    Dear Diary,

    I am proud to be a part of the welfare organization of my school as I always wanted to help the old people. Through various activities, we collected a sum of 2 lacs. This fund will take care of their health care, entertainment and adult education.

    I feel content and happy like never before.

    Time 9.00 P.M.

    Dear Diary,

    I feel sad today. I participated in speech competition for the first time and I literally, froze when I was half through. I was performing so well and I don’t understand what went wrong with me. I was down in dumps the whole day.

    But, now I have decided that I won’t feel disheartened anymore. I will take this failure as a stepping stone to future success. I will work harder and better myself to win the competition next time.
