Daisy's Diary-Jan. 27

January 27, 2009
Dear Diary,

I am so sad and excited at the same time. Today I met Jay Gatsby again, after five years. He is rich now and has an amazing house which holds beautiful shirts. The most beautiful shirts I have ever seen. I know what I want. I want Gatsby, but I have Tom now and he is a good husband. He does so much for me and he gives me nearly everything I want and I shouldn't just give it all away. But then again I should have waited for Gatsby to come back from the war. I loved him and he loved me. I think that I still love him. I also think that I should probably think about this a little more and get back to you.

Love Daisy...Fay
