General Macarthur’s Diary Day 4992‚ Afternoon Good Afternoon‚ friend‚ Finally on my journey to Soldier Island now. Everything is refreshing and relaxing except for this damn old train I am currently in‚ shaky like a rocking chair and slow as a tortoise . For God sake‚ my destination is really no distance at all as the crow flies‚ I wish I could get off now and start travelling on foot. It had been 30 years since I had a proper chat with them‚ my old crony mates. I wonder who exactly is coming

April 27‚ 1984 Dear Diary‚ Today I was eagerly waiting for Patrick to return home from work. I counted the minutes as they passed‚ and as always‚ at 5:00‚ I heard the crunching of the gravel outside the slam of the car door and the key unlocking the door. I got up and went to greet him. I placed a kiss on his head and went to make drinks for us‚ a strong one for him and a weak one for me. I continued knitting‚ knowing he doesn’t like to speak until the first drink is over. He finished his drink and

Journal entry May 15‚ 1898 After much debate and many arguments between the family members‚ we had decided to forget the woeful life we lived here in Italy and move to America.

Dear‚ Journal I can’t believe that awful‚ no good man‚ John Proctor. He had the nerve to pick that whining wife over me. I am far better than that low life Goody Proctor. We have vastly different traits; we are like day night. She is a naive‚ simple woman. I on the other hand‚ am an adventurer. I am smart‚ healthy‚ and certainly far from simple. Why‚ any man would be lucky to have me as their wife. Elizabeth is a old hag who should just disappear off our land. I am a beautiful‚ young‚ healthy woman

I pry my eyes open after yet another restless night. For a fleeting moment‚ I feel peaceful as my body lays completely still and my thoughts are silenced; unfortunately‚ the brief moment of serenity quickly fades‚ leaving in its place a sense of gut wrenching guilt. These days‚ it seems to be the only emotion that I am capable of feeling. Images of Duncan’s bloodied body appear in my mind and I feel a wave of nausea hit me. My fingers instinctively wrap around the candle by my bedside. I let out

Diary Entry 1 I could tell Tai’s grieving period would be considerable‚ unless I found someone to take Elton’s place right away. The next day in class a new guy named Christian came into my class and he was hot. Okay‚ okay I know I said I would find a guy for Tai‚ but I suppose there’s no harm in finding one for myself also.

I had heard one of the captains talking about the thousands of men who had already lost their lives to the
