Dear Diary,
Sometimes, I like having a little sister. Like when Millie is at school or asleep. Then she’s just great. Other times, however, I just really wish I was an only child.
Like today.
I’ve been SUPER excited about the Kinzville Sings contest coming up – I mean, really – it’s going to be the biggest thing that’s ever happened to Kinzville. I’m a pretty good singer, and an OK dancer. I thought that with a little practice, though, I could take it to the next level. So that’s what I tried (key word is ‘tried’) to do.
Until Millie came along, that is.
I was singing a song I had made up, and practicing dance moves that I had seen in a music video, when Millie marched into my room and told me to knock it off.
I told her it was important to practice. She said that maybe I should practice outside because my singing was giving her a headache and my dancing sounded like a herd of buffalo.
I told her she should mind her own business.
One thing lead to another and we ended up yelling at each other.
My mom was trying to get some work done at home, so she wasn’t too pleased. But guess what? She actually AGREED with Millie. She said, “Molly, I understand that you need to practice. But other pigs live in this house, and you’re not exactly quiet. Outside sounds like a perfect place to practice.”
So I ended up in the backyard.
After singing and dancing on the deck for about an hour, I got the sense that I was being watched.
And I was. By Millie and her little friends, standing at the back door. They were all laughing hysterically.
Millie had called them over to see ‘the show.’
Anyway, long story short, I stomped out to the tree house and practiced there. Which isn’t easy, because the roof is kind of low and there’s not a lot of dancing room.
If I don’t end up winning the contest, you’ll know why.
Love,
Molly
I understand, Molly, but you have to realize that Millie is young, and that she can watch you if she wants. I’m very sorry that you feel this way, but what’s wrong with your sister and her friends watching you? If you can’t overcome your ‘stage fright’ with them, you’d better watch out for the judges on Kinzville Sings…..Good luck, Molly! Know that you’ll do great!
I definitely get the sense that Molly is on a rock star arc. Her destiny is calling.
Tell Millie to knock it off. You’re practicing for something really big, and your family wasn’t supportive. I’ve been there. ~()PL4Ever()~ (yay, my signature is in the right place)
I’ll make you some cupcakes to make you feel better. Hopefully Millie won’t bother you anymore.
Millie’s just jealous.
I know how that feels! I am the oldest in my family. i have a little brother. We are three years apart. >>j3gnight2011<<
Millie shouldn’t have been laughing! I’m sure your not that bad Molly! I know you will do great when you go to the kinzville sings competion!!! Knowing you will do great, *** web luv ***
Millie need’s to be taught a lesson!!!
i feel the same way i am the youngest and my older sister is so annoying!!!!!!!!!!! *** uno8schroo ***
That’s aweful. I would have told my mom if my sister brought her friends over to laugh at me. Of course, if she’d already sided with my sister, I’d just keep it to myself till I saw one of my friends and could talk to them. But at my house, I’m the youngest. Older siblings can be just as annoying about half the time. The other half they’re ok. ~~O~~SapphireSea~*~*~
