Winner Take All — Lisa Banim

Dear Diary,

Today was the worst day of my life. I tried out for the White Oak softball team, and it was a total disaster. I couldn't do anything right. I never even made it to the first base. I missed a fly ball. And I struck out--six times in a row!

But that's not the worst thing. Ashley is the new gossip columnist for the school paper--and she wrote something about me. Something I didn't want anyone else to know!
