My Diary

I start to remember stuff when I was really young. When I was born, I was born with water in my brain, that can’t be true right? “I was actually born with too much cerebral spinal fluid inside my skull.”(Alexie 1) So it makes me become a weirdo, because I am a weirdo, people will always pick on me, “Everybody on the rez calls me a retard about twice a day. They call me a retard when they are pantsing me or stuffing my head in the toilet or just smacking me upside the head.”(Alexie 4) Because people always pick me up so I am afraid of people, and will stay in my house for the most of the time. That makes me scared of other stuff, that could happened to me, but I still got a friend named Rowdy who cares about me and he will always protect me. He is the only friends/person who talk to me, except for my family.

“Rowdy is the toughest kid on the rez. He is long and lean and strong like a snake.”(Alexie 15) Because of him, now I don’t really get bully as much as before, now I can step out of my house and have some fun outside. Today I got bully by the Andruss brothers’ camp. The Andrusses are so mean to me. ““Hey, look,” one of them said. “It’s Hydro Head.”(Alexie 20), they language attack me, making fun of the shape of my head, suddenly I fell down. “One of the brothers picked me up, dusted me off, and then kneed me in the balls.”(Alexie 21), I tried to stand up, but I can’t, the Andruss brothers laughed and walked away. After Rowdy know what happened, he snuck in to their camp shaved off their eye brows, and cut of their braids. I feel safe and glad, glad to have a nice friend.

I don’t really like my life, I am really poor, “And sure, sometimes, my family misses a meal, and sleep is the only thing we have for dinner.”(Alexie 8) see and that’s poor I am. Today is the worst they in my life, I smashed Mr. P in the face, so I was suspended from school. The whole family was really disappointed at me, ““Can I sit down with you?” Mr. P asked.”(Alexie 33). He talks to me, and he ask me the question: “why did I hit him with that book?” and I was answer him with a excuse, saying: “ I was aiming for the plant, and trying to hit the plant.” and then he gives me a mysteriously smile, and then we have talk for a long time. He told me that the job of my school is to killed the Indian culture, and if I stayed at my school, the school will try to kill me, and he will try to kill me.

Today when my dad and mom came back to house, ““Who has the most hope?” I asked.”(Alexie 45) ““White people,” my parents said at the same time.”(Alexie 45), and I want to transfer school, I am going to transfer to the school with rich, white farm town that sits in the wheat field. I am glad that I finally walk out, but I need to face the new world now!
