Dear Diary,

I met a boy today in the bookstore.  His name was Eric.  He was strange, handsome, mysterious and cheeky all at the same time.  He recommended me a book, which so far has been incredible.  It's funny, filled with action and has so many characters I find myself relating to.  Each chapter ends with a cliffhanger and the plot is brilliant.

The boy said he knew I would like it, I wonder how?

I've had crushes before, there was Joe, Max and Taylor but this feels different.  It was instant, even now I can still feel the butterflies in my stomach!  He's really handsome and confident ... and a little weird if I am to be completely honest.  He seems like a charmer.  I really hope I see him again, he must be new to the area.  

In other news, dad wants me to start taking Cello lessons like mum use to.  I told him at 16 I was too old to start taking music lessons.  But I agreed nonetheless.  I don't really want to learn the Cello, but with mum gone I feel as though I have to, to make dad happy.  You never know, I could become a famous Cello player one day and sell millions of tickets.  Yeah right lol

After dinner, dad left for London.  He's staying the night there because he's speaking at some conference early in the morning so it's just Jasmine and I in the house.  I'm sixteen now so I can legally be left alone at night now.  However, Jasmine stinks really bad, I took her for a walk earlier and she must of ate something dodgy.  She's been farting all night.  I tried spraying perfume on her but that somehow made it worse.

Anyway, it is getting late now.  I better get some sleep.  I'll talk to you tomorrow.

Bye.
