Keep a journal regularly

I’m doing very, very well with this now. I write nearly every day. It really helps me figure myself out.

Several weeks ago, Kim was able to visit me, and presented me with a journal telling the story of how we met and fell in love.
I will be visiting her next Friday and have slowly but surely been adding entries to the journal, so that she can read about things from my side of the page.

I think that this was the greatest idea and the best gift I’ve ever received. I hope that my words will convey my feelings in such a way that she will understand that my love for her is forever!

I’ve been writing nearly every day; at least once a week, I believe. Now that I have a laptop it should be easier, but of course it isn’t. It’s still annoying to sit down and get it all out. It’s worth it, though.

As part of my job as a school librarian, I’ve begun writing a newletter for the faculty. I want to keep a journal so I can remember ideas and suggestions for articles.

I’ve kept a journal off and on, starting when I got a diary for my seventh birthday. I threw it out last year, though (huge mistake) and I’ve had a few other journals over the years. Now I try to write major events (mainly having to do with my almost-non-existent love life) in my journal, and I’ve been averaging an entry a week. It just takes so long to write it out and my wrist ends up aching, and if I try to type it I get distracted.

as opposed to having it on the net :)

I have managed to keep my livejournal active all summer. I am not good at blogging every single day but I do it enough to where I can look back and see how I’ve progressed. It’s neat to capture a piece of your thoughts and then be able to look back upon them.

I’ve been keeping a journal since 1996 when I was 12. I had a crush on my Social Studies teacher and I wanted to keep track of my encounters with him. I thought I’d stop writing in journals once middle school was over, but I never stopped.

het i wrote in my journal to day

i used to do this when i was back in high school. I wish i had to time and the determination to sit and any write journal entries, if not daily, then at least weekly.
i want to write about my children and what is going on in the world and give it to them later in life. i think that would kind of neat.
