…I hate the world.
I had the day off school today because of my illness.
It’s still the same.
It hasn’t got any better but it might have got worse.
I hate everything and everybody, especially MY STUPID EARS.
Why haven’t they got better?
This antibiotic medicine is supposed to work, but why doesn’t it?
I can’t tell whether it’s done anything to my cough because I can’t hear anything
because of MY STUPID EARS…
Enclosed within my diary at this point is the following self-portrait:
Twenty-five years ago today 
I always check in on your blog. Love reading what you got up to. And I hope the you gets better soon.
The 11-year-old me thanks you for your kind words!
