Kellie's Diary: Decay of Innocence Read Online Free PDF Page A

I have enough food to last a while.  I have a bunch of bags of chips, some of those protein bars, some bottles of water, those chewy vitamin C's in case I get sick, a spoon and some cans of soup.  I want to bring a lot more, but I don't have a car, and I can't drive.  I have to ride my bike with all this stuff.  Besides, it's not like theres much food here anyway.
                  You know what?  I need to take down all the notes I have in the house, and write some brand new ones.  You know, just in case.  These are the last notes I'm going to leave for them, since I probably won't be coming back here.  I still don't want them to think I got eaten up by zombies, so if I make sure that they see I went to Oregon, and how I'm going there, they can come find me.
                  It's really weird that I'm leaving.  I've been scared a lot before, but this is a different kind of scared.  Not like hiding from the zombies, but it's... I don't know.
                  Yeah, that's it.  I'm scared because I don't know.
                  I dont know how long its going to take me, I dont know if my family will be there, I dont know if I'm going to find any food.  But I think I'd rather be hungry forever than sit around here and wait for the zombies to find me.  There's way too many for me to try and stay here.  It's not safe anymore.
                  At least I'll have you and Mr. Floppy with me.
                  I'm going to go write those notes now.  Then i'm going to make sure I have everything I need.  I'll sleep one more night here, but then in the morning, I'm leaving.
                  I'll talk to you later, Barbie.

                  Well, I just wanted to talk a little before I left.  I left notes all over the place in the house.  There's one on my bedroom door, one on my parent's bedroom door, another on my sisters door, in the hall next to the kitchen, on the TV screen, even the bathroom doors.
                  It sounds like a lot, but I really want to make sure that if they get back, there's no way they can't figure out where I went.  It's been a long time since I've been away from home for a while.  Besides Grandpa's house when I was visiting last year, this will be the longest I’ll be away from home.
                  I'm a little scared.  Okay, I'm a lot scared.  I've been working really hard on figuring out how to get to Grandpa's.  It's really happening now.  I didn't realize how hard it was going to be to leave.  I never thought about it much until now.  I may never come back home.
                  It's just not safe here.  I know I talked about it a lot already, and you know everything that's happened since the beginning, but I kind of feel like I have to keep telling myself that.  A lot of this still doesn't feel real, like it's one of those dreams that feels like it lasts forever.  Those are usually the scariest.
                  I really have to just go now.  I have you and Mr. Floppy with me, I'll be okay.
                  All right, here it goes.

                  Hey Barbie.  I finally found a good spot to sit down for a while.  I'm almost outside the big city now.  It took a while to get here because there were a lot of the zombies in the downtown part of the city.
                  I found this park by the river and I climbed up to the top of the playhouse thing.  I should be safe for a while as long as I stay quiet.  I saw a couple of them around but they're really far away, so I'm not too worried right now.
                  It's really weird around here.  There's no kids anywhere, but I see a couple of backpacks around and some shoes.  I guess nobody's been here for a long time.  The grass is really tall, kind of like those
