Dear Diary,
Two days ago I offered my daughter’s pieces of land to control over depending on how much they love me. I gave two of my daughter’s a quarter of the land. This is because they said they love me very much and because my last daughter Cordelia which is my favourite on said nothing, I banished her to another country. I was very furious when I found out my two daughters only wanted land , wealth and control. I found out when my daughters started to disrespect me and I realised they didn’t love me that week. She was jealous and greedy because she wanted to inherit my 100 knights and squires If I got murdered or died naturally from old age. I finally thought about my other daughter Cordelia. The next day I leaped out of bed and rode my horse in the dark, grey clouds in the cold wet rain.I convinced her to come back and she accepted but she also replied she wanted to stay there for a while. I got back to ancient Britian and an anonymous person broke out into a sword fight. As the stranger won he revealed him self with the name Edmund. Cordelia passed away and I was devastated. But my two other daughters were in big trouble. They deserved it for lying to me but I didn’t feel like being alive without Cordelia my precious daughter.

King Lear: “After I came back for Cordelia and thought about how she was feeling, I do think I am mostly thoughtful.
Me: “Ok King Lear this is the last question.Do you think These questions are offensive in any way?”

Me: “That is all of the questions bye King Lear I hope you have and excellent day!”

In space I went to the Dead Cayon and landed on planet bones but it was stressful because of the vultures that is trying to attack me and my friends.The process of going to planet bones was very hard and I could’ve died. With our space ship we have managed to kill all of the vultures to get to planet bones.
After we have done that there was a tornado coming and I said that ”don’t run away, the tornado might push us to planet bones.
After when I have rest I will go and visit planet bones, I hope that I am not going to die.

Dear diary,
It has been years since mum left all I have left of her it’s her Vogue magazines and a single solitary picture that miraculously floated up from the flames dad started. I have found a new passion something I’m going to have to keep secret from the rest of my family. Dad doesn’t really approve of anything feminine he wants me to be masculine and fit a certain expectation. He doesn’t know about my picture of Mum. He doesn’t even know about my interest in fashion. If he did he’d be very ashamed of me. It’s really hard keeping a secret like this to myself, but I found a new friend her name is Lisa and she really understands me , me and her have got this scam that we’re gonna pull off and involves a boy in a dress. It’s going to be a big risk but I think we can pull it off. I just hope no one notices, because if they do I’m a deadman.
Gold
How did you cope when your mum left ?
It was really tough , especially since dad‘s house rules were no hugging no crying and no talking about mum . Sometimes I used to cry in my bedroom and sometimes my older brother heard me and he would say stop crying crying , this for girls. This isn’t good for my mental health because anyone can feel emotions boys and girls.
What message would you like to spread to the world ?
That you shouldn’t be expected to fit into a certain stereotype as anyone has the capabilities of doing anything .
How did you meet Lisa ?
I met Lisa , whilst in detention for kicking a football through a window in school.
How did you feel when all the boys wore dresses at the football match ?
I felt confident as a feeling of unity and empowered, as to have all my team mates standing with me is a privilege .

Dear diary, today
started off with me doing practice laps. I was later joined by some friends who wanted to compete with me. I was so confident that they would lose. As the race started I could not move. My car wouldn’t start. I didn’t understand, but my car had broken down due to all the practising I had been doing. I was happy for my friends as they finally had beaten me. So it was my turn to treat them to ice cream as I had lost. It was a good day. -
