Everyone is always posting about his diary desu, but do any of you fags actually keep a diary?
I've tried to, but I never have anything interesting to write

That's something little girls used to do.
I don't think most little girls' diaries are interesting
draw in it instead
I did when I was a kid, but then it got old.
I do keep a dream journal, however.
I used to keep one until I found out my parents were rifling through it and found out my teenage gender identity problems and cornered me about it one morning. Used to write a couple of pages every night, not anymore, burned my old ones because of the liability
I like to jot down my thoughts in my phone notes and also have a few google docs full of random undated entries
it doesnt have to be interesting
>writing your life experiences and reflexions is for little girls, Mr. Shekelsberg told me so!
I tried to keep a diary on my computer, one text file per day. But I don't always use my computer, and once I skipped 2 weeks, I just stopped.
Writing it in a notebook sounds great, but I'm paranoid someone might read it, even if there's nothing of note in it.
My mom read my diary and booked me a therapy appointment, I moved away shortly after that tho so something good came out of it.
I've posted my diary where I keep track of how many times I've masturbated this year a few times
Well, and what's the count?
Thankfully I happen to be a cute littler girl
Dubs of truth checked
That's because women have a higher verbal IQ on average.
I mainly write when I’m deeply distressed or pissed off. I intended to write every day but that’s not going happen.
I just write about something I did that day. Most days aren’t ingesting. Sometimes it’s as a simple as writing something I noticed while walking around downtown.
Write about your adventures as a mercenary cyborg samurai in the shadow realms
It helps me to remind things
Just write in a script/writing system that they don't know, make your own so no one will know without wasting their time to decode it.
I just write every weekend. There is always something interesting I can write down.
Based in every possible way
If the police have a valid search warrant they may be able to confiscate your journal and any evidence obtained from that illegal seizure, any 4th amendment violations of mere evidence will likely be ignored, and any admissions found in it will be used to secure evidence and admission of guilt or mental state. Never admit guilt guys. Don’t talk to cops.
god damn cat selfie posters are all like this

There have been periods in my life where I wrote in my diary on a daily basis. I didn't just write down what happened that day, but I literally pumped out any thought that ran through my head, even if it didn't strike me as particularly interesting at the moment. An exercise in externalizing thoughts if you will. It ended up being a mixture of personal worries, observations, random pseudo-philosophical ideas, sprawling reviews of any books/films/plays I consumed, and some gossip. I don't read it back very often, but when I do I absolutely love it. I'm so glad my past self took the time to write down all that nonsense and I feel pretty shit about the fact that I've since fallen off the boat. A lot of my entries start something like "I haven't written anything here for a long time." I should get back into it, turn it into a habit again.
It's a good fucking habit. It clears your minds. It forces you to give words to your half-baked ideas AND your worries. It gives structure and substance to your thoughts.
One tip though: write for no one but yourself. Write as if NO ONE is EVER going to read it, not even after you die. If that means it gets ugly, good. Don't write thinking: I might become a famed literary genius someday and my diaries will all be published in several hardcover volumes. That line of thought will fuck everything up because unconsciously you'll start writing for an audience. It took me a while to get over that. Diaries are supposed to be shit and embarrassing. If any good stuff comes out of it, use those parts in some essay or metafiction novel or whatever, but don't PLAN on publishing your diary, ever, because then it's not a diary but rather, I don't know, something else.
I used to write fairly regularly, but I stopped because inevitably every entry read like this:
>felt like killing myself again today
>why was I born?
>maybe I'm literally retarded but can't tell
>why did my best friend cut me out of his life out of the blue? dunno but it was probably my fault
over and over
>I've tried to, but I never have anything interesting to write
I could copy and paste the entirety of the last 3 years.
