"I reveal things about myself that I did not realize I was revealing at the time," she says. "It's just the reason I love the five year journal is I'm experiencing the change in my life." The writer has kept journals from 11 all the way through early college and into her 20s. She also keeps a daily diary of what she gets done each day.
