Write about the person you’ve been thinking about lately. Write about what this person said to you, and about what someone else told you about him/her. Write about what you think about this person. Write about what is making you happy. Write about what is making you sad. Write a story. The diary doesn’t even have to be about you! Make up a character and write the first page of his or her diary.
If you can’t think of anything to write, then write about how weird it is to be writing about yourself. Write about why you can’t think of anything. Write about why you want to keep a diary. [5] X Research source Try setting a time limit for yourself. Set an alarm for ten minutes, and then start writing. This might get you going!
Say some variation of, “I’ll be back with more to say tomorrow. For now, I’m signing off!”
Write: “This diary is the property of Aidan Applebee. Keep reading at your own risk!” Write: “Personal diary! Keep out!!” Write: “Personal property! Please don’t read!”
Include where you are going to school and/or where you work. Write where you live: the city, the state, and maybe even the address.
This is just for fun. When you look back, you’ll be able to see how your likes and dislikes have changed!
