I loved writing a diary when I was younger
so I started by searching for my purple, fluffy, lockable diary, still intact
with its very own secret key! In fact id quite like to buy myself one now, but
not sure it is suitable for a University degree course! My purple diary was
epic! I had a daily list of the boys I liked, the boys my friends liked and
simply matched them together (a bit like the TV programme ‘Take me out’).
Therefore I could not wait to start this task. I feel it will really help me
reflect on my learning experiences rather than my future career as a matchmaker!
However, obviously my diary when I was
younger was completely different to what I have to write about now and the
style certainly needs to improve.
When I read this task I was initially
excited, but when actually coming to do it the main question that I asked myself
was what style of writing should I use? I am very good at babbling on to my
friends and family about how I feel and what I did at the weekend etc but was
this good enough? And how does this translate to a written account for a
University degree? So at this point I referred back to the handbook for
reference. I like the idea that it is a private space for my writing; no one is
going to mark this or judge me. However, I will have to use my journal as a
resource later on. Therefore initially it is important not to worry too much
about style but more about content and learning experiences. As I go along I
feel my writing style will evolve and I will eventually find what suits me best.
