So. I haven't written in this journal for months. So here goes.
You better go to the bathroom now.
Well, when i last wrote, i hadn't started my JV softball season at EHS. It's over now, and now I'm playing Redwood Empire. In the last four months, i have been grounded several times, so it's basically been four straight months of punishment. But, in April, I got grounded worse than I ever have been before. Lemme explain the situation to you. I was going to my best friend's house for April Fools' weekend, and we planned on having a lot of fun. So, the night I got up to her house, I found out that she had some weed, and she asked me if i wanted to smoke some of it with her. So i did, and i had a great time. The weed wasn't that great, in fact it didn't even get me high, but it was a fun night. So then i go home, and write a letter to my cousin about my weekend. Me and her are very close. Three weeks slip along, and then i decide to call my cousin to talk to her. So i do. My sister gets on the phone with me, and it isn't long until we are re-accounting my April Fool's weekend(she was there, just didn't smoke any weed.) Little did i know, my dad was listening on the other line, seeing as he's a nosy bastard and such. Me and my sister hear him on the other line, and we figure that i'm in deep shit. Two days of walking on eggshells pass, and i thought that i might have gotten away with it. SURPRISE! he was just prolonging my agony. So now, i am grounded until my parents "can trust me again" and that's gonna be a while. To make it worse, i cant see my friend for who knows how long, so i have been emailing her in secret and calling her on friends' cell phones at school. To make matters worse, a bunch of stuff is hapening to her that she needs help with, and i need to be there to help her get through it. But my parents don't care. Her sister is dating a 20 year old(her sister is only 15), her brother ran away, her other brother moved out, and she's doing shitty in school. But i cant even say hello to her without my parents grounding me for another year. WHAT SHOULD I DO???? I'm seriously considering running away to help her and just letting my parents suffer. Advice would be greatly appreciated.
