- Easier - You don't have to be a great writer, perfect speller, or creative thinker to keep a personal journal. Journal writing means that you regularly write down your thoughts and experiences.
-
- Harder - A journal is a continued series of writings made by a person in response to their life experiences and events. Diaries contain a description of daily events. A journal may include those descriptions, but it also contains reflections on what took place and expresses emotions and understandings about them. It doesn't matter what you call your writing, either a diary or journal, as long as you see the distinction between these two ways of writing.

Today I went into the city for my new job as ELICOS teacher. I enjoyed being in the city and found a cool and cheap place for sandwhiches. It is in a hip part of town and I can sit down and watch the people go by. I told my sister about it and she is trying it out today. Hope she wears here funky clothes!!
A journal doesn't have to just be about your observations and experiences. You can use it to practice all kind of writing and improving your English.
A blog is also a journal. Try creating your own blog and sharing it with the class. Your friends can learn about your exciting time in Australia and even write back to you.
