January 1, 1933. Content Warning.
Happiness and optimism have eluded me for months but as I enter upon this new beginning, I find myself hopeful. I feel this is the year of love and joy for myself. I have been writing in your pages for many years now and you have been privileged to hold all of my secrets, except for one that I fear letting out of the constraints of my mind. I have been holding it inside for so long, afraid to even speak it out loud or in your pages... but alas, I feel it is the only way to escape this darkness that has been draped over me for so long. If I don't release this, I fear I may drown in this misery of my own creation. Therefore, I must confess this to you, dearest Diary... for you are the only one I trust with my deepest secrets... I am in love with another, not my husband, not another man...

The Diary of Katherina Minola
February 26th, 1593 My new husband, Petruchio, has once again found our dinner “unfit” for consumption. This maddening behavior has persisted for several days now. As I write, I feel quite faint, and I fear I may not stay awake long enough to finish this entry. He vexes me so; with his foul odor, rough manners, and appalling sensibilities, I feel most days that I share my marriage bed with a filthy, flea-riddled cur! We have yet to consummate our marriage, simply because I cannot bear the thought of him defiling me so. It makes my skin crawl even to think of it!
