Authors' Note: This is a story about when I was about 4 years old and I went to my uncle's wedding and I caught the bouquet.
Dear Diary,
Today
was the worst day of my life, first of all, I had to wear a hideous dress, and
second of all, my shoes hurt like crazy. And to top it all off, I was wearing
so much hairspray that it actually hurt to touch my own hair. Also, my mom went
a little overboard when she put my makeup on… I may be four, but I know that I
was wearing way to much make up.
The reason for all of this nonsense was because today, I
went to a wedding. ALL of my cousins were there… Including the ones that are in
college. I always feel really short against my cousins… mostly because they are
all so tall. I really don’t like that feeling. I don’t really like the DJ
either because he always kept playing slow songs.
During the after party, I caught the bouquet. I felt so embarrassed
when everyone was asking me who I was going to dance with because when I caught
it nobody thought that I was old enough to get married, so I had to dance with
one of my cousins. I REALLY didn’t want to so I ran under a table and sat there
for what seemed like 3 hours but I don’t think that it was really that long. I
know that it was long enough to miss the dinner AND the cake!
Anyways, it’s late now so I got to go to bed and even though
today was a total waste of time, I know that it wasn’t a waste of my life,
because without it, I wouldn’t have an aunt right now.
