Allen Shearin, LaVern Ellis Roy

Today was a pretty nice day all in all

Thursday, September 19, 1968

Journal: Today was a pretty nice day all in all! Allen Shearin got my annual back (we thought it had been lost). Bruce Kyle signed it, and now Steve Stribling is drawing a little man for me in it. Becky Addington was real nice to me today, but I am still wary of what could happen (again!). I found out today that Art Ashby is a Christian – he is in my World History class. He is a lot like Steve Stribling, but I think Art is a real neat kid! Well, must go now – so much is coming up. I will try to keep you informed somewhat!

P.S. Mom and I went school shopping last night, and I got the most beautiful wool skirt (plaid), white turtleneck sweater, and orange-red turtleneck, plus school shoes and a neat purse. So long for now!

I only have time for a line or two.

Journal: I only have time for a line or two. This last week has been really hectic what with school starting, having assignments all ready, and babysitting Friday night (also Saturday afternoon). The first week of school has really been fun, though! We got our last year’s annual Saturday night, so I guess I’ll have to take mine to school to have some kids sign it. Well, tomorrow is Monday, so I must go to bed now, but before I do, here are some highlights of last week: Allen Shearin in three classes, frosh initiation, compliment on looks from Bruce Kyle, babysitting Friday night until 4 a.m. Saturday morning, dinner at Frank and Merrylee Kruger’s Saturday night in honor of Sherrie’s 11th birthday, getting annual Saturday night, frosh-senior tug-of-war (seniors won – YEA!), Sunday church and evening services really neat, seeing Linda and Dave who came from Long Beach, California area (relatives in a way).

So long for now!

Today was the first day of school

Monday, September 9, 1968

Journal: Today was the first day of school – really neat! I wore my 4-H green jumper and blouse with my baby doll shoes. Say, Allen Shearin is in two of my classes, and he is a senior! Real neat. There will be a revival this year as God is working in our student executive council. It will be such a great year! Tonight we had a small meeting for the banquet – I can feel Satan trying to destroy it, but God is bigger, so our banquet, through Christ, should be really great! Dan Emry is changing – starting to be led by the Holy Spirit. I must still pray for him and Judy that they might be better off because of it. Dan is my friend – I know that for sure now, but I don’t want Judy mad at me, so will have to be very careful. God is leading in such a wonderful way in so many things. I must be faithful to do my part (no matter how small!) Sometimes I get such a swelled head. I get sick of me along with others! God can help me! I know He is so very REAL! So long for now!

P.S. Got a real neat letter from Ursula Stienke today – real cute! So long!
