Entry #5

My increased adrenaline has jump started my metabolism. My appetite is virtually insatiable. It is said that a butterfly can store twelve times its body weight before metamorphosis. At the rate I’m going I may have wings by this time next week.

Entry #19

Journal entry nineteen. I’ve been monitoring my vitals for the past 48 hours since discovering my rash and the adverse side effects don’t appear to be ceasing; if anything, they’re getting worse. What’s happening to me? What I thought was a blessing, something to be granted to all, is nothing more than a curse — my curse. What have I done…
