A had a (bad?) habit as a kid of taking words I'd heard adults say but didn't know the meaning of and then using them, wrongly. Especially words that sounded important, I'd co-opt for my own dramatic purposes. This blog gets its name from a classic example - I'd heard the word SIN in church a lot and thus proclaimed that "Sin is Great."
In this entry from 3rd grade, we see I'd recently been exposed to the word "framed," which I sensed was something bad but otherwise didn't understand. You can actually see I was self conscious about not knowing the meaning since I first wrote down "Dear Diary, I was framed today at school." But then I vigorously erased that and wrote instead "I think I was framed today at school."
