Or- brace yourself- I have a great idea! You can go to a store. Or amazon. And you can look through the aisles until you come to a weird rectangular thing that has like this hinge thing at one end, but all the other ends are open. If you open it, the rectangle thing is made up of pressed and processed dead tree fibers (and if you're fancy, linen), all bound together at that hinge. If you're using amazon, search for "journal" or "notebook". You can get something called a pen or a pencil or a marker or a crayon, or go crazy and use all of them, and you can use it to make marks on the pressed tree fibers, called paper. Its like typing, but weirder, because you have to use your hands. You can even use hashtags if you want, but there is no way to look things up via hashtag :( ! And then, you can put things inside with the writing, like photos (printouts from instagram) and movie ticket stubs and flowers and any other little stuff like that that may be significant to what you're writing. And when you fill it up or get bored with it, then put it away someplace safe. And then in like, IDK, 5 or 40 years, you find it, and OMG its not lost to the obscurity of the internet, and you can relive your lost youth, and see these things that you touched and were important to you, see how your handwriting changed, and all that stupid stuff, as opposed to a twitter account, which, public attention span willing, will be gone in 10 years, and with this 'journal' thing, the only followers you have to worry about are people you live with who might not respect your privacy or personal space and belongings. I mean, a journal won't let you follow 200 people, but you might actually look at it later and it might actually mean something to you when you're older.
Is it normal to create twitter as diary?
