Dear Journal,
Well, only two more days until Disney! Sorry, I haven't written in a while!! I had fun with the Harpers last week. I haven't seen Bethie in a while. We've both been busy packing. But, I did call her yesterday! We are riding together(in her RV) for the first two hours. I do not plan on riding ANY roller coasters at Disney.
Sorry this is so short. I have to go!
Love,
Allie

Dear Journal,
Sorry I haven't written in a while! I have been busy... packing!! Where am I going? Well, I'll start with Saturday. I dropped of the necklace, and asked Bethie if she could come over for a while. Bethie's mom said that they were coming over to our house for dinner. I said OK and went back home. "Mama, why didn't you tell me the Bartons are coming over for dinner?". "Oh... well.. we thought it would be better for a surprise." I waited endlessly, until they finally came over. Bethie and me talked for a while, until our parents called us down. "Girls, we have to tell you something." Mama began, "We, the Bartons and us, are going to Disney World!" Bethie and I jumped up ad down, screaming. We had never been to Disney World! "When are we going?" I asked. "Next Friday." answered Bethie's dad. "OH MY GOODNESS!" Screamed Bethie. "Why did you wait so long to tell us?" "Well, this way, you didn't have to wait!" Answered Mama. So, that's what I've been doing! OH! I forgot one of the best parts! We are renting two RVs!! I can NOT wait! Today, which is Wednesday, we are going over to the Harpers.
Well, I have to go get ready.
Love,
Allison

Dear Journal,
I am exhausted! Why? Well, because the Dovers stayed until midnight! Emma was less shy. Since she adores drawing, we drew for a while. Then, we went outside and ate a popsicle.. It is getting SO hot outside!! After that, we made a few necklaces and bracelets. I made a pink bracelet and two necklaces. One says best the other says friends. They're for me and Bethie! I am going to drop them off today. And my mom says I can ask if she can come over for a while.
Well... I am about to go drop the necklace off- and hopefully Bethie can come over!
Love,
Allison

Dear Journal,
It is 4:30 AM. Why am I writing? Well... today and yesterday were very interesting. Yesterday, which was Wednesday, Bethie called! We hadn't talked in a couple of days. She told me more stuff that has happened to her... that freaky stuff about Sorin, Lockar and Plairlan. While we we were talking on the phone, my parents ran in the room. They told me I needed to get off the phone, so I could babysit. I told Bethie I had to go, and asked my parents where they were going. "To the doctor." Was my dad's short reply. Before I could ask why, they rushed out. Then Brittle and Rachel came in and asked were Mom and Dad were. "To the doctor." I said. "WHY? Why is she going there?" demanded Rachel. "That I don't know." Was all I said. Then, I tried to destract them. "Hey girls! Let's watch a movie!" Then I put on a movie about a princess. "I don't want to watch this." Brittle said. "I DO!!" yelled Rachel. Brittle went over to the pile of movies, and picked out a movie about cats and dogs. I don't know what kind of movie, or what it was called, because I had never seen that movie. Anyway, when our parents came back, they were both smiling. My mom told me she was pregnant! We are all so excited. We have been wanting another baby! Mom says it will be her last one....
For celebration, we went out to eat with several families. The Harpers, the Randalls, and the Dovers. The Harpers have a son about my age, Hayden and a daughter, who is Brittle's age. Her name is Courtney. The Randalls are Hannah and Lola. And the Dovers have a daughter who is my age. Her name is Emma. She is VERY shy!! Anyway, after we went out to eat, the Harpers came home with us! Courtney and Brittle mostly raced in the backyard. They LOVE running. Mom says we are going to have to get some kind of running team (or whatever it's called) together. We don't have one in our homeschool group. If my friends will be there, then I'll join too. But I WILL NOT join just for the running.
Anyway, I haven't written about when Hannah and Lola came over and few days ago. aven't written about when Hannah and Lola came over a few days ago. I will cut it short. We Hannah talked a lot. Lola and Rachel baked cookies. NOT the kind that you just pop in the oven. The 'made from scratch' kind. Umm... they didn't have any direction, because they refused from the moms. Hannah and I didn't eat one. You should've seen them!!!!!!
Anyway, it's about to be 5, so I better go to sleep. Tomorrow (basically today!!) is Friday! Mom says I might be able to invite Bethie over!
Love,
Allison

Dear Journal,
Ok this is really creepy! I mean Sorin and all that is really weird! I feel like I am having a bad dream!
Sorin didn't come last night and I was kinda worried. I don't know where he is. Oh well, I whistled over and over and over last night ,but nothing happened. I don't think there is a Geap or a Lockar or a Plairlan. I don't really care ether. I think that it was all a coincidence that Georgie got me that ice cream and that Allison got better. I mean Georgie would do that if she wanted to she is nice like that. Allison could have been getting better and not have known it. I am is sad that I ever believed it.
Love,
Bethie

Dear Journal,
I was going to the store with Josh this morning and on the way there I noticed there was a car following us! ( I had THE DRESS on)
Well I told Josh and he said that no one was following us , someone was just going to the same store as us.
Do you know how some cars have a little license plates like things on the front of the car? Well I saw that the car's said Sorin!
Well then that got me to thinking! When we got to the store , I told Josh that I was staying in the car. When he went it I went over to the weird car and a boy that looked about 16 was leaning on it. "Hey! are you Sorin?" I said, "Well, yes....... Yes I am. Bethie, are you aware that Plairlan can hear our conversation?" Sorin said. Sorin has a very weird accent. "And who is Plairlan? Sorin, who are you? Why do you follow me non-stop? Not to be rude but your kinda freeky! I mean you follow me every where!"
"Ok, one question at a time! 1. Plairlan is the guy who is trying to steel your power! 2. I am your protector. 3. because that's my job! Let's go over here so HE can't hear us." So I went with my protector Sorin, over behind the store. Sorin was tall, but not much taller than me. I am really tall. Sorin had dark hair ,dark eyes and was kinda cool looking. " Bethie, I need you to let me show you how to use you powers!" "My powers! Sorin, I don't have any powers! It's THE DRESS!" I said firmly. ''Well meet me behind you house tonight about 8:00. I'll teach you! Bye Bethie!" Just as he said that he dashed around the side of the store and as I looked around to try to see him, he wasn't there. His car was not even there! So I went to Josh's car and the minute I got in and closed the door Josh walked out of the store caring a coke in one hand and pushing a cart in the other hand. "Here Beth." He said as he gave me a coke and a bag of my fave chips.Josh can be nice if he wants to. On the way home I told him about Sorin. The rest of the day was normal.
Love,
Bethie

Dear Journal,
Oh, I am so excited, but freaked out at the same time. I left my shirt at Bethie's house. So, today, she brought it over. As soon as I put it on I said 'I wish I wasn't sick'.. and then, I felt completely better!! It is VERY freaky.. but kinda cool. I really don't know what to think. Well, tonight my Aunt Penelope is coming over for dinner tonight. I am cooking potato soup and my mom is cooking lemon squares for dessert. Also, Rachel's friend from church, Lola, is coming over this afternoon. Her big sister is 11, and she is coming over too. Her name is Hannah. She talks too much... Hahaha....
Well, my mom says I have to clean the kitchen. I made pancakes today.. I guess I forgot to clean the mess up.
Love,
Allison

Dear Journal,
Allison just called and she said she wanted me to bring her shirt over. Well I brought it over and she put it on. As soon as she put it on she said "I wish I was not sick" Right when she said that her face was not pale any more and she said her throat didn't hurt any more! Cool Huh? Well Rachel thought it was because of the shirt! I think that Allison and I have clothes that have magic powers!
Love,
Bethie

Dear Journal,
I am so sad that Allison is sick! She left her new shirt at my house.Georgie has been begging to put it on.
Can you guess who is here? Will! : ( Josh has him over like every day! Guess what just happened? I wished for a bowl of ice cream and Georgie brought me some! Georgie is a really sweet sis. I told her that I wished for it and she said it was because I was wearing THE DRESS! I don't think that THE DRESS has any power though. That is just crazy! Sorry this letter is so short I'll right more later.
Love,
Bethie

Dear Journal,
Today, my family was planning on going to the mall, after dinner. Everyone, especially me, needs some Summer clothes. I was looking forward to it! But, this morning, when I woke up, I was freezing!! So, I put a jacket on.. then I was sweating hot! It was most unpleasant. And then... when I swallowed, my throat hurt SO bad!! So, I went and told my mom. I have a fever.. so tonight, instead of going to the mall, I get to go to the doctor. I am not looking forward to it.. at all! But, at least I don't have to do school!! Haha...
Well, my mom is calling me to take some medicine. I hate medicine. I would rather suffer this horrible sore throat and, now, a terrible headache... well... never mind. I guess I'll go take the medicine and be appreciative..
Love,
Allison

Nov. 24, 2008 - The Party
Sorry I forgot what day it is.
Dear Journal!
The birthday party was really fun! We made cup cakes and we just had so much fun! Rob acted like he was being tortured.
He can be kinda torturous himself! Anyway, Allison got to spend the night! Since Alllison and I live so close to each other we just walked home. As we were getting her mail we saw some one stick some thing in my mail box! (that should tell you how close we live to each other) As we ran over there to try to see who it was the person ran off and well we didn't see who it was.
The ''guy'' had put a letter in the mailbox saying:
Dear Bethie,
Iam trying to help you. The guy who broke your window is trying to get THE DRESS from you, he is very close to you all the time. But so am I. don't worry he won't hurt you with me around. If ever you need help just whistle. Your dress has powers that everyone wants. I am helping you so the we can go together to defeat Geap! As long as you have your dress on you can do ANYTHING! But be careful!
In Lockars name,
Sorin
Well me and Allison were just kinda freaked! People don't just believe in stuff like that with out seeing it ya know! Who is Geap and who is Lockar? And Sorin what kinda name is that? Well the rest of the sleepover was normal, although Allison and I were sure we were being watched.
Love,
Bethie
P.S. I wore the dress to bed

Dear Journal,
Well, Rachel’s birthday was lots and lots of fun!
When Bethie came up, I told her how much I loved her dress. “Thanks,” she said, “But you won’t believe this..” And she told me that she got this note… I think by her window. Saying ‘Just because you got the dress first, doesn’t mean you get to use it’ or something like that. Very confusing. But, I wonder, WHO could it possibly be? A few minutes later, while we were in the kitchen eating our cupcakes, I remembered something, “ Oh! Telling me about your dress reminded me to tell you that I got this adorable shirt at the mall last week! It is green with little jewels around the collar. It is so cute!” Bethie jokingly rolled her eyes. Anyway, after the party Bethie asked me to spend the night! I asked my parents and they said yes. I am not going to tell the details of the sleepover, because I am tired and I have to do my school. But it was so fun.. and very interesting. I don't want to write about it, because I am so tired! But a sleepover like that, I will remember for ever. Well, I have to go do my school. I haven't done it yet, because I just got back from the sleepover! One of the great things about homeschooling- you can do it whenever!
Love,
Allison

Dear Journal,
Today is Monday, which is my least favorite day of the week.The weekend is over, and Monday is just a plain, boring day. Tuesday will be... not so boring. It is Rachel's 7th birthday! Rachel is my youngest sister. My other sister is named Brittney, but we call her Britta or Brittle. She doesn't care for the name, Brittney. Anyway, more about Rachel's birthday. We're inviting the Bartons and my Aunt Penelope. They're going to come over at 6:00 and we're going to have dinner, then the adults are going to have coffee, while the kids decorate cupcakes. I don't consider myself a 'kid'. I don't think Bethie is one either. I think of us as 'teenagers'. Anyway, my mom says I have to do my math.
Love,
Allison

~Me~
Isn't that so creepy! I mean what does it mean by USE it? Does this person mean wear it or what? It is so creepy! I hope I can crack the mystery! and I hope nothing wiil happen to me!

Dear Journal,
My name is Allison Poppy and I am 13 years old. I have had this journal for a while, but... I lost it for a bit. I found it when I was cleaning and re-orginazing my room. We also re-painted it. It was light green, but we painted it light purple. My closest friend is Bethie Barton. She is my age, but 2 months younger. And, we are both homeschooled, which is very neat!! I will write more about that later.
I have nothing else of interest to write about. Tomorrow we have church. Unfortunately, we don't go to the same church as the Barton's. But I am going to ask my parents about getting together with them...soon....
Anyway, my mom is calling me. I have to go unload the dishwasher. Fun, fun!
Allison
