This is definitely going to classics.

Annie I think I love you!

I love this.

I kept journals religiously from the age of about 10 to my early 20. In the beginning they were just three line entries in a small journal, but by 13 the where full page sometimes two page essays in an A5 book. That went on until about 18/19 when I got married, moved away with DP and started university, then I dropped down to a paragraph or so in a standard diary.

I still have all of them, some are so cringeworthy but I love them I'm so glad my mum encouraged me to write journals, being able to look back is great. Especially when I can look back and read what I wrote about DP when I was 13 and he was "like sooo annoying but sooo pretty".

Have to choose my GCSE options ...... Arghhhhh
Choices
I have to make choice about my life?
But what if I get into really deep strife?
Can not I reach 20 years on, and see,
What life is meant to be like, for me?
Can't my decision be made by someone else!
It's just that I can't make that choice myself.

I still go on like this when I have big decisions to make

Poetry is the food of love
Music the dessert
When you've finished making love
You simply have to burp

Think I'll go now, how can I follow that?

My pig necklace has gone! My heart is broken! My chain of love snapped! Misery to me!

Jane's got a sexy mag under her bed. It's called "LOVELY AND TRUE" or something like that. I've read a little, she doesn't know, of course. It's quite passionate actually.

Made a keyring in metalwork today and a quiche too.
The quiche was made in Home Economics.
It was yucky but the keyring is nice.

PISS OFF MUM. I'm not being cocky you fat bitch. You think you're so great. You're the cocky one yourself. I was only explaining - both times - and when you are losing the argument you back out by calling me cocky and cheeky!!!

This is hilarious. I never kept a diary but sadly my BFF forever and I wrote letters every day to each other. I threw all mine (from her) out and she's bloody kept all the ones from me, were 32 now and I live in fear she will release them on Facebook one day.

BeaWheesht · 19/02/2014 18:20

Lol at 'mum said she's seen them cheaper elsewhere'

Anniemousse · 19/02/2014 18:22

I reread my diaries a few years ago and it was not a good idea. I felt exactly how I felt back then and it caused a few problems Sad. Obviously boy related Blush.
