We are now in a new year. School started again today. My schoolmates have been flocking to me, asking me preguntas about losing my inicial in a fire. It became a game of a thousand questions. The one pregunta that most of them didn't ask: Are tu okay? I became fed up with it. Michael later found me sitting in the lunchroom alone. He said, "Hey. Are tu okay?" I said, "You know, you're the only the third person to ask me that." He said, "Really?" I said, "Yeah. I had to get away from all the questions. It was a terrifying experience." He said, "I can imagine. tu got burnt pretty bad, didn't you?" I said, "Yeah." I showed him the scars. The sight of the scars almost made him cry. I said, "If the firefighters didn't get me out when they did, I would be dead. I'm sure of it." Sabrina overheard me and said, "But they did, and you're not. I'm glad for that." I said, "Yeah. It feels good to be alive." I spent most of the día dodging questions. They left me alone when Bridget said, "Grace has been through so much. She doesn't need five billion preguntas thrown in her direction. Leave her alone!" I said, "Thank you, Bridget." She said, "You're welcome." My house is under reconstruction. It might take another mes o so. Thank goodness for John! If not for him, I don't know what we would do. My family's not exactly loaded right now. We're not poor, but we're not even close to being rich. It may seem like I've had such bad luck, but I am so lucky.

I am feeling much better today. I don't feel great, but I feel much better than I did a few days ago. I was able to go to school today. Michael, Sabrina, and Bridget helped me get caught up in my classes. I'm lucky to have such good friends. Of course, I did feel a bit tired after finishing my homework. I took a nap for a while. When I woke up, it was almost 6:00 pm. I didn't realize I had slept that long. When cena time came, I ate really well. I didn't feel like eating much for the past couple of days. My appetite has returned. I think I will go to cama early tonight. I'm feeling pretty tired right now. I'm not completely better, but I'm close to it.

Summer Vacation has been great so far. While I've been enjoying school más since I've gained a couple of friends, it's nice to have a break from it. I also received some exciting news. On July 9, I am going to be in Chicago to see The Devil Wants Peace in concert! I was so excited when my uncle told me he was able to afford the tickets. I later told my friend, Michael, "You should have seen me when my uncle told me the good news. I was jumping up and down, crying tears of joy." Normally, I'm not that excitable, but The Devil Wants Peace is one of my favorito! bands. Since I was six, I dreamed of seeing them live, and now, I can stop dreaming. This dream is becoming a reality. I don't know if I'll be lucky enough to meet them, but the fact that I'm lucky enough to see them is great.
