So basically
for any age readers
Dear diary,
So basically, today is THE DAY! I can’t believe it! I managed to be confident enough to audition for the summer performance! Although I messed up and was pretty down about it, mum and dad said, “at least you tried your best, and your best is all you can do!” I guess they’re right, I’ve done it now anyway, who knows, I might get in! We are doing Charlie and the chocolate factory, and it’s my last performance at my junior school, so that’s why I want to get in so bad. Have you ever messed up an audition? Sometimes, for me, it helps doing something I enjoy, like dancing. Dancing means the WORLD to me, maybe you play an instrument and feel the same about that. It helps keep your mind off the negative side and focus on the positive side, whether its dancing, or playing the piano, doing something you enjoy ALWAYS helps.
I felt sad about my audition.
I felt proud that I tried.

day 2
Dear diary,
So basically, today was fun! In the afternoon, we went to get some new toys and essentials for Cosmo. He’s our new puppy who’s arriving soon. I’m SOOO excited! We went to pets’ corner, a shop for dog supplies, and there were so many options as to what we could get him. A whole wall was covered in different collars of all shapes and sizes. I used to find decisions hard. Lots of people ask me what I want, when really, I don’t mind. I don’t want other people to feel sad when I’m not as passionate about it as they are. Personally, it helps when I write down a list of pros and cons (good and bad) to help me decide. What do you do? Sometimes writing things down can help you visualise the outcome. If the negative overpowers the positive for example, then don’t do it. That’s what I think, anyway. You shouldn’t feel like you must keep your opinion to yourself, everybody wants to hear your ideas, so share them.
I find making decisions hard.
But I know I can share my opinion.

Dear diary,
So basically, today was relaxing. This morning, I started to feel sick and dizzy. I didn’t know why I felt so terrible, but I did know that I had to cope with it, its just a natural thing, everyone experiences these sorts of things. Life is full of wonders and I’m always doing fun stuff. Whenever I can, I’m with my friends and family, having loads of fun. However, I understood that today wasn’t the day for all of that. Today, I had to relax, take some time to slow up and let my body understand what’s going on, or at least that’s what mum said. Now I get it, I don’t have to be doing stuff ALL the time, but not doing anything isn’t that good for you. Therefore, today I did take some time to rest, and by bedtime, I felt much better.
I need to be busy all the time.
I can identify when I need to relax.

day 4
Dear diary,
So basically, today was awesome! Do you remember a couple of days ago when I talked about my messed up audition, well, I have some good news. After a long weekend of waiting, I finally received my results of whether I got into 2nd auditions or not. You guessed it, I got in! I walked to the studio with my friends (who also got in) I was called up to perform. I did it! I gave it my absolute all, and cleanly read out Mr Wonka’s line. Now, I just need to wait for my results, wish me luck!
I was negative about my 2nd audition.
I was so pleased with what I did.
