Wed., Oct. 1, 1980--Well, today I decided to go grasshopper hunting for Mr. Scerbo, but played soccer after I found out you had to squish their heads.  But I played a good game of soccer.  I was goalie, they scored one and we scored two.

Fri. Oct.3, 1980--Today at 5:00 a.m. I WAS ten.  Out on the playground I played soccer and I got massacred.  Not in soccer, though.  Anthony saw my journal and man did I get it.
Mon. Oct.6, 1980--Today, nothing happened, so I'm writing about Saturday and Sunday.  I got a lot of presents.  One of them is Empire Strikes Back figures.  And a bike, a digital radio, shirts, and a huge silver coin collection.

Thur., Oct. 23, 1980----Today in lunch (well., I'll just use a couple of names) someone crumpled a "Scooter Pie" and passed it down and somewhere along the line it was thrown.  It was thrown about 15 minutes until as I hear Greg threw it on my food, and I was so mad I threw it on the table as hard as I could.  Oh, and before that Sheeran threw the Scooter Pie away.  But Gary took one of his and threw his.  After that  Mrs. Simpson came over and made me stand up on stage after the whole class was throwing it.  Most everyone stuck up for me but it didn't help.
