Quote of the day: "Live each day like it's your last so you will have lots to remember"

        This was a fun summer. I got to make some new friends, learn about some monster in a creepy house, and got shot at for entering someone’s backyard. Luckily no one was hurt but I think Jem had to go back for his pants. That must have been scary, to go get your pants out of a fence early in the morning. He had to be real quiet or Mr.Radley would blow his head off. I can’t wait to come back to Ma...

Quote of Day: "No matter how old you are, you are never too young to ask someone to marry you."

        This summer I asked Scout to marry me. Before I asked her to marry me, I marked her as my property, and told her that I loved her. She said yes. I kind of forgot about us because I was having so much fun with her brother Jem, so she beat me up a couple of times, but I still love her. I even sneak kisses with her when Jem’s not looking. We are going to get married as soon as we are old en...

Quote of the Day: "Make the best with what you've got"

        I love going to Maycomb every summer but I wish that I had a real home. I am just passed down from relative to relative and I am getting sick of it. Although, if it wasn’t for the fact that I don’t have a home, I would have never met Scout, my present fiancé and future wife. I do love Scout, but I wish I had a place to call home. Somewhere where I live the whole year, not just for the month. But that won’t happen until I g...

Quote of the day: "Things will get better"

        I’m not going to Maycomb this summer. I got a new father and I’m spending the summer with him. He is a lawyer like Scout’s father only he looks younger. My new daddy and I are going to build a boat together. That sounds like mighty fun. I am going to miss Scout, but I wrote to her that I will love her forever and that I will come marry her as soon as I got enough money. I hope Scout won’t spend her summer missing me while I have fun...

Quote of the Day : "Some people don't have it that good, most of the time you just have to be nice"

        Hey. I went to school today for my first day ever. It was really horrible. I've known how to read most all my life. I don't understand why the teacher didn't want me to be able to read. They said she was a brand new teacher and knew her information. Even though she might know this she didn't teach us a much we didn't know. See, she was trying to make a boy in our class take money an...

Quote of the Day “If you pay attention you may find interesting things in a bunch of normal item”

        Hey. Is there really something weird around... There's something weird going on. I'm sure of it. No, not so sure. But there's something interesting. Maybe its just a thing, something you find and don't you think it will happen or you don't think about it because its such a little thing and how important can it be? While we were coming home from school as one day, we found something ...

Quote of the Day Sometimes interesting things can happen, normally at unexpected times

        Hey. Was really cold today. Was colder today than its been for really long time. I was a little scared is when it started snowing. But I don’t think I’ll say much more about it because I think Jem might laugh at me. As there ain’t no school today I’m really happy about that. I been following Jem around kind of admiring the snow and watching what it does. An its kind of sloshy and we can ...

Quote of the Day "Thinking of the optimistically even in the harshest of times"

        Hey. This wasn’t my best day of school. I felt I had to beat up this kid for saying some things I think he shouldn’t of. This has been kind of how I been feeling . These wasn’t nice things to say. See what he said was that Atticus was a black lover. Also, it sounded really negative . My father, said not to be bothered by it, jus t ignore it. This might be something hard to do this cause I do no t...

Quote of the day: “Getting education can be unfair”

        Today was Scout’s first day of school. She was pretty excited just to go to some school. I don’t see why she should be. School’s actually a big bore for me, or most people! The surprising thing is I expected Scout to be all hyper after school. I pictured she wouldn’t stop blabbing about her class. Was I wrong! To my amazement, she hates school! I started to enjoy her hatred of school until it started to get annoying! ...

Quote of the day: “Summer don’t last forever”

        Here comes Summer! I just love that summer feeling, don’t you? You know what I’m sayin’ right? That, (usually,) warm breeze drifting across your skin. The light touch of the sunlight on your bare arms. The whistle of the wind blowing in your ears. Summer. You know what else that means, (other than school ending!)? My best buddy Dill’s back! Scout’s just as happy as I am too. Dill came back just this afternoon. It seemed ...
