GREG First of all, this is a journal,
not a diary.
Tomorrow is the first day of middle school.
But luckily, I'm not alone in this middle school thing.
I've got my best friend, Rowley.

RODRICK Here's what you need to know:
Watch where you sit on the first day of school.
Don't use the bathroom on the second floor.
And finally, don't get the cheese touch.
Because if you do,
you might as well be dead.
[Gulp]
SUSAN Thank you, Rodrick, for that
wonderful pep-talk.
GREG We're out of our league here.
ROWLEY Maybe my mom can homeschool me.
ROWLEY Hey, Greg! Wanna come over and... play?
[Echoing]
[Laughter]
GREG Yep, I'm pretty sure I'm gonna be in
therapy for this.

GREG We're in middle school now.
Don't you think it's time to start acting our age?
♫ I walk in like "how do you do" I just feel a little better ♫
♫ With an attitude ♫
GREG Ah! Fregley!
FREGLEY Wanna see my secret freckle?
GREG I'm like permanently scarred
from that night.
BULLY Look at these little nerds.
Out past their bed time.
GREG'S BABY BROTHER Busted.
GIRL 1 The cheese!
There's a piece missing!
GIRL 2 Disgusting!
[Screaming]
GREG Run!
[Laughing]
LUNCH LADY Zoo-Wee Mama!
GREG One day I'm gonna be rich and famous.
But for now, I'm stuck in middle school...
surrounded by morons.
♫ Bring your friends ♫
GREG If you just stick with me,
everything will be fine.
Ahh!
GUY Oh, sorry, I thought you were teenagers.
Are you alright?
You're alright.
