I dreamed about Spartacus but I was trapped inside a closet and there was a map, a map of the world that kept showing but it was some mysterious dream map that didn't make sense. Then I dreamed about school. I had my IS math class like now but I was still enrolled at Kennedy and I had three classes- photography, a math class and an art class, I think. I didn't want to go to my classes and I just hid. Eventually, I went to my math teacher to sort everything out and everyone was so disappointed in me. There was also this old woman who brought me to this room with statues. She had a grudge against 'the king' and his house.

I wanted to write something unique, something poetic and beautiful that would make him like me. I kept asking my mom what I could write. She didn't know. The only thing I could think of was "Roses are red, violets are blue and I like you." And so I wrote it. I put it on his desk at lunch. I was found out. He and his posse relentlessly questioned me. The gem of our little argument. Me: I know you sent you it. Him: Who? Me: NOT ME! I was a very intelligent child, can't you tell? Anyway, my love for him faded and so did my friendship with what's-her-name because she never gave her love... may 27 2011 ∞
