    DIARY ENTRY

    Diary writing is one of the most personal and informal category of writing. Diary writing usually
    involves the regularized recording of personal feelings and reflections on a topic. It facilitates growth
    of self-awareness and self-reliance. Written in the solitude on blank pages, writers can reflect on their
    life experience, contemplate future directions and come to trust their own answers. Sometimes the
    events of the day leave one with a sense of joy or hurt or even anger which one can give vent to,
    through a brief diary recording, usually, at the end of the day.

    m
    Diary writing involves more than just a straightforward recording of thoughts about a subject or a set
    of headings. Since diary writing is very confidential, the writer is at liberty to condemn, curse or praise

    co
    anyone, without fear or apprehensions. Generally, diary is used to bounce off ideas, to unburden

    y.
    oneself. However it can be regarded as a sign of personal growth. An entry is made in the diary, so
    that, the day with its accompanying emotions may be remembered.

    SAMPLE
    You went to Shimla during winter and experienced the snowfall. Write a diary entry of about 80-100
    words about your experience that enthralls you whenever you recollect your visit.

    Saturday, 11th January 2016 9.30pm


    I a t forget how a great joy a e efore e whe I saw the first ever snowfall. I with my
    friends went to Shimla. Luckily when we were strolling leisurely on the mall and viewing the
    view of the mountains and greenery, the snow began to fall. Soon everything looked covered in
    a white sheet. We went into a playing mood, made snowballs and threw at one another. The
    entire scenario was simply lovely. It remains embedded in my consciousness. Whenever I
    recollect the scene and the time that we spent in that most joyful scene, my heart starts
    dancing with a great pleasure. I feel like William Wordsworth when he recollected the dancing
    scene of the daffodils later and derived immense pleasure.
    Truly the visit is my greatest treasure of joy and bliss.
