i tried to keep one every now and then, but i am not really diligent in writing. I write in it, once a day, then once a week, then once every month... but i do not even bother now.
Some people say it is nice to have a diary, although i forgot why.
Do you have one?

From the time I got one at 7 years old I wrote in it every night until I was about 21. After my daughter was born I had less time to write. Then I got active on social media sites and writing on there about my day kept me from bothering to write in my diary, I haven’t written in my diary in over 5 years.

I used to keep a diary. It helped me remember when certain things happened and how I felt.

I had one when I was in primary school but not anymore. I don't really have time to write stuff in a diary these days.

I had it before I discover Bubblews. Since I love to write I don't have time to write in my Diary because I have an online writing site. When Bubblews disappear and did not pay me. I sort of blogging where I write most of the time. And when A friend of mine introduced me Mylot just like Bubblews. I left Diary but I have a planner now.

I've never had a diary. I once attempted to have one, a virtual diary app, but then I am not really conscientious in keeping a daily record of my life. I'm only good for the first few weeks or so, then I'll lose my momentum, get tired of keeping track and eventually stop. I guess I'm just not into it.

No, I haven't done so for a long time. Today it seems it is no need for me to keep a diary and it will spend me a lot of time. I like to write down something important in the social networking app and it is in brief. I can still chase my record there. I think it is better than a diary.

I don't have diary like you sometimes I forget to write on it every day. Though it's good to look back in the past as you read your old diaries

@lady1993 Why not just type them in the computer?

I had one when I was very much younger but eventually stop the practice. I think it was because I didn't like the idea of others being able to read my thoughts and things I did. However I'm thinking of starting a journal as a way to get into a daily writing routine.

I used to write down my thoughts a great deal. I still use notebooks, but mainly for lists. One problem with my OCD is making lists. I do it a great deal.

i"ve never had a diary, but i did have a book of dreams where i would write down some of enjojable dreams i had, so I dont forget them.
Also i had, what I called, a black book, where i wrote when I was angry on someone, it helped to throw the frustration out of myself... but i havent used it for last couple of months...
