Rain

It has been raining or cloudy all week long, and now! Srujana said that whenever she complained to her friend, she said "Welcome to Oregon!" She only complains when it's raining. And no snow whatsoever except that light layer two days before New Year's Eve. Ugh!
And I am getting a new dress! It will be a school outfit. An orange dress with red embroidery.
And the new girl arrived today! Gwen Megan Thompson came from American Girl, and the first thing she did was hug Sonali, before Sonali introduced all of us. She will be staying in a room with Sonali and me. It's fairly crowded, but not so bad. Gwen's pretty nice. Now, Srujana's friend has three American Girls, and one too many according to her mom, so she offered to give one to Srujana. Kaya, Elizabeth, or Josefina. Hmmmm. Srujana wanted her friend to sell the doll, but her mom did not want her to. Srujana has lots of time to decide anyways.
See you!
