Day 1

A 7th grader named Greg Heffley is starting The school year. He starts the book by saying that he won't be writing his feelings in the diary, preferring to call it a journal instead. Greg says that Rodrick Heffley,his brother has to scrub toilets if he wrote in that diary, so Greg try's to be very careful with his diary. Greg then says that the only reason he agreed to get a journal was so when he becomes rich and famous, he'll give the diary to the reporters rather than answering questions about his childhood. He then reveals that it is his first day of middle school.and tells the reader that they better be careful when choosing a seat, because the teacher may say that your seats are permanent. Stuck with Chris Hosey in front of him and Lionel James behind him, Greg says that Otha Harris came in late and almost sat to his right, but Greg stopped it from happening. Greg says that next time he's just going to sit down in the middle of a bunch of "hot girls", but ponders his decision, saying girls are complicated. In homeroom, he got stuck with a teacher that had Rodrick a few years back.

Day 2

Greg is woken up by Rodrick saying its his first day of Middle School and he's late. Greg goes downstairs and gets his clothes on, but Frank catches Greg eating Cheerios at 3 AM. Greg tells him Rodrick tricked him. But Rodrick is asleep in his room and Greg thinks Frank thought he was a idiot and liar.

Day 3

Greg describes about that Alex Aruda and Larry Ziegel that are smart Kids. He can only think of one kid who broke the last name rule and that's Peter Uteger. Greg's younger brother, Manny writes on Greg's door with a marker and his parents defend him. Rodrick stopped letting Greg sell chocolate bars for a School Fundraiser. Greg also describes about Manny calling him "Bubby" and keeping that nickname for 5 years.

Day 4

Greg finds a piece of cheese on the ground at the basketball court and thinks it dropped out of someone's sandwich.

Trivia
