forget, guess what! Only 4 more days of Mr. Gilman's class, and next on to gym. I can't wait to have no more Health class to worry about! But, there are also only 4 more days of Shop. Boo! I'm reading The Outsiders again.

I'll let you know what happens with Tony tomorrow. See you later. I have to go before I get in trouble. Bye.

January 11, 1987

Hi, Sorry I haven't written in so long. I told Michael that I like Tony and I told him to tell Tony that I like him. I have to finish reading a book for Science tonight. Bye.

January 3, 1987

Hi. Today I made a giant yo yo bear. I told Mary that I like Tony. I thought she would tease me, but she didn't.

My mom got her wisdom teeth pulled. Her jaw is all swollen. Tomorrow the schedule in church is changing: sacrament meeting, Sunday school, then young womens.

January 2, 1987

I can't talk long. The slumber party was a blast. We stayed up until Kate's brother Chris got back from his paper route.

It's 10:52 right now. Tomorrow is Saturday and Monday we go back to school. Booooooooo! I still like Tony Matthews (and Chris Frond).

Bye.

December 13, 1986

Today I worked at the church and me and Rochelle made giant yo you bears. They are about 7 times bigger than regular. Their smallest parts are bigger than the biggest parts on the regular ones. I have to go.

I like Tony.

December 11, 1986

Hi. Today is a great day. Tammy, Sis. Vincent, Craig, Kendra, Chris and I went to help at the stake Christmas dinner. My mom was in charge of it.

Mr. Gilman was not at school today!!! Rejoice!!!

Craig is so funny. He is nice.

Today in 1st period, Mrs. Carter gave me back my theme. I got an A and she wants to read it to the class.

I have to go. Bye.

December 7, 1986

Today I got thinking, what if I was going to move to Houston, and what my friends would do, and how much I would miss them, and what it would be like never to see Mary, Kate, Susan, Tony, or Jane or anyone else here again. I would die! And never to have activities with my youth group again, or never going to Grandma and Grandpa Day's house on Sundays. It would be terrible!

You know I still like Tony. I keep staring at him but he doesn't seem like he likes me anymore. I keep talking about him here, but nobody knows I like him.

I bore my testimony in church today.

I love ALL my friends and my Tuesday night activities and I NEVER want to move.

M-Miserable
O-Owful
V-Very bad
E-Extra terrible

F-Fantastic
R-Radiant
I-Inspirational
E-Extraordinary
N-Never ending
D-Devotion
S-Sensational

Good night.

November 27, 1986

Today is Thanksgiving. Grandma Ferris came today. It was fun. I went to a family reunion and I still like Tony.

November 26, 1986

Today we started our tape cases in Wood Shop. I got more of my rocket done in Science and tomorrow is Thanksgiving. Grandma Ferris is coming tomorrow. It will be fun.

I STILL like Tony Matthews. I probably won't be able to write for a few days. Oh yea! I have a surprise slumber party for Tempest the day after tomorrow! Yea! Bye!

November 23, 1986

Today is my dad's birthday. He is oooooold! I keep teasing him. He is 34 (I think).

The program went well today. I still like Tony Matthew's. Today Michael got the priesthood!

November 21, 1986

Michael is having a sleepover for his birthday with Tony's little brother, Craig's little brother and Katie's big brother.

After the ward Thanksgiving dinner, Kate and Mary came over.

This is weird, I usually like someone for a few days, nothing much, then it drifts away, but I still like Tony. I keep staring at him and not knowing it. I hope he still likes me. I like him a little more now. After the dance, I FINALLY admitted I liked him. Bye!
