Good morning, my Diary!
May 16, 2008 at 9:15 am | In Posts | 2 CommentsIn earlier times when diaries were priority for young ladies nobody was allowed to read them. Some writers and composers kept diaries. Their diaries are now published but it wasn’t their aim to allow everyone to see their inmost thoughts. Diary is for private use.
But what about electronic diaries?
Now electronic diaries become very popular. But I always ask myself question how frankly writers are. There is an expression that you can hide and stay anonymous in big city easier that in small town. Probably it works here. Users write under pseudonyms that help to hide their identity. But on the other hand most of the users have friends that comment their posts.
I’ve never kept a diary. I was always scared that someone would read it. That’s why the idea about having a blog was shocking. I still don’t feel that it is entirely mine! But it is definitely the most intimate assignment I’ve ever had.
I don’t know if I’ll keep on writing here but I hope it is not the last day for my blog.
Anyway, I want to say thank you for Richard Bailey for this great idea to make it compulsory and I hope he has the same pleasure reading it as we have while writing our posts.
And of course lots of thanks for everyone who commented here. Especially for my friend Kate! Thank you for always being the first to comment, for lots of ideas and support! I really appreciate it!
Is it time to say “Goodbye”? Maybe just “See you later”? Have a nice holiday guys and good luck with dissertations!

‘A young woman should keep a diary. Then she’ll always have something sensational to read on the train.’ From The Importance of Being Earnest by Oscar Wilde (and from memory, so I may not have the quotation word perfect).
I have enjoyed visiting. Thanks for sharing.
