What is a Diary Entry?
A diary entry is a record of one’s feelings following an event either sad or
pleasant. Diary entries are personal reflective in nature. Therefore, they may not
always be objective in view. You can write about whatever you like, free of
outside judgment or criticism. It should be an extension of your mind: safe and
free. A diary can be whatever you decide and should be a place where you can
be honest.

Dear Diary,
Tomorrow is the 5th of September. Nationwide it is celebrated as Teacher’s Day
to honour the great soul who was born on that particular day, Dr. Sarvepalli
Radhakrishnan. There are butterflies in my stomach tonight, since tomorrow I
have to present a speech at school. It is also an honour that I have been chosen
out of so many aspirants. I have therefore written a beautiful speech
appreciating the noble profession of our teachers.
They inspire us to do great things, guide us when we are wrong and dispel all
our childish pomposity. They help us refine our crude selves and become
respectable members of society. In honor of my favorite teacher Mrs. Saini, I
have dedicated a small paragraph in the speech to her. I sincerely hope that I
am able to deliver the speech tomorrow without any trepidation.
Good night.
