A couple of days ago, Hadley had received a message in her Twitter inbox. It was from the girl who had bullied her back in middle school, and had put her through hell. In the message, the girl had asked Hadley if she was available to meet up at Starbucks this afternoon so they could talk, and so this girl could have a chance to apologize to Hadley. Since we would be in Houston for our final show of the tour, Hadley had agreed. Even though my best friends, girlfriend, and I are proud of Hadley and respect her decision, Henry and Scott will be going with her. After all, they want to be there for Hadley.

After the last slow dance of the evening had stopped, Cecily's Uncle Mark had made his way up onto the platform. After greeting the guests, Uncle Mark had told Cecily that her birthday present had just arrived. Afterwards, he had instructed everyone to head to the driveway.When Cecily and everyone else had reached the driveway, Cecily stopped dead in her tracks. Sitting in the driveway with a big bow on top of it was the red 2016 Mustang that Cecily had been dreaming of for months. Even though it was what she had wanted, it was not just the car that had her excited. It was the people standing by the car that had Cecily weak at the knees.

Dear Journal, for as long as I can remember, Monica and Jonah Tate, as well as their son, Eli, have come to Texas to spend December 23rd-December 26th with my family and me. This is due to the fact that Monica and Jonah have been best friends with each other since Kinder-garten. However, Eli and I have never gotten along. In fact, we would bicker 24/7 every time they visit. However, I am going to make it a point this year not to bicker with Eli. After all, it recently occurred to me that I would bicker with him, because I am in love with him, and always have been!-Ellen XO

Easterwood Christian Camp was a camp about twenty minutes outside of Santa Fe. It was a camp for kids ages 12-18. Long before they began their careers, Rhiannon and Shea would attend this camp with their youth group from church. Up until last summer, Rhiannon and Shea had attended the camp each summer. The only reason that these two had not attended camp last summer was because they had been on their U.S. tour. This year, however, the two of them were finally able to return to ECC with their youth group!

As the dance progressed on, Ellie and Shepp-ard held each other close and looked into each other's eyes. As they continued to dance, some-thing hit them. They were both in love with the other one, and had been ever since their duo came to be. Maybe, it was even before they had become a duo. Why it had taken them until now to see it, I don't know.

"It must be big if the staff is keeping quiet about it.""Ag-reed!" Marcus, Riker, Lindy, and Sara piped.

When Mom and Dad first told me back in April that we would be moving to Denver in June, I was both excited and nervous. Ever since I was two years old, I have considered Colorado as my second home. This is because the three of us have spent every summer there for as long as I can remember. However, I have never considered the thought that my family and I might actually live there someday. On a different note, starting over at a new school and church terrified me somewhat. Would I fit in with my new youth group and peers at school? Would I make new friends? Would my best friends from back home, Lisa and Sarah, and I still keep in touch? I truly hope so. Would I be bullied just like I had been in the past? Goodness, I hoped not. That was the last thing that I needed. As soon as I had arrived, however, I learned that I had worried for nothing.

As the three best friends made their way to Drama, all they could talk about were today's auditions for Wicked. They would be taking place during Miss Stevenson's class. However, auditions had already taken place in her previous classes, too. With this, the stakes were high as to whom would be chosen to play the role of Galinda, Elphaba, and Fiyero. "Do you guys think that I have a chance to be picked to play Elphaba?" Dinah asked."I think that you have a great chance" Doug smiled. "You have a killer voice.""That you do!" Dylan smiled, as well. "Just like Doug, I think that you have a great chance!"

Opening up my eyes to the bright sun, it takes me a little while to process where I am! Slowly, it comes back to me.

"Mom, why does it have to hurt so bad?" I sobbed, burying my face into my mother's shoulder. "It just does, Honey." My wonderful and amazing Mom whispered, stroking my pixie styled brown hair. "I wish more than anything that I could take your place and deal with the pain.""Believe me, Mom, you don't." I sniffed, looking up at my Mom. "I wouldn't want you to, because the pain I feel right now is a pain that I would not wish on my worst enemy."

From kinder-garten to 8th grade, I attended Henson Acad-emy, a k12 school for students with learning disabili-ties with my sister. While there, I met Jamie's and my best friends, Sara and Ashley, as well as the rest of our good friends, all of whom made up our gradu-ating class!

Today, on the day of her high school gradu-ation, I have the honor of watch-ing my sister, and her twenty nine other class-mates gradu-ate!Even though Callum and I have to fly back to LA tonight, I would not change getting to see my sister, family, best friends, and good friends for a day, hour, or minute.

"How are you feeling about becom-ing a Gordon Glad-iator again, sweet sweet?" Mom smiled and asked, as she drove me to school. "Ex-cited? Ner-vous? Both?""Both definite-ly!" I piped. It has been a long time since I have been in a Gordon uniform, as well as the fact that it has been awhile since I have seen every-one.""I under-stand how you feel, sweetie, but don't you think that every-one will be happy and sur-prised to see you? After all, these people have been best friends and good friends with you for years.""You're right, Mom, and always know what to say." I smiled, as Mom pulled up to the curb of the middle/ upper part of Gordon.Giving me a kiss on the cheek, Mom smiled at me, and said, "I love you, sweetie! Have a great day!"

Dear Journal, Every summer since I was eleven years old, Mom and I would fly to Orlando, FL from our hometown of Los Angeles, CA, to spend the first Monday-Friday of August to stay with Mom's lifelong best friend, Tara, and her tall, sexy, gorgeous toned, blonde haired son, Talon, at their mansion in the beautiful beach town of Henley Beach, Florida, which is located twenty miles outside of Orlando. Due to the fact that Talon and I found each other annoying, and bickered constant-ly, this trip was something that I have NEVER looked forward to. As you can imagine, before arriving at Aunt Tara and Talon's house, I had my doubts that this week was going to go well, at all.However, once Mom and I got there, my doubts slowly started to fade away, and here are the reasons why:1)When Mom and I arrived at the mansion, Talon greeted me with a big hug, sincere smile, and looked genuinely happy to see me.2) He willingly assisted me in taking my things up to my room. In fact, we stayed there for a few minutes laughing and catching up)3) We talked at lunch, laughed, and had partici-pated in great conver-sation, something that we had NEVER attempted or been able to do before.As I prepare to settle down for a nap, I cannot help but, dare I say it, happy. As you can imagine, my mind is starting to change itself about this vacation, realize that this trip could be cool and good for a change, and finally... there is a good possibility of Talon and me becoming real and genuine friends.-Lana XO

Making my way across the platform to receive my diploma while every-one clapped and cheered for me, I could not help but feel accom-plished. The diploma that I was receiv-ing now marked the com-pletion of my high school career.

On a different note, I also had a new and amazing career ahead of me! Truth be told, life is great, and I have alot to look forward to!
