Dear Diary:
      Hello, let me introduce myself. My name is Ashley Nicole Ketchum. I live in Pallet Town on 1947 Maple Street. I live with my Mom, dad and brothers. I'm thirteen years old. My birthday is on July 19, 1988. I have black hair that is about two inches past my shoulders. I normally keep it down with nothing done to it. I sometimes like to put my hair in a high ponytail. I sometimes put my hair in a bun, but only for a special occasion. I have my mom's beautiful blue eyes. Some people say I have a little bit of brown deep in my eyes. I don't see it though. I'm about 5 feet, 2 inches. It's been a few months since I last checked. I'm a Pokémon Trainer too. I have a Raichu, Umbreon, Clefable, Dragonite, Squirtle and Cubone. I give my Pokémon nicknames, here they are...

Raichu = Zap
Umbreon = Mystic
Clefable = Emerald
Dragonite = Draco
Squirtle = Shelly
Cubone = Rockia

I love my Pokémon very much. Zap always stays out of a PokéBall and has always been by my side. Zap is my best Pokémon friend. I had her since I was nine. She was a Pichu back then. My parents gave her to me as a present. Ever since then we've been unstoppable. I didn't get to talk about my family did I? Well, where should I start....

I guess I'll start with the woman that gave birth to me, my mother. Her name is Misty Ketchum, but I always call her Mom. My Mom is like most mothers, but she's easy to talk to. When I talk to my dad about what's going on with me he thinks I'm constipated. Don't get me wrong, I love my dad very much. My mom's just is easier to talk to. Like other mothers, she wants the best for her daughter. I kinda look like my Mom except I have black hair instead of red haired. I have my dad's attitude though. My Mom is pretty for a woman of her age. She's thirty-five now. She was twenty-two when she got pregnant to me. My parents used to be very wild and they had sex a lot. I guess I kinda ruined it for them. When I was three I could hear them making my little brother, Malcolm. It was so disgusting. Malcolm's first words were "Oh my......." He said this after he walked in the room while my parents were making my other brother.

Next is my dad, the man that helped my Mom raise us kids. His name is Ash Ketchum. My dad isn't like other dads. He's kinda dumb and always doing stuff without thinking or asking my Mom first so he gets in trouble. Sometimes I feel like my dad is really my third brother instead of my dad. He always went easy on us when we did something wrong. I was a good child, so I never got into trouble, but my brothers are another story completely. What scares me is that people say I'm just like my dad as a kid. I find this scary because I'm smart and my dad...well....isn't. I love him a lot though. He's fun to be with and he's nice to us. My Mom can yell and be mean when she's mad. My dad's a sucker when it comes for Malcolm to convince him of stuff like the time he tied Pikachu to a tree. He convinced my dad he didn't do it. Malcolm can be such a jerk at times. My dad fell in love with my Mom when they were both twenty. My dad didn't have the guts to ask her to marry him until they turned twenty-one. It took a year before they ended up having their first born child.

Finally, there's my brothers. The oldest of the two is Malcolm Robert Ketchum. Malcolm is ten years old. Malcolm looks just like my dad as a ten year old. It's scary 0_0. Malcolm is just like my dad now. Malcolm doesn't have a bit of my Mom in him at all. At least I've never seen it. My brother is the biggest troublemaker I know. He loves getting to mischief, he can't resist it. Kinda like when my Mom wears her pink silky night gown. My dad can't resist when she's wearing that nightgown. Thanks to that nightgown, Luke, my other brother and I were born. I asked my parents for a little sister not a brother. They actually wanted another baby and they ended up making Malcolm. I wasn't happy about it. I was demanding they take him back and get me a sister. Sadly, I never got my little sister. I still wish I had one, but I'm getting over it. I actually grew to like Malcolm and Luke. They're okay. My other brother is named Lucas William Ketchum. Most people call him Luke, but my parents call him Lucas all the time. When he gets in big trouble with other people they call him Lucas. That's when he knows he's in trouble. We can tell we're in trouble by the way our parents yell out our names. That's the first hint we're in trouble. Luke's pretty quiet. He always hangs without Malcolm. Malcolm and Luke are best friends and brothers. They do anything for each other. Luke has red hair and blue eyes, like Mom. Luke has short, straight red hair. He lets it hang over his forehead and ears. If I had to choose which brother I love the most, Luke would win. He's like our Mom a lot, but he has my dad's brains. Yes, Luke is dumb. Luke is always one step behind everyone.

That's my family, I love them all, no matter how strange they are. I have some great friends too. Let me talk about them...

First there's Denise Ann Sketchit. Heather is Professor Tracey's stepdaughter. Tracey was married to a beautiful woman named Fibi. Fibi had long bleach blonde hair and sparkling blue eyes. Unforcently, Fibi died only three months after she had their son, Carl Thomas Sketchit. Carl barely remembers his real mother. When he was four, my dad had to go to one of the Orange Islands. He brought with him his wife, me, but I was only two at the time, Brock and his wife and Tracey. On the Orange Island, Tracey met a Jewish woman named Kristen Sarah Miller. Kristen had a one year old baby named Denise Ann Miller. Tracey and Kristen ended up falling in love and got married. Kristen was now known as Kristen Sarah Sketchit. She changed her daughter's name to Denise Ann Sketchit. Denise calls Tracy her real father, not her stepdad. Denise has short, ear length, regular blue hair. She has bright green eyes as well. Denise looks like her mother, except Kristen has long hair. Carl has short, spiky blonde hair and black eyes. Denise is now twelve and Carl is fiveteen. Denise is kinda quiet and shy. She is always safety conscious. She's scared of a lot of things and takes things too seriously. She also has bad allergies.

Next is Heather Helen Harrison, one of the most hyperactive girls I know. Heather is Brock's only daughter. Brock used to be married to a woman named Victoria, but she divorced him when Heather was six. Heather sees her mother every other week, but she lives with her dad. Heather has long, dark brown eyes, dark skin and hazel eyes like her mother. Heather has no brothers or sisters, which doesn't seem to bother her. It's hard enough to take care of her, no one could handle more of her. Heather is a hyper girl with the wildness of three girls.

Then there's Rachel Miranda Rocket. Rachel is a rich, pretty girl. She has shoulder length purple hair. She has blue-green eyes and light skin. She is all about fashion and make-up. Rachel is Jessie and James's daughter. Rachel is used to being a rich, pretty, clean and popular. I thought Rachel was a stuck-up when I first met her as a ten year old. Turned out, she's really nice. She is clean, pretty, popular and rich. She has a nice personality and a good mind. I just wish she'd let that out more often. Rachel doesn't have any little brothers or sisters.

Finally, there's my best bud, Joseph Michael Oak. Joey is my best bud, like I said before. Joey is nice, funny, smart and fun to hang out with. I've known Joey since I was five, he's like my brother. Well, not exactly my brother. Joey has a big brother and a little sister. His big brother's name is Zac. He's seventeen. His little sister's name is Leslie. She's only seven. She's really cute. They all have the same brown hair and brown eyes. Their father is Gary Oak, my father's rival. They still hate each other, but they don't force their children who they can't hang out with.

So, that's pretty much my life. Tomorrow, I'll be going to Pokémon Junior High. It's a school where preteens learn all about Pokémon in a school environment. My friends will all be there. I gotta go to bed now, see you later.
                                                                                                                                                                  Sincerely,
                                                                                                                                                                  Ashley Ketchum

Ashley closed the small lime green book and dropped down the blue pen she was writing with. Closing the diary, she carefully laid it on the white dresser that sat right beside her bed. She had a twinsized bed with white pillows, light blue covers over the bed. Ashley was under the covers, laying on her stomach. Her feet were up in the air, making a huge hump in the bed. She laid her feet down and turned around on her back. She started at the tiny cracks in the ceiling above her bed. She turned her head to see the black alarm clock. In bright red letters the numbers 9:30PM glowed brightly. Ashley was wearing black pajamas with white stars and moons all over them. She rested her head down on the pillows, then stared at the ceiling until she fell asleep, knowing tomorrow her school life will begin...
