YES but, i don't write in it everyday only some occasions. Also student life is dead so no need for everyday repetition :colondollar:

Yeah I have done since I was 13. I don't really write in it that often anymore though, only when I need to vent.

what for? It seems like a good idea - do you write it online publicly or on a word document privately? or is it handwritten?

I never said I did. I'm thinking about writing one though. Private, in a nice journal, maybe Moleskine, handwritten with a good quality pen... :colone:

I used to keep one from about 8-15 and I love finding little passages, for instance how excited I was when I got my first mobile. I think when I'm 30 or so I'd love to know what 19 year old me was thinking.

again, that's a really good thought. I guess that is why people vlog these days

Yep. It's extremely sad to read. It's mainly me obsessing with boys from school and talking about what I did that day. :moon:

I hardly write in it anymore thoughl.

Yeah, remembering is an issue. Especially if you have to hide the diary, it isn't always in clear sight to remember to write. I'm at uni now though so I can keep my door locked from lurking eyes :rolleyes:

I've only ever written mine by hand, certainly would never put it online for anyone to see :noo:

I recently found mine from when I was 17-18 (I'm 29 now) and it was really cringey to read back on; I couldn't believe I came out with half of the stuff in it!

I wouldn't really say glad but it is nice to look back on things sometimes.

I used to. I had a few diaries that I threw out after a while because I was too scared that somebody might find them at the time. They were all full of self-loathing crap, hatred for everyone else and violent thoughts. I read a little bit of the one that I still have about a year ago. I was shocked at some of the things I'd written in there, it was like reading the words of a person almost completely alien to me. I sometimes forget how bad I used to feel back then [it wasn't even that long ago when I think about it.].
