Absolutely Terrible

By: Zoe B
Washington, Grade: 6

Today, all we had to eat was one cracker, when is this going to end?! My family in the west is dropping like flies from some illness and my relatives down south are dieing from starvation...is life better in Canada? Because I am seriously thinking about going there,even if I die along the way. It's better than living in this pathetic rat hole...with no food, no hygiene, no extra clothes, and nothing to do besides searching for food... it's driving me nuts! Writing is the only thing I can do with out potentially driving me insane, and even now I only have seven more pages of my journal I made in art class three years ago, and I'm currently holding a piece of lead less than a centimeter long, to write!!!!!!!
