I was searching for a blank notebook in the bookcase today and out tumbled a tattered,blue composition book that contained a small journel I kept as a sophmore in HS. This particular phase of my lifecentered around a crush I had on a guy. It's filled with lots of melodramatic passages and agonizing "he loves me, he loves me not" and some really terrible poetry! It's awful! No, it's painful! No wonder I was so messed up in HS. Why couldn't I've been some brilliant but misunderstoond deep thinker! No, I was a stupid, lovesick teen that actually RECORDED it!
So, do I really need to keep this? I mean it's bad! I thought for a brief moment I could use it to show my kids some day that things sucked just as bad when i was in school. But I don't think I could even subject them to this dismal piece of "history".
I'm really thinking about shredding and throwing away. Can't think of any reason to keep it.

Sounds like we need to build a fire and have some smores with that piece of history!
