In ancient times comets were always seen as harbingers of evil, and sinc...

May 18, 2010 Dear Diary, Today was such an exciting day. It even had drama, and I learned a lot about traditions in a faraway land. It all began when I wore my 'lucky dress.' It's my powder blue mini dress with cap sleeves and a low scoop-neck design. Anyway, I always take a shortcut through Patriot Park on my way to work at Staples. There's a park bench j...
