I still can remember of the times that I am writing my diary. Every crush that I have is found in my diary. Every happy moments, sad experiences and love letters are found there. I wrote a diary when I am in High School. I stopped when I am on my third year college. I am so busy already that I have no time to write on my diary. But I still keep until now my diary. I just open it if I wanted to reminisce some memories from the past. It made me smile when I am in trouble. It made me laughs on my heartaches.
It really helps when you are alone. When you need someone to talk to, and you can't find somebody, just write what do you feel on your diary. It could relieved some burden that you are keeping inside you. It's better to transfer it to a piece of paper than to continue to keep it inside your heart.
If you have some time, write diary. It is awesome to create your own life story or love story..:)

When I was a kid, I use to keep a secret diary! Influenced by my older cousin, I always kept a diary in my drawer and wrote all my days and secrets in there like my crushes. I also would decorate my diary as well with pretty stickers and colorful paper. Now I left it somewhere, I don't have a diary anymore but Mylot is my new modern diary! When I log in, I would speak my mind and share it with the Mylot community! When I read other people's discussions, I share my own experiences so Mylot resembles a diary to me! 
Except I can share it with others and socialize whereas a book diary is only me and the book.

Nope! learned my lesson when I was younger that if you have siblings if you don't want anyone to know your secrets then just keep it to your self :) So I never write nor have a diary :)
But now to get my thoughts across or just write things that I want to vent out or just tell the world what I'm feeling I have my Blog to write about it :)

I used to write in a diary. I think I have 5 notebooks full of notes that serves as my diary. But that was when I was in high school and college. I also write about what I dreamed of the other night. Although most of the time I won't remember it. But it is good to read back those entries from my diary.

I've written diaries before. first when I was in first grade. Then I saw my sister reading through it and so I got so mad I tore the pages to pieces. I wrote another one in high school but I learned my mom was reading my diary so I tore it again. There are times that I feel like writing a diary but I always end up destroying them. But yeah, putting your feelings in writing relieves the stress.

I used to write in a diary but I haven't in a few years. I wrote in one off and on through high school and then off and on till I had kids and it just got too busy to do. It really helps to vent your feelings on paper. I think I still have mine somewhere too. I came across one set a few years ago and read through them remember things that had happened.

It is a good way To remember events also. Journaling ,or writing in your diary, is very good therapy also. Writing down what you feel down is very good for you and can help you feel much better. I used to do it every day and it was very cathartic and helpful in understanding my emotions.

Yes. I really do. It is one way of expressing what is inside me. It is really fun!

For the past years of my life, I've been trying or more like planning to write a diary. But in the end, I decided not to do it since i don't think i can manage to write everything that's happening in my life. And i might get lazy also in doing that. So now, i can just reminisce all those experiences I had back then without reading a diary. Maybe I already forgotten some memories, but there are still treasured memories that even without writing it, I can remember clearly.
But I envy you for having to a diary. Cause u can reminisce all you're experiences.. Well, keep it up. ^^
