Girls' Life, June, 2001
It's a full moon at the pool!
I was at the pool with my friends, and I squeezed into a baby inner tube. I tried to get it off, but it was stuck. It finally came off--along with my suit bottom. "It's a full moon tonight!" my friends yelled.
My crush came up to me at the skateboard park and asked if I know how to board. I didn't want to look stupid, so I said yes. He gave me his helmet and board, and sent me down the vertical ramp. I flew off the board and sprained my ankle.
I met Matt, who was 16, at the beach. I'm 13, but I lied and said I was 15. My dad asked Matt if he was going into eighth grade, too. Once Matt realized I was 13, I never saw him again. Thanks, Dad!

I was on a hiking trip. We got lost and decided to spend the night in the woods and find our way back in the morning. My legs and arms were scratched from the bushes and trees. The next day, I decided to totally cover myself with clothes to avoid more scratches. Only one tiny spot of my neck was exposed. A bee stung me there, and a counselor rubbed mud all over my neck to lessen the pain. I had to walk around like that all day.
