What I Need to Know
Have you already seen a diary? Do you know a person who
has a diary? Many people are keeping their diaries because of
their beneficial effects in the educational and intra-personal
growth as a human being. Diary writing will improve your
composition skills, vocabulary building and develop the pleasure
in reading. Through diary writing, you can recall your best
memories that are worth remembering. You can also observe your
emotional maturity with personal growth and development. Diary
experience will help you check your present behavior and the
way you behave in the near future. It will surely help you reflect
your emotions, feelings, realizations and deep thoughts toward all
things and people you have encountered.
Now, have you tried to write your own diary? Maybe some of
you have tried already and some have not. Nevertheless, this
lesson will teach you how to express your feelings and emotions in
a private, honest, and in a healthy and beneficial manner.
After going through this module, you are expected to learn
how to express your thoughts and feelings in honestly and
privately; and write a simple diary (EN3WC-Ia-j-2.2).
