Dear Diary,

Today was a bad day. Jimmy Thompson came up to me again at lunch with his friends. He started calling me names. Then when I tried to walk away, he grabbed me and pushed me to the ground. Then they all started laughing at me.

Luckily, a teacher came along before anything worse could happen. Jimmy pretended to help me up. He was pretending that I tripped. And then he said that he'd finish the job tomorrow. Now I'm scared to even go to school. Should I say I'm sick and take a day off? No, then Jimmy will know I'm scared of him. And that's just what he wants. I have to be brave. If I make him think that what he's doing doesn't bother me, maybe he'll stop. It's worth a try, anyway. I'll let you know how things go tomorrow. Wish me luck.

親愛的日記：

我今天很衰，吉米‧湯普森和他的朋友在午餐時間又找我麻煩。他不斷辱罵我，我試著遠離現場，他卻抓住我，將我推倒在地，然後開始嘲笑我。

幸好有老師經過， 事情才沒有越演越烈，吉米還假裝扶我起來，推說是我自己跌倒，背地裡跟我說他明天會繼續欺負我。現在我很怕上學，我應該請病假嗎？不行，吉米會知道我怕他，這樣他就稱心如意了，我必須勇敢起來，如果我讓他覺得他的所作所為不會影響到我，也許他就會收手。反正值得一試，我會讓你知道明天的發展，祝我好運吧……
