Sometimes it helps to write everything down.

    I personally don't. This is mainly because I cannot find the time to sit down and right these things down as well as I am paranoid that someone would find it and read it. If an event happens in my life that is significant enough to where I want to remember it, I will naturally. I don't feel as if I need a dairy or personal notepad to do so.
     
    I have one, but I only use it when I feel I need to, to get stuff out that I can't or don't want to say to people at all, or at least until I've had time to think it over.

    I've tried keeping one regularly but that never really worked and I dropped it.

    I see what you did there. . .


    I've contemplated keeping a journal, but have never gone through with it yet. Probably because I really, really need to work on my handwritting.
    Let me put it this way, I have a rather high capacity for being a doctor. . .
     
    I don't keep a diary. I just never really did, nor do I think I could have the discipline to keep updating it every night. I'm using all my self control just to practice my french horn every night, I can't afford to spend it anywhere else. D:
     
    Nah, I don't. I did try to start one when I was younger, but it never really took off. I'm usually pretty public about my life, since I don't really ever have much to hide. =P
     
    I don't keep a diary per say, but I do write a lot of fiction. I really feel like my emotions I'm feeling might spill out into my characters from time to time. It's like a diary in code... I have no idea if this even makes sense.

    I'm sad = Sad story
    Happy = Happy story
     
    I have a personal journal to record events that happen in my life. It's not updated every day, but if something happens that I want to remember, then I write it down. There are also a few entries for when I have various feelings or thoughts that I want to get in order.

    There's nothing posted online, though. I used to keep an online blog to talk about things happening, but I lost interest. So my blogs are more fandom-related when they're posted online these days.
     
    Why would I keep a dairy nothing really happens in my life than important to write a dairy. However I write stuff on a calender if something comes up
     
    I'm having a diary like some weeks ago, and I write anything that I wanted to say, even though I rarely write there. On related note, I have a blog on another side though, that I write in it almost every day except if something is up. I usually write the things I'm interested in, and what's happening in my life.
     
    Diaries are for losers. I write songs instead.

    (songs are gayer than diaries though)
     
    I used to, but I realized that all that was being written down in it was the dream I had the night before, but I would scribe so irregularly that I would either forget the dream or end up skewing off into some sort of irrelevant tangent that didn't help me at all.
     
    I've tried to keep diaries throughout the years, but that was boring because it reflected my life and I know what happened and what I thought about it. I don't care about committing it to tangible form. So now I just keep a notebook of to-do lists, problem-solving processes, planning, fic notes, etc etc. Things that are interesting that I can't immediately do anything with and don't want to forget because they're good ideas.

    i filled half my notebook with backstory for characters before going "huh maybe i should write this as a fic"
     
    Ha, no diaries for me, thank you. I've already learned my lesson.

    I have a Tumblr blog, but I don't really post in it much. I usually just rant about the things I like, the things I hate, and sometimes about my adventures to different places. When I'm angry or depressed, I type a really, really long blog post just to get it off my chest, but I don't really publish it. I just close the tab and I'll feel better after that.
     
    I do journal and I do it every night. Is it therapeutic? Yes and no, but mostly no. But what it does do is permit me to get my thoughts out, somewhere, rather than have them jockey for position in my head. Overall though my journals are, for me, just nice, somewhat organized places to further develop thoughts and inquires.
     
    I used to keep multiple diaries and even a dream diary when I was very much younger. I would use it to write out my thoughts about anything and everything from my daily activities to my dreams to my innermost thoughts. I also have a blog from years ago which I still remember the password to, but I don't use it; not anymore at least. Nowadays I find keeping a diary or a blog updated quite a hassle and too inconvenient. If I want to rant, I'll do so inside my mind or take it to Twitter.
     
    i have a blog mainly for writing down what i feel about certain things, and not necessarily what happens to me all the time. i think it's better than to say it to someone who won't listen. based from my experience anyway.
     
    I tried a number of times to keep a daily journal back when I was in middle school, but failed just as much as I tried. Then there was the time when my sister found my journal and shared it with my mom. After that I pretty much stopped making an attempt altogether. The closest I come to writing down my thoughts now is when I jot down ideas and plans I have for a book trilogy I've been working on so I don't forget.
     
    I do, I've just about always had journals, I threw away the first few because I was embarrassed of them, but started keeping them from 2010 on because some stuff has to be remembered, details of events must be kept in order no matter what. . . Sometimes I just ramble about stuff, sometimes I draw, but right now I have this 365 days thing going on where I answer a question each day (though I forget some days and have to catch up LOL).
    I don't like having blogs or putting those kinds of thoughts out on the Internet because, it's not like anyone is really going to bother to listen to me, and I don't really want anyone else to know this stuff I've got to write down, y'know? >.>
