Dear dairy,

I was caught for a theft. All I stole was a pitiful piece of pine from a pine whittler’s hut. Now I am one of the first people to be shipped of to the illusive place called Australia, I had never imagined that this would happen. As we were leaving my relatives floated a big brown balloon that said goodbye. Oh I will miss them so much. On the boat I made friends with a boy called Joseph who had a terrible fear of spiders. One evening a mean boy called Charlie placed a fake spider on Joseph’s hammock, frightening Joseph. I kicked Charlie so hard he ran off crying.
