I'm thinking of ending this book at short story 40 (so pretty soon) but maybe I'll go to 50. I'll let you all know.
                          
Let me know what you think! :)

Hey diary,
                          
Today was the last day of school for the year and I'm super pumped for grade 11. I only have on exam to do in a week because my other two were last semester. 
                          
Anyways, after school I was walking home when I saw a boy around my age walking towards me. I'd never seen him before so I was nervous- excited, but nervous. 
                          
I wanted to say something, maybe even accidentally bump into him just to start a conversation. From the distance that I could see him from, he seemed cute.
                          
As we got closer to each other, I realized we were walking on the same side of the sidewalk. Suddenly I didn't know which way to go to stay out of his way. My mind raced with "Move or stay?" 
                          
He was just ahead of me now and I was still debating which way to go. I kept my eyes on the ground for a second before looking up. That's when I noticed him smiling.
                          
He was smiling at me.
                          
He had one dimple on the right side of his smile. His eyes were a dark brown colour. With the sun on his face I could see a few freckles splattered across his nose and cheeks.
                          
When the time came to move or stay, I froze. He had looked away once I had smiled back. At the last second, we both moved over.
                          
Laughing, I looked up to see him doing the same. His dimple returned with his grin.
                          
"Sorry." He smiled, "I didn't know which way to go." 
                          
"Neither did I." I admitted, as I stared at my dirty, blue vans.
                          
"I'll go this way." He pointed to his left, my right.
                          
"And I'll go this way." I pointed to my left, his right.
                          
"Right." The boy nodded before laughing again. "So much planning." I heard him mumble before stepping around me.
                          
My mood had skyrocketed during those few seconds of standing with him.
                          
I spent the rest of my walk home thinking of him and it wasn't until I got home that I realized I don't know who he is.
                          
I've gotta see him again.
                          
Love,
                          
Me

Diary,
                          
Nothing happened today. I slept in. Baked cookies. Watched a good movie.
                          
And thought about how to find out his name.
                          
Love,
                          
Me

Dear diary,
                          
I got called into work today. It was pretty cool. I got to scoop ice-cream all day. I loved it.
