    <content type="html">I went to that stupid party.&lt;br /&gt;I really shouldn't have. But then again, I knew what to expect. I guess...I guess I just let hope get in the way of reality.&lt;br /&gt;Honestly. My stranglehold on reality must not be that good anymore. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In short, it was boring and now I'm convinced my feelings will never be returned. I guess I'll just have to live with that.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;...But that doesn't stop it from hurting. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Meh. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-Merle</content>

    <content type="html">Eh, things are better now. It's been at least a month since my fight with Cookie, and I've completely healed. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Though now I somewhat wish I hadn't healed completely, because Shirogane-san and Akasaka are throwing a random party. Whoo. Which means I'm going to have to go AND dress up...in a dress. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;...Eh. Isn't wearing my Mew Mew outfit and my cafe uniform enough girlyness for me?&lt;br /&gt;I don't have much of a choice though, so I guess I'll just have to suck it up and deal with it...</content>

I guess I should've expected it, really, Cookie WAS rather strong...&lt;br /&gt;Speaking of Cookie, I wonder if he's still down from that fight?&lt;br /&gt;Haven't seen him around, especially when the others attacked a few days ago. I had to stay out of that battle, of course...&lt;br /&gt;Well, whatever. I don't really care, like I've said before. ...At least, I think I don't.&lt;br /&gt;...No, I don't.&lt;br /&gt;I must still be injuried, why the hell would I care about an alien?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-Merle</content>

    <content type="html">I'm back at the cafe. Whoope-freaking-doo.&lt;br /&gt;My side is still a little sore, but I haven't told the others that.&lt;br /&gt;Is it any of their business? Not really.&lt;br /&gt;I'll probably be healed in a few days anyway. Nothing big to worry about.&lt;br /&gt;Other than that, it's been relatively quiet, for once. I take it Cookie is still down, but that really shouldn't stop the other aliens from attacking. Oh well. Not like I care; I'm quite happy with the temporary peace.&lt;br /&gt;But...it wouldn't hurt to have something to do to take my mind off things. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oh well.

    <content type="html">I fought the alien again today. Guess he decided it would be okay to attack me while I was still down.&lt;br /&gt;Didn't work. I managed to beat him up fairly well and he ran off.&lt;br /&gt;Coward.&lt;br /&gt;Still, he seemed a bit distracted by something.&lt;br /&gt;Oh well. Not like I care.&lt;br /&gt;He tried to kiss me again today as well.&lt;br /&gt;Didn't succeed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Still, wasn't much fun. He managed to find my weak spot (My tail, of course. Stupid thing.) and wank on it. My back is still sore...&lt;br /&gt;He also hit me in the same spot my rib got broken. It hurt, needless to say.&lt;br /&gt;Still, I beat him.&lt;br /&gt;Nothing to worry about.</content>

Like I said, who would want to go out with me?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;25. Are you a good cook? Of course, seeing as how I live by myself and have to support myself.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;26.

    <content type="html">So, a journal. Just for me. How SPECIAL. &lt;br /&gt;Eh, to start off, I'm fourteen years old. Silver hair that's layered and goes down to my waist, silver eyes...etc. I'm merged with the DNA of a white tiger, which allows me to transform into Mew Merle. What fun. I fight the aliens on a daily basis, and I work as a waitress at Cafe Mew Mew when I'm not fighting.&lt;br /&gt;I tell you, that place grows on you after a while...I'm actually starting to think it's &lt;i&gt;cute&lt;/i&gt;. &lt;br /&gt;I was, in essence, the "first" Mew Mew. Ryou Shirogane-san and Keiichiro Akasaka used me as their first experiment to make sure it was near completion. Due to me becoming a Mew Mew before everyone else, I had a few problems in the beginning. They were worked out, though, so no harm done.&lt;br /&gt;I ended up staying with them every now and then. If I was a Mew Mew now, then I'd have to fight sooner or later, they told me. I still managed to wander off by myself and, because of the DNA, managed to whind up in the park and fall asleep in a tree.&lt;br /&gt;You'd never really think trees would be that comfortable until you've been merged with cat DNA.&lt;br /&gt;But whatever. Over time, I began to gain feelings for Shirogane-san. I never expressed them though. Due to a...ah, shall we say "interesting", past, I had trouble expressing my emotions. I found that keeping to myself and acting like I disliked and distrusted others was a good way to protect myself from being hurt.&lt;br /&gt;But, once our Mew leader Ichigo Momomiya showed up, well, let's just say I got hurt in a different way. I realized my feelings for Shirogane-san wouldn't be returned, and, well...you get the picture.&lt;br /&gt;But a part of me still has hope. Besides, the aliens are still here...there's plenty of time for him to gain at least SOME feelings for me.&lt;br /&gt;At least, I hope.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, that's all for today. I'm rather tired, seeing as how it's almost 12:30. Ja.&lt;br /&gt;-Merle</content>
