Dear Journal,
Today is my sixteenth birthday... no one knows. I suppose it is just as well... birthdays haven't been the same since mom and dad died. Past tense there. died... gone... never coming back... it hurts.
Today I'm planning to sneak out. I found this wild stallion last month and have been working with him for a long time. Oh he is so handsome! And he is mine... all mine. My special friend and no one elses.... is that being greedy? I guess I've changed more than I thought. Nothing seems fun anymore... nothing thrills me... Amber is great... and patient with me. How does she always have a smile on her face? I could never do that...
Today I'm sneaking out and taking my stallion to the beach. I think he'll let me ride him bareback. There is a beach downtown I've been dying to go too... I guess I'm going crazy sitting in one place. You know what is sad? My best friends are a tigeress and a horse. I have no people friends. And I haven't seen Charlie for a while... she was sweet... I wish she was my little sister. I have no one to love besides my animal friends. Aren't I sad? Hey... maybe I'll met someone on the beach... I hope. Summer is almost over... do people go school around here? I guess I'll be homeschooled.
Reminder: think of a name for stallion.
Uh-oh... it's getting late... if I'm going I have to go now.
