Day 1:
Dear Diary,
Today was my first day at school wearing that pink bow tie Mom insisted I wear. I felt a bit self-conscious at first, worrying what the other kids would think. But as soon as I walked in, I realized that nobody cared about my bow tie. They were too busy with their own first-day jitters.
I made a new friend during lunch break. His name is Alex, and he wears glasses just like me. We bonded over our love for video games and comic books. It was a relief to find someone I could connect with so quickly.
Even though I was nervous this morning, now I feel excited to come back tomorrow. Maybe this pink bow tie isn’t so bad after all.
Day 2:
Dear Diary,
Today, wearing the pink bow tie felt like a badge of honor. Alex and I strutted into school together, joking and laughing. I didn’t care what anyone thought because I knew I had a friend by my side.
During art class, I got a compliment from my teacher on my bow tie. She said it added a splash of color to the room. I felt proud and a little surprised that something as simple as a bow tie could get positive attention.
At recess, some kids asked me about my bow tie. I told them it was my lucky charm. They laughed, but in a good way. It felt good to make people smile.
As I take off my bow tie tonight, I realize it’s become more than just an accessory. It’s a symbol of confidence and friendship. And I can’t wait to wear it again tomorrow.
