New Year Horrors!

So, you've recently just given in to all of you friends saying you should by one particular item. Ever since, it's been sitting on your shelf collecting dust. That's right, you decided to buy yourself a diary!

Personally, you don't feel that it would be beneficial to start a diary that simply talks about your day - 24/7. No worries; Geeker's here to keep your brain active by just redecorating your diary!

1. Make your diary into a log book. Yes, that's right; you could store everything you've learnt on a particular subject. If you're into medicine you could create a daily log recording interesting conditions, news, and all sorts of other things! If you're into languages you could write a log book of new words, techniques, or structures you've learnt for a particular language!
2. If you don't really know what you're into, why not just make a fun fact book?! You wouldn't have to specialise on any particular subject - just simply write one fact every day!
3. Or finally, if none of these suit you, you could write about your daily experiences! If you feel inspired by something that happened today, explain how this person has influenced you!

Don't let that diary get drab...
