One more week! (till I'm 18)
Thu Mar 06 2003

Hi!
Today we had a two hour delay at school because of all of this ice, but me and the others waiting at the bus stop found out when one of their parents drove us all to school. So, what do I do? I take two metabolife pills with a large glass of pop when I got back home, and I already took three before I went to school for the first time.
In english, I laid my head down at one point, I don't know if I was sleeping because I felt wide awake, but when my teacher touched me to wake me up, and asked if I finished the questions we were working on, I got embarrassed because I missed answering three of them, and the only reason I took those pills today was because I have been having trouble sleeping again lately and I have been falling asleep more in school, and I got tired of all of my teachers yelling at me, so I took the pills for some energy today. So, i tried to explain it after class, because I didn't want to still have a teacher mad at me, and when I told her I didn't know why I fell asleep, because I had taken 5 metabolife pills in the morning for energy so that I wouldn't, her eyes got wide and she told me I could have a heart attack from it, because of one of the ingredients in it. She kind of scared me. The good thing was she said she'd rather have me sleep naturally then to do that, though I know she wasn't saying just fall asleep. I was stoill feeling that shakiness inside of me at the time, and told her that's what was going on, and she said my heart was probably really racing, and I know it was, but I wonder if she meant that could be a sign of a heart attack, or if it was just what was meant to happen, since the pills do speed you up. I love those pills,but I can see myself having a heart attack from them, if I'm not more carefull, because I almost had a heart attack in the 9th grade when I took 105 laxatives due to my eating disorder.
Anyways, I am turning 18 in one week. March 13th is my birthday, and I am very excited, but, and this is news since I haven't written in here in a while, I live with my Dad now, I have for about two months. One reason I've always looked forward to this particular birthday was because I could get the hell away from my mother. So, even though my wish has come true, I am still excited.
I think I'm feeling the after effects now from the pills, I'm so tired and I even feel slightly sick, so I am going to try really hard to treat myself to an early bedtime tonight. I just have to hurry up and get my stuff ready for tomorrow. Good night, readers/diarists! Sweet dreams!

    Oh, Mary, I'm sorry I missed your birthday! I was thinking about it earlier. I've just not been online lately like I used to be. (I've hardly updated my diary in a while.)

    It's hard to believe you're finally and really 18! I hope your life as a woman is excellent!

    Write me. Love ya.
