I've had this shoebox for over 18 years. Its been in various closets, basements, and under a few beds during this time. Over time, this shoebox has been filled to the brim with old notes (the kind you used to pass in class) from friends, crushes, and classmates. I know that one day I'll probably lose them, just as I've lost other things I would never have wanted to throw away (Voltron, transformers, the original Nintendo - you know, the important things!), so I thought it would be fun to randomly (yeah, right) grab a note to post here and share. Its funny how things seemed so important in school. Names have been changed to protect the innocent from crushing embarrassment.
Jacob,
Hello! Good Morning! Sorry your so tired but I am so hyper.
Yes, I talked to my mom about the ball and she said the only way I can go is if I get princess which is unlikely so I don't know but I got her to say if I do I can probably go with you so that would be cool. No, I didn't know Jack is/was planning on asking Shelly to go steady with him but thats really cool I'm happy for them.
My weekend was long and boring, except for Saturday night when I went to a dance but even that was bad because I accidently got home a little late and I'm restricted from the phone for a week and I can't really do anything for three weeks.
OH NO! I have a forming zit and its not fair!!!!!
What do you need to talk to me about? Please tell me.
What about the ball. I mean, what do you (want) to talk to me about.
Well for Christmas and my B-day...I don't like telling guys what I like because its deffinently not cheap. I know its something you want to do but I can't let you spend money like that.
Yes Shelly was really upset because I guess Chris told Shelly that my mom liked everybody but her. Oh, that reminds me. you guys don't have to worry about calling her "Mrs. Pears" anymore just call her "mom" she likes it.
well, I gotta go.
love always,
Amy
