Wow...I can't believe I wrote this only 2 years ago..What was going through my head? LOL. I'm trying to start diligently writing but hopefully the stories will be better than this. I Re-read all of y'alls comments and you are all too sweet!

[This isn't part of the story, but I recommend you read it to understand why it is..well, the way it is.]
Hello! I hope you'll all have a great new year! (At least better than the previous..) This short story I have here was supposed to publish on a website full of drawing prompts, but then I realized I made it too long and didn't feel like shortening it, so I thought I'd publish it here and hopefully make someone chuckle. :)
The prompt was 'Write about a character setting an unusual New Year's Resolution'. So uhm, yeah. Coming up with this in about an hour felt like some crazy fever dream, but I hope you enjoy it nonetheless! Thanks for reading in advance :)
Read at your own risk! (Nothing particularly inappropriate, it's just absurd. Okay, I type to much..enjoy!)

It’s 11:39pm on December 31 right now. I was watching the new years eve program on the news channel just a minute ago, I don’t think my family noticed but I was jumping and jittering at every word they said and slightly rocking in my chair sweating bullets, afraid at some point one of them would say they knew my secret. I feel guilty and disgusting. For the past month, I’ve been doing something vile, and now I’m regretting it every day. But I can’t stop. I get drawn back in every time, thirsty for more. I’ve kept it a secret, no one knows about it. Not my parents, not my older sister I normally tell everything, not even my boyfriend, ESPECIALLY not my boyfriend. Anyway, the reason I’m writing this is because I need to clear my guilty conscience. So on November 28th this year I was met with a decision I had to make, a decision I wouldn’t wish upon my worst enemy…
“Go to the store or you can drink the cats' milk,” THAT was what my mom said to me after I refused to eat her dinner that was infested with dead tortured animals and said that I would just eat cereal (vegan cereal with almond milk of course), but there was no milk! And we were snowed in, there was no way I was driving in that. But even if I was willing she probably wouldn’t have let me, she got me a car for my birthday but she’s terrified and won’t let me step foot inside. Anway,
So I stormed to my room angry and hungry. I must’ve been delirious, but then again, maybe not, maybe it was survival instincts. Anyway, I went to my room and after a while I considered… I wasn’t going to be hurting our new mama kitty in any way. And if she LET me get some milk like the wonderful mother she is, there’s nothing inhumane or wrong about that at all, right? I remember when I was thinking that my stomach made a loud growl because I hadn’t eaten all day due to a porky breakfast that was served. It settled my decision. So that same night while everyone was eating dinner paying no attention to me I went to Pearl just like any of her kittens, low to the ground and slurped some milk, it was really good! And since then it’s just been replacing meals for me. That was until a couple of days ago, she stopped giving milk.
But I was craving cat milk more and more, it was too good to let go.
So lately I’ve been going over to a friend's house to pet and plant sit since she and her family have gone on vacation. And luckily her cat recently had kittens before she left, so since Pearl’s all out of milk I’ve been able to spit some milk in bottles and take them home from Lucy’s my friend's cat for food later. I think I have a problem. I’m seriously addicted. I keep imagining once she’s done giving milk how I’ll look for some alley cats, and it’s tempting. But what would my family think if they found out? What if my sister walked in right now and snatched up this paper? I’m disgusting. But I can’t stop. I like it too much. Also, sorry to you, whoever’s reading this. I’m dumping this in the ocean come new year. Anyway, I probably should have said this sooner, but my new year's resolution is to stop this cat milk-drinking addiction, or at least reduce it to only 6 bottles a day. Pray for me. I really don’t want my boyfriend to break up with me, thinking I’m gay or something for this if he ever found out because I’m not. No offense if you are. Anyway, it’s 11:58pm right now and my sister has been banging on the door for the last 5 minutes so we can get ready to count down the ball drop. I told her I’m doing girl stuff but she probably knows I'm lying. I've gotta go now.
I really hope your new year will be better than mine is looking right now.

Hi,
I thought that this was a bit weird but in a funny way. It was written like a normal diary or journal entry but with an unusual yet kind of believable situation, which I thought was great.
Anyway, I thought this was great! Really good and funny read
Remember to keep writing!
