Diary Entry

Read Now

Write a Diary Entry from any Character's Point of View.

Yes...any character! Your post does not have to be a typical diary entry. You do NOT need to start with "Dear Diary". It could just be an inner monologue! Maybe it's a letter/petition from the buffalo at the zoo arguing for Maniac to get his own pen! (But don't use my idea, come up with your own!) BE CREATIVE!

If you're having trouble, think about a character trait for your character!
EXAMPLES:
-If you think your character is iconoclastic, they might be talking about how they dislike the government, and how they don't believe in segregation between the East/West End.

-If you think your're character is arrogant, they might be talking about how they love themselves, and how they are just better than everyone else.

YOUR POST SHOULD BE AT LEAST TWO PARAGRAPHS LONG. EDIT IT!

YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR READING EVERYONE'S POST, WE WILL CRAFT RESPONSES TOMORROW IN CLASS!

I love how you actually wrote it like a little kid

Christopher Utley

I really like you post because you were pretending to be a young child, but you took your post to the next level! You didn't spell everything right like an older child, you did obvious spelling mistakes like a young child would do.

I liked how you spelled things wrong and used different grammar it really made the diary entry better than usual.

Amanda

I love how creative you made your diary entry and this is how a little kid, like Hester, would write. Great job!

Dear Diary,

It's Grayson. Today has been an intresting part in my life. First of all, i've met a boy who's in the same situation as me. Crazy right! I don't want to be alone and the next thing I know I meet this boy in the buffalo's pen! Yes, you heard correct-the buffalo's pen. Yeah he might be a goofball but at least I have someone who cares about me. Maybe now I have someone to relate to and I can talk about some of my intrests maybe even his. There's just one thing that might be a problem.

Butterscotch crimpets. I know it may seem crazy but this kid is crazy for them. They cost so much money I don't know if I can handle the demand for em'. I feel like if i'm not so alone and I give someone else happiness and a friend that's the best thing any person could do. The sticky, sweet confectionery may be the thing that breaks me but in the end but maybe I'll give that kid a good future. What do you think? Oh, and before I forget- you know the kids name it's Jeffrey Magee.

Goodbye for today, Grayson

Julianne

Alexa, I liked how you made Grayson sound lonely when you said, "Yeah he might be a goofball but at least I have someone who cares about me."

"I am so mad right now! Maniac is planning to run away! I asked him how he would survive and he answered carelessly. I hope he gets lost and comes running back. At least I know he will. Now without him, bow wow is gonna start tearing my books again and Hester and Lester are gonna start coloring again! Anyways, he also untangled Cobble's know and got a certificate for one year worth of large pizza even though he can't even eat pizza! Cobble's corner was like a mad house! Everyone was clapping and yelling expect for me. I ran back home, but my encyclopedia fell apart on the way back."

"Maniac followed me by my scraps of paper. The only thing left was the blue and red binder. I was crying. I knew it was my fault. Before I could say goodbye, Maniac ran away. I didn't want him to run away. Things were better with him around. He ran away just because that stupid guy told him to back his own kind. I could hear cheering down Sycamore, cars beeping, and drivers hollered. I could also see the Cobras next to him and a bunch of East enders on their side calling for him to come over their side. After I couldn't hear any more cheering, I knew he was gone. Now with him gone, things are going to turn back like they were before."

Hi I'm Crunchy Carrot. " Pitter patter pitter patter."" Oh no someone or something is coming." A hairy hand is about to put me in the cage."what cahe though, hopefully not a carrot eater!" "No please don't put me in there hand, I'm living a good life right now please don't take that away from me." I feel my leaves begin to crinkle."BAM" I fell into a food dish." Not the buffalo pen!

I look around. Nothing is happening. That's what scares me the most. In five minutes I'm going to be eaten by a buffalo!! "Wait what's that."It's not the big hoofs of a buffalo." It reminds me of something but what." I wish I knew but what?" Oh no I'm being picked up by a large what?" I know what it is or do I. " I do it's a large hand." I'm in a buffalo pen. There shouldn't be hands in the this pen."It's a human." "Crunch" "ahhhh."

Hello my name is Eddie the frog. I was just sunning myself on a rock when suddenly the sun was blocked. All of a sudden, the creek started to...rise...!? I looked up from my little frog magazine and, splash! The creek filled up with a strange yellow liquid. I asked myself "what is that? ". Then out of nowhere I giant, gloved thing grabbed me.
As the thing picked me up I looked down and saw the yellow liquid wash away my favorite magazine "Noooooo! That was my last copy!!!". Then I felt the grip loosen. All of a sudden I was hurtling through the year! Slam!!! I huge stick hit me. Then a giant figure chased me around! I was so scared so I turned around and headed back. I hoped the figure would stop chasing me. But no, so I hit the white shape, and hopped on to the creek.
#WORSTDAYEVER!!!

Eva

3/30/2016 17:37:22

I liked how you mentioned the frog's name and what he was doing "I looked from my froggy magazine.." before the accident.

McNab

3/30/2016 17:38:57

Sorry, I didn't know you were so sensitive! Thanks for calling me a giant, that's a real compliment.

Ribbit Ribbit,

Today I was (ribbit) almost peed on, but then I was grabbed. The person that grabbed me is called McNab. He took me and squeezed me really tight and started to run. I thought I was gonna (ribbit) die.

All of a sudden I was thrown. I didn't know where I was going! In the blink of an eye, I felt a whoosh of air. Suddenly I was hit with a (ribbit) baseball bat. I went flying.(Really I only went a few feet.) It hurt so bad! I found out I broke my ankle bone.=( I had to go and see Dr.Ribbits and they gave me a leaf scan. Now since McNab threw me I have to stay in bed all (ribbit) day.

FROG MAN OUT

Julianne

3/31/2016 11:15:33

I liked how you added ribbit into your diary entry every few sentences. It really made it seem like it was from the point of view of a frog.

Nina

3/31/2016 11:16:08

I think that is awesome!! I love how the frog said ribbit all the time. I think it was really clever how you said Dr.Ribbits.

Rose

3/31/2016 11:16:16

How do you know who McNab really is?

Nate D.

3/31/2016 11:16:23

I like how you said that "All of a sudden..." and "In the blink of an eye". I like this because the frog probably didn't see it coming and it all happened so fast. Also I like how you said you got an injury and that you had to see Dr. Ribbits. I thought that was really creative.

Dear Diery,

It’s been getting lonely without Jefree here at the house. We don’t know what happened to him. I and Hester miss the bath tubs. Momy is yelling at me again for not going in the tub. After he ran away, everything went downhill.

Momy, Dady, and Amanda feel sad, and bow wow doesn’t even go on walkz. The dishes are all dirte, and everyone’s knots are stuck. Amanda won’t sleep in her bedroom and now she leaves her books out. Hester and me alwayz rip up her books, that is very fun. Although Amanda doesn’t like it.

When I saw chalk on the house, I wanted to write so I asked Momy if I could have a piece of chalk. I wanted to know why Momy was washing off the chalk off the house, I thought fishbelly was a funny word, me and Hester laughed.

Today, Momy told me that Jefree wouldn’t ever come back. I thought about my shoelaces (I looked at them too). I knew Amanda couldn’t untie the knots I tied when I was bored.

-Lester :)

Alexa

3/31/2016 11:09:07

I think it's very clever that you made it actually seem like Lester wrote the post because you messed some words up. I really liked your post.

Heidi

3/31/2016 11:13:00

I liked how you write it like a little kid and how it had mistakes in it so it seemed like Lester was really writing it.

Hester

3/31/2016 11:14:20

I realy do mis baths with Jeffrey.

Mrs. Beale

3/31/2016 11:17:23

That Jeffery had better get back here. You kids are driving me crazy. My hair is going to be gray before I turn 40!

Rose/ Red Sox player

3/30/2016 17:35:51

Oh, my glove! Who did that kid think he was, going up to McNab like that? Though, he looked so confident, maybe he would be the one to hit one of the balls McNab throws! Maybe he would be the one!
The first pitch, STRIKE! Second pitch, strike again! Third pitch, and it's more wilder than before! It's low and BLAM! The kid hits it out to center field (I'm starting to sound like an announcer)! Ookay, McNab was coming toward us while saying, “Hold it, runt, I can't pitch right when I gotta wizz.” After stampeding through us, he'd headed for the creak, by the looks of it. When he came back he was holding the ball, fingering it. Next thing I knew he was throwing the white, hard... Wait a minute, the ball's green and it has legs! What kind of ball is that?!
It's a frog! Oh my glove, that kid had bunted that frog! Off he goes, speeding to first, then toward second... Finally McNab jerks into action! He starts lumbering after the frog, hee, hee, the small, now dirty creature is hopping away from him dazedly, and he was not even close to it (but getting closing in)! Is he going to catch it..? The kid is rounding third and heading home, and the “ball” is going too! “Come on, come on!” I cried. The skinny kid who “knocked the world's first frogball for a four-bagger,” hit the plate in a cloud of dust! A moment later, he scooped up his book, and at the same time twirling the hat back over to Jimmy, and left! He is my knew idol!

Aidan

3/31/2016 11:18:23

That is funny how you said" oh my glove."

Jack

3/31/2016 11:18:30

I like how you used vocab words and how you wrote from a spectators point of view

Aidan

3/30/2016 17:37:37

“This kid will be an easy strike out. He doesn’t even play baseball and he looks scrawny and weak. Here comes the first pitch strike one! NO! ”In a blink of an eye the ball was soaring into the outfield and the kids were screaming. “What! It took off my hat! GET MY HAT AND GET THE BALL NOW! This next one will fly by him like a bullet. Here comes strike tw… What! He hit it again. I am going to drill him in the head with this next pitch. Right at him Strike one! Strike two Belt ball! Strike three knee level you can’t hit tha… What! He just hit it like a golf ball! I will be right back.”
“This next one is going to be funny. Know where is there a frog in this creek. There. This will have every one laughing. He it goes. HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! AAAAAHHHHHH! He bunted the stupid frog! I am going to make him eat this frog when he goes for home. I know what I’ll do I will guide him out of fair territory. Oh! You stupid frog you hopped my foot!” Maniac rounded third heading for home McNab Running behind him but Maniac was safe.” I will make that twerp pay for doing this he will never want to mess with me again.

You are MEAN!!! Why were you so mean to me?

Rose

3/31/2016 11:12:32

I like how you are so into McNab's character. Also how you stopped in the middle of words. It seems like he really is amazed. :-)

Makenna

3/31/2016 11:16:45

I like how you added details that he would really think of or say. God job!!!

It was a normal day on he edge of the creek when all of a sudden some hands came down behind me and grabbed me with the grip of a python. The kid took me onto the baseball field and got ready to pitch. "This is animal abuse" I thought to myself. then the kid pitched me to a kid at the plate who was surprised to see a frog coming through the air at him. I thought I was done for. But then I hit the bat but lightly because the kid layer a perfect bunt down the third base line and I landed on my feet. Then I hoped down the third base line an tried to get way from the kid who pitched me. Then he stuck his foot out so I hoped over it towards second base. The kid was rounding second right as I got past the pitcher. The kid rounded third as the big kid who grabbed me in the first place picked me up. Then it was a foot race to home plate the runner and the pitcher both running but the runner got there first picked up a book tossed a baseball cap to a kid and ran away.

Later that day I was hoping down a dirt path when a machine with two wheels,a gear and a chain came rolling at me so I jumped out of the way. Then a few minutes later a whole group of the machines came up but stopped before they got to me. Then in the blink of a eye one got off the machine and put me in a plastic cage. The brought me to a nature center and kids shook my cage and tapped on the glass for two hole weeks. Then they let me go.

Alex

3/31/2016 11:12:47

I like how you used all the words to describe a bike instead of the word bike, the part about the cage, and the tapping because kids definitly tap glass like that.

Today was very interesting. I woke up and ate my breakfast with mama. Then the zoo keeper, Addison took mama and I for a wash. The icy-cold water felt so good running down my back! when we got bact to our pen I whent to go take a nap in the little wooden shack. but what to myu wondering eyes should appear but a new friend to play with!
It looked very funny. The thing had hardly any hair at all! when I told mama she said "Auggie stay away from that thing. It is a shaved beast called "Human." but of course I didn't listen. When I saw the "Human" again after zoo closeing time he said "Hi little buffalo. My name is Jeffery." I knew that this human "Jeffery" was nice. i could tell. mama would have a fit if I told her this, i nuzzled his hand! I an going to wake up before mama jist to play with him tommorw.

Rose

3/31/2016 11:18:39

How did you understand Jeffrey?

Alex

3/30/2016 18:12:35

McNab

That maniac kid is so annoying! I mean who does he think he is! No one nobody can hit my fastball! He must have cheated I bet he used a special bat. But anyway he is so dumb can't he notice he is the white kid in the east end!

Then he starts walking right between the east and west ends. I was gonna beat him up right there, but he left.I need to find wherever he went. I wonder where he did go? But I need to find him and beat him up because you know beating a kid up is the same as striking him out. So, now I am going to try to find him. I'll get him.

Maniac Magee

3/31/2016 11:12:48

HA HA HA I hit your fastball!!! I hit your fast ball!!!
NA NA NA NA NA NA!!!!!!

McNabs cousin

3/31/2016 11:18:14

What someone hit your fast ball. When you through it at me my hair caught on fire from how fast it was. I agree that he used a special bat.

Nate D.

3/30/2016 19:10:01

Hello there! My name is baseball, otherwise known as the ball you swing the bat at in baseball. I remember this one pitcher, he was so bad, his fastball was so slow, I thought that I was a sloth. I had only heard about these sloths because I think I heard a tall human talk about what they read in a magazine.

Oh, and his curveball was horrible. It was as bad as a dog trying to write an entire book. It was so terrible, you would think it was a joke. I think the person's name was Earl. Earl Grayson. I hope I don't see him again.

McNab

3/31/2016 11:15:57

Hey Mr. Baseball! Who told you that my pitches are bad!I bet you can't even pitch ANYTHING AT ALL. Your name is horrible too! Mr. Baseball, more like Mr. can't pitch a ball!!!!

Mr.Cobble [Derek]

3/30/2016 19:52:57

Today was awesome. This weird kid came and tried to untie the knot. Many people came to see him untie it. He untied the knot for a couple of hours and then he took a nap! Then he woke up and started working furiously at the knot.

Finally he untied it all! Bugles, cap guns, sirens, firecrackers, war whoops, my store was a madhouse. Homemade confetti was everywhere. Kids were crying for autographs. Then the kid ran, shoving peoples legs picking up scraps. Nobody knows where he went, but I know I made a ton of money that day.

Colin

3/31/2016 11:02:35

It wouldn't be that awesome because now you have to give away free pizza.

Mr Cobbles cousin.

3/31/2016 11:16:17

What again! First I get a letter from your shoe lace and now one from you! This is crazy. I was supposed to be the one to untie it. :(

I ran away because Amanda's favorite book got ripped up.

It was a sunny morning on the baseball field. I ribbited onto the pitchers mound as the kids were playing ball. Strike three! One kid said. As the next kid walked up all the kids thought they knew what was going to happen because they just sat there not paying attention. Batter up! I was just about to start hopping around until, oh no! Croak!

Suddenly the kid picked me up! Ib the blink of an eye my slimy body was flying across the field. Please don't hit me. Please don't hit me, I said to myself as o was praying to land with both feet. A moment later I was safely on the ground hopping away to the lake. That was a close one I thought to myself.

2 minutes later... "Man that was a frog."
"You better beleive it."
"I knew it felt slimy and gross."
"Ya you think."
"That was wired," said Maniac.
"I know it was."

Cobles the SWAG knot

Ugh! My whole life was changed when that Jeffrey kid tried to untie me. But when I say my whole life CHANGED I mean it CHANGED! Here let me tell you a little bit about myself. I WAS the hardest knot to untie. It was hilarious watching people try to untie me! I loved this life. People would say " Oh my it's the cobbles knot ahh!" And I'd say to myself " Yeah you better run!" East end, West end, any end that tried to untie me had been so dumb they would of fallen for the old Marz Barz chocolate prank! But then he came, the most gullible boy of them all, Jeffrey Magee.

He showed up out of no where! Kids said he was amazing at untying knots, but Houdini tried to untie me and well, he even failed!" How could this scummy young chump untie me!" I thought. But I was really wrong. He came up to the table and started picking away at my mold!" What a looser," I thought. But then he took a nap! How foolish could this kid even be! Finally hours later he woke up and got right back to working on me and well, then he, he um... HE UNTIED ME!!! "Nooo!" I cried to my self. And now all I am is a lonely dirty piece of rope!

Alexa

3/31/2016 11:15:43

I really like how you did the point of view from the rope. I like this post because if the rope is alive this is how it would act.

3/30/2016 20:16:43

Dear Diary,
Something very exiting just happened. I was finilly untied! The first time someone tried to untie me all they did was poke me and scream at me. Yeah, they were 2 years old. Also once a professional fighter attacked me, but it was just a doll that randomly hit me. Sometimes people have actually tried to untie me. Like the time some old man came up to me with a
hammer and a nail. All that did was get me crusty. P.S it really hurt.
Now for the good part. Yesterday a young boy did it. He untied me! He really did! He did it in an odd way though. At one part he took a nap and he did not even pull hard on me he just lightly pecked me.( Thank you!) Also he just left after he did it. Yeah just ran away from all the photos and the autographs. Crazy right?
I would love if I was famous, wait I already am! Back to the story, now I am untied and happy as ever!
From, Cobble's knot

Mr Cobble

3/31/2016 11:11:14

Watch out I know someone who can tie a really hard knot!

Mr cobbles cousin.

3/31/2016 11:12:54

Lace oh lace. I wanted to be the first one to untie the knot. I also think its funny he took a nap.

August 8, 1964

Dear Amanda's sketch book,
Everything is changing. There is a new kid in our house. His name is Jeffery, but I call him Maniac. The people outside keep calling him "Whitey". I think that's stupid! He's not white, just a light tan. I don't think that it matters anyway. He's very fun to take baths with. Well, except for when he gets red polka dots all over him! But they look really cool, just like pepperoni. He's a great reader too. I love when he reads Lyle, Lyle, Crocodile. He also takes Bow-Wow for walks and he's a very fast runner.

Recently something happened though. Hester and I walked outside to play and we found something written on our house. It said "FISH BELLY GO HOME." It didn't sound very nice to me. When Amanda saw it she told us to run up the street and find Jeffrey and tell him we want to go running with him. She said that if we had any trouble stalling him she would come and help us. So Hester and I ran up the street and tried to stall Maniac while mom rubbed off the words. When we reached Maniac he agreed to go running but said he wanted to go back to the house and grab a drink of water first. Amanda came and tried to stop him, but that did work either and he came home to see "FISH BELLY GO HOME" written on our house.

But guess what? The next day Maniac untied cobbler's knot! It was amazing! No one had untied it for years. Maniac's really fun and I hope he doesn't leave.

PS: Someone else ripped up the book - NOT Hester and I.

- Lester

3/30/2016 20:29:00

My name is Hester J. Beale and I am the dirtiest person alive. It's been almost two weeks since I've taken a bath because Maniac left, but I'm going to get him back. "Hey Lester, we are going to get Maniac back and I have a plan." I said. "Firsts, we need to figure out how to get these potty pants off. Then we will put them in our room and when Mom, Dad, and Amanda go to get them we will lock them in. Finally, we will run away and find Maniac." I explained.
"Aaahhhh! They're too hard to pull off." I said. "What should we do?" Lester asked. "Get the scissors " I commanded. Rriiiiippp! "Step one done." I said. Plop "Hey, what's that smell?" Click "Step two done." I said. "Alright, now we just have to find Maniac" I said. "Maybe he's over th-Hester, Lester get inside now." Mom commanded. "Oops, I forgot the lock is on the inside of the door." I said.

Jack

3/31/2016 11:09:13

That is funny. That is a creative way to think of a post

Dear Journal, (This not a diary because it would of been girly)

Today was the best/worst day of my life! The good thing about it was that I got 35 strike outs in a row! But... then this runt came up to the plate. The runt acted like hitting my fast balls were a piece of cake!I got so mad that I tried to hit the kid with a fast ball. Once in the head, once in the stomach, and once in the knees. I thought " I will get this runt out, definitely!"

Guess what, he jumped out of the way and actually hit the ball! It was also a very clean hit! After this, it so... mad that I didn't even care about what I pitched to this runt. Guess what I actually pitched to this kid, it was a FROG! I didn't even notice it until the frog left my hand. The runt did no want to kill the frog so he bunted it. I thought I had the kid out but I made so many errors that the kid actually got to home base!It was an inside the park frog home run! The last part I was so close to getting this runt out. So I was running towards home, but the runt just got to home just before I tagged him. This made me so mad that me and a group of kids chased this runt right outta town.

Sincerely,
McNab

Dear dad,
Monday was the weirdest day in my life. My daily life is, I "wake up go to mamma for milk and go to the lean-to." Monday it was different. I woke up and forgot to get milk for the third time. I walked right to the lean-to. Just then I realized their was something else. No, someone else. I took a few steps back then walked forward swiftly. Suddenly I saw a tall, scrawny beast. It was just standing there as quite as a mouse. So I went on with my usual day.

The next day I go to the lean-to without caring about the milk. This time I did something different. I went right up to the long legged beast to see his reaction. "The creature offered me a carrot, but all" I "know how to deal with milk." It was very confusing to see a carrot but mama told me stories about her first carrot she ate. Then I "nuzzle the new, funny-smelling, hairy-headed animal. It nuzzled me back. Mama doesn't seem to mind." Now dad get this. It just left me! It hoped the scary wall a justed left! I thought he was kind, but nope. Well dad, I hope I get to see you soon.
Love,
Baby buffalo

Wow James wow. That is beautiful. I love how you did it from the baby buffalos point of view. Also I like how you wrote it to the dad since they never mentioned him. Finally, I like how you never said human you described it as someone elses.

That would be scary if you heard or saw some other beast that you don't know.

Dear Diary,
I am Mars Bar's candy bar and this is my first entry. So today I had the grossest experience. Someone else bit me on the other side. Mars Bar was eating me peacefully and just then, I was right beside someone else's mouth. But of course it had to be Maniac Magee. After that I knew it was going to come out of his mouth. " Wanna bite" said Mars Bar.
I was disgusted. " Please don't take a bite please, please, please" I thought. Without warning there it was " Ya sure" said Maniac. Then he took a bite. His saliva was slimy and a yellow color. It was like he knew I did not want him to touch me with his disgusting face. After that all I could think of was "EWW".

Eww! That would be gross if you were eating a chocolate bar then someone else's mouth was on the same chocolate bar you were eating.

I think it's funny how you did your post in the point of view of a candy bar. I think you did a good job on this post.

Hi there school book!
You belong to Amanda, right? Well if you didn't already know, you have reached the hands of her little sister, Hester. Which is me! I wanted to leave a note for Amanda so she could see if at school, but she has been upset lately after she kicked our dog, Bow Wow and flipped out on Jeffery (or Maniac as I call him). So I hope this makes her feel better. Even though I am confused on why people were telling Maniac he doesn't belong here, I understand why he would want to run away to a new family. But, whoever wrote, "FISHBELLY GO HOME" in big letters on our driveway, should go get something better to do because Lester and I did not think that was a vey nice thing to say about someone. I could be wrong, but I think they said that about Maniac.

Just a few days ago, Lester and I had to stand up for Maniac when a man told Maniac to go back home. But this guy didn't know what he was talking about! I told the man that he is wrong, Maniac lives with us and there is no changing that. I think that people need to notice Maniac might be different, but he is a part of my family now. He is so caring, and nice to Amanda, Lester and I so he deserves the same treatment back.

(I think you will agree with me, Amanda), I hope you have a great school day sis, see you at home!

Sincerely,
Hester

I agree Hester! Whoever wrote "FISHBELLY GO HOME" is in BIG trouble! This is great! I also think that Maniac is caring and nice. He is a great edition to our family!
