[to find out how i survived seventh grade]
To my niece, Jordan Rae Applehans, who shared not only her eighth grade experiences with me, but also her wisdom. Keep doing
great things, J!
This is the new and improved, totally secret & private home page of ERIN PENELOPE SWIFT. Thanks 2 computer camp, I added way
cool stuff like video & podcasts. I’m using more “lingo” now that I can finally IM and I know more of that stuff. I rock.

THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT ME
I am totally over the Year of Humiliating Events (YOHE), aka seventh grade, when this personal, private, noone-will-see-but-me
blog was blasted over the school Intranet (that would be Molly Brown Middle School, aka MBMS) & every1 hated me 4 awhile.
Jillian Gail Hennessey—aka Jilly—was my BFF… then wasn’t cuz of YOHE… now is again—goes out w/ Bus Boy (Jon Lanner). I call
him Bus Boy cuz he 1st noticed her on the bus last year. Now he’s at Wash Hi w/ Chris, my big bro. Jilly & I were not on the
same track at MBMS last year but they switch it around every year so maybe this year we’ll be 2gether.
Mark, Rosie, Carla & Tyler r also buds… went 2 computer camp w/ all except Carla, who isn’t really into computers the way
we r… Carla was my locker partner last year & is hanging out w/ us more… I had crush on Tyler during camp… he liked Rosie…
Rosie liked some guy from another school… we’re done w/ all that now.
I used 2 have a major crush on Mark but no1 knew until the BN (Blog Nightmare)… then he liked Jilly… then didn’t… we actually
had a lame kiss & decided friends better—he started going out w/ Kara Simmons in July.
Serena Worthington has always been mean 2 me but last year we came 2 a truce. We’re not
friend
friends but she did come 2 my bday party & we can @ least talk & joke around a little now. I deleted the SW Hate-o-Rama/Dislike-o-Rama
page cuz of that & also cuz she doesn’t need 2 be taking up space on my website (except 4 here where I explain—2 WHO???—why
her page is history).
THINGS THAT BOTHER ME
My parents seem 2 be on my case more l8ly.
I can’t seem 2 talk 2 my mom like I used 2.
THINGS THAT JUST ARE
