Dear Diary,
Today was my first day of college and so far I have made no friends. My only friend is Madison, she was with me in the 5th grade. I don't think she wants to talk to me because she had a hard time thinking that she just lost her family in the terriost attack in New
York about a week and a half ago. I have tried very hard to keep her happy and keep a smile on her face but.......nothing works. I hope she can go back to being a fun, enthusiastic, and cheerful person.
