Day 13: someone you wish would forgive you

I'm sorry for what I've done and what I'll do.  We have a hard relationship, but it's great.  :)  It's hard for me to say sorry sometimes because you seem so much better than me.  Remember when you asked me what was wrong?  I was jealous of you.  Just feeling sorry for myself.  I do love you though, never forget that.  And I do hope everything works out with your friends, sometimes I just need a little me time to get over myself.  Let's party.  Or ignore me, either way.


Loves.

Day 12: the person who has caused you the most pain in your life

Dear Childhood Dentist, 


Ouch. Yeah, I don't care if parents couldn't come back with patients because of "policy."  I'm not sure if the multiple times you scraped my gums were on purpose or not.  The office smelled bad.  Like death.  The clowns on the walls were scary, not funny.  I was scarred.  The only good memory is the sugar free gum you gave me.  But it usually tasted bad and only had two pieces anyway.
At least my teeth look good.


Love, Erin Chapple

Day 11: someone who died

(I randomly picked an obituary from this past week: http://www.legacy.com/obituaries/deseretnews/obituary.aspx?n=mae-sherwood&pid=144852920)


Dear Mae Sherwood, 
I love your name.  It combines two very good bands and it's pretty.  I want to use Mae as a middle name for one of my future daughters.  You sound like a fantastic woman and I bet you loved telling your love story.  Can you teach a sculpting class in heaven?  I'd love to learn.  
Love, Erin

Holy, first day of school.  Last first day of high school.

That rocks.  It was fun, I guess.  I got some homework, talked to people, ate lunch and got sick, had a blast (I think) in Newspaper. I need to buy a new calculator because apparently you need a super spiffy one for Statistics.  

Day 10: someone you don’t talk to as much as you’d like to

Dear you, 
Can we please talk more this year?  I know it's not as easy as it used to be, but it'd be grand if we could get past our differences.  Even though it's not awkward, I feel like we just make small talk most of the time.  I think we'll be able to make up for lost time, but it'll definitely take more than a day.  Soon, we'll be on our own and it'll (hopefully) be easier to take time for each other if we need to.  Life is too weird.  Love you, miss you.  Talk to you soon. :)
Love, me

Things that bug me today:
* ridiculous nicknames (esp. on children)
* sarcasm
* people not believing in me
* that look


Things I love today:
* it's gorgeous outside
* temple!
* relaxing/organizing/homeworking on my own
* talking to my mommy (it's actually been a while...)


And for some viewing pleasure (because I don't think I've shown my siblings yet): my final history project and lovely editing skills.

Day 9: someone you wish you could meet

Dear Ingrid, 

I wish I could meet you.  We could chat and sing and chat some more.  

You're too rad.  Maybe after your concert I'll chase you down (not really, I don't want to get in trouble).  Teach me how to be cool.

Love, Erin

There are too many people I want to meet, but I guess I'll meet them all one day, and she's just been on my mind.
