Dear Journal, It is the first day of winter vacation, and I could not help but feel excited Not only did my best friends and I win Nationals yesterday, and will be competing in worlds in May, but tonight is my high school's winter ball. I have the perfect dress, but I wish that I had the date. I miss Jake more than anything, and wish that he could be here tonight. Since he lives in Los Angeles, and is filming a movie there, I know that it is impossi-ble for him to be here tonight.
