I am here in a unfamiliar place; wondering if I shall return to London and if I would be happy with my new foster family.
You won’t believe how much I’ve been through! A rollercoaster  of emotions floated through my mind today!

It all started when I shut my door for the last time. I gazed at war-torn London which was bathed in greyish white fog that engulfed buildings. Today was the day I was leaving my life behind me. I was to  be evacuated. I wanted to break down and cry but I din't want to worry my mother. It was the first time I left her ( I was terrified inside).
The journey seemed like forever like time had slowed down while walking to the train which was covered in puffs of smoke. I quietly wondered to myself if I would ever see her again. Standing on the platform, I galanced at my mom one last time then reluctantly stepped on the never ending train.
My sister ( Steph ) sheded a single lone tear wanting me to do the same.©

Dear diary,
. I have been exited, nervous and worried but i had to hide it from my mother. Holding my little brothers hand my mum was dragging me all the way to the train station in a quick matter. She had cheeks as red as roses!i started to smell the thick chocking smoke. I saw that mother had a pale face with wide eyes; I could tell she was worried. Puzzled,I started to realize what was happening.
I didn't know for how long i would be away for. I fell like i have a giant tennis ball in my throat. ]]> 2017-11-06 05:34:29 UTC https://padlet.com/fbrassleay/ljdnjfh4bfsv/wish/203740573 https://padlet.com/fbrassleay/ljdnjfh4bfsv/wish/203740580 Dear Diary, you wouldn't believe the day I've just had;  it is one I would rather forget.

Dear Diary,  today was flooded with sorrow and fear (I'm choking back the tears whilst writing this)

Dear Diary, I feel more isolated than ever despite the fact that many other children are experiencing the same situation as me. As I closed my front door, my hands clammy and trembling, the reality of this emotional evacuation hit me; will I ever come back to the shattered and war torn city of London?

Monday 6th November 1939


Dear Diary,
What a day it’s been! Today has been the worst as I had to leave my mum for the first time (I was petrified as this had never happened before but I had to keep my emotions neutral) and my life behind. My sister felt the same, she clutched my hand so hard that I think one of my bones broke! I felt like bursting into sorrowful 
 tears but I could not upset mum, not on the last hour with her. A tear trickled down my sister’s face - Steph - and it urged me to do the same (don’t tell anyone). This day was such a surprise ; not a good surprise. I sit here now (in my dad’s armchair), wondering how my new foster family will be.©️

You wouldn’t believe what happened today ; It’s something I would not like to remember. It all started  when I woke up this morning and looked out the window at war- torn London. Closing my front door for the last time, I wondered if I’m ever going to see my home again. Mixed emotions ran through my head as we plodded in silence to the station. I nearly burst into tears, I tried my hardest to hold them back; I really didn’t want to worry mum evenmore  than she was.]]> 2017-11-06 05:34:43 UTC https://padlet.com/fbrassleay/ljdnjfh4bfsv/wish/203740593 https://padlet.com/fbrassleay/ljdnjfh4bfsv/wish/203740598 Dear dairy,                          Date
Today has been worst day ever and I find myself in unfamiliar place this evening. It sure is creepy. I was going to be evacuated. This morning I shut the door for the last time and I wonderd when I would see home again. As my mum dragged me(it hurt a bit) to the train station, I saw lots of other children being pulled by thier mothers so I knew I wasn't the only one.©™

Dear diary, 
This day has not been a joyful day;gloomy and grey as a usual day would start in war-torn London. This was the somber day that was coming. I was to be evacuated. 

Cold and misty, heavyhearted 
and flabbergasted, people walked stiffly and silently to the train station. As I held my mother's hand to keep me calm, the train was arriving with the common "CHOO CHOO!", it arrived and halted. I started to cry a little(don't tell anyone!).

People started boarding the train as soon as the officer was signaling the train had stopped. I waved goodbye one last time and inside I fell to pieces but outside I kept a straight face as to not worry my mum.

Today, was filled with misery, I was snatched away to the countryside. I have faced so many feelings; I was an emotional journey. 

Dear Diary,
When my door shut I realised it was real... too real. I was dragged to the place where  nightmares are made, the train station. My sister was crying but I held back my tears.
