DIARY
A diary is a place where you record events, experiences and
other personal things that interest you. You can write about whatever you like,
free of outside judgment or criticism. It should be an extension of your mind:
safe and free. A diary can be whatever you decide and should be a place where you can be
honest.
Things to be consider while writing diary..
Ø Write the date in the corner or on
the first line. Mentioning place will be better.
Ø Begin each entry with topic in
mind.
Ø Open with "Dear Diary"
if you want to.
Ø Write in the first person by using
"I" statements.
Ø Be honest in your entries.
Ø Don't worry too much about grammar
and spelling.
Ø Use lots of details to preserve
moments in time.
Some Example of diary:
Example 1:
Okhaldhunga, Chyanam
2071/05/19
Dear Diary,
What a wonderful day that was!
It was my first day at new school
as English teacher. I was appointed there few days ago through the official
site of Nepal Government. As I entered in office, the headmaster welcomed me. I
submitted my appointment letter and introduced
myself to the other staffs so they
did. Then I went to assembly line in school ground. I found well mannered and
well dressed students. My first class was in grade 10 section "A" and
in grade 9 in section "B". I took 4 periods in that day. We took
snack at Krishna hotel which was outside school premises. I got little bit
closer with Ghanashyam Gelal, teacher of plant science than other. After 4:00pm
I returned my rented room. I called my mom. I talked with my wife and children.
It was the ever first nostalgic day of my life.

Example 2:
Dear Diary,
I usually write about my normal
boring day and it’s the same thing over and over. But today I am moving to a
new house. And I am so excited because it’ll be a new start. At my old school I
didn’t have many friends but maybe here people will appreciate my creativity.
But there’s a downside because if I don’t fit in here I won’t know what to do.
Have you ever had trouble fitting in? What am I thinking you’re just a diary?
You can’t talk! All I am saying is that I am glad to have a fresh beginning and
I am going to tell you about all of the adventures I go on in my new home. I
have to go but I’ll tell you more later.
Love
Isabel
Example 3:
1992
Dear Dairy
I kind of feel
like a dork writing about myself like this as if I were an American pop-rock
icon-demy God, or a self-confessed product of corporate-packaged rebellion, but
I’ve heard so many insanely exaggerated stories or reports from my friends and
I've read so many pathetic second rate, freudian evaluations from interviews
from my childhood up until the present state of my personality and how I’m a
notoriously f—ed up heroin addict, alcoholic, self destructive, yet overtly
sensitive, frail, fragile, soft spoken, narcoleptic, neurotic, little pissant
who at any minute is going to O.D. jump off a roof wig out blow my head off or
all 3 at once. Oh Pleez GAWD I can’t handle the success! The success! And I feel so incredibly guilty! For abandoning my true commrades who were
the ones who are devoted who were into us a few years ago. And in 10 years when
NIRVANA becomes as memorable as Kajagoogoo that same very small percent will
come to see us at reunion gigs sponsored by Depends diapers, bald fat still
trying to RAWK at amusement parks. Saturdays: puppet show, rollercoaster &
Nirvana . . .
Kurt Kobin
(Note: Kurt Donald Cobain was an American singer, songwriter
and musician, best known as the guitarist, primary songwriter and front man of
the rock band Niravana.)
(Kajagoogoo: Kajagoogoo were a new wave band, best known for
their 1983 hit singal "Too Shy".)
