Diaries. That's an interesting thought right there. Books written by people, where the story is their life, all their secrets, feelings and current events hidden between two covers. Kids have them, adults as well. Famous ones include Samuel Pepys and Anne Frank, and nowadays every celebrity has one in autobiography form, where all the scandals and lies come from. I have had one myself, but I could only keep it for a couple of weeks before I gave up. And even then, it tended to be the most simple information inside, such as where I was and what I did that day, none of this 'soandso is suchandsuch' stuff. Which brings me to another point; how could anybody possibly put their truest feelings onto paper, when such things are more than likely to cause a problem if discovered? I've never understood that. In fact, in my one and only diary had one slightly regretful comment in it, and even now I feel a bit annoyed because I put it down. Surely nobody has a completely undiscoverable diary, but then again most of us when we younger used to think we were capable of keeping secrets, so why not think hiding a diary from prying eyes was easy?
Also, how come TV and Films always seem to be a whole era behind the public when it comes to mobile phones?

Diaries. I kept one (well, various, no one book could keep up, I suppose...) for about 13 years... I guess that it comes out of a necessity more than something you sit down and plan to do. Sometimes there's a need to express a true feeling about something, like a secret you really want to share but just can't. Some people trust others, others trust paper.
No one has a completely undiscoverable diary, unless they keep it in a safe or something - which isn't unheard of. But the question isn't so much that it's undiscoverable, it's more a question of in whose reach it is, and if anyone knows about it. Surely people don't go looking for things they don't exist.
Some people even write things down for the sake of liberating themselves from the feeling of wanting to express something, only to go burn or otherwise destroy the paper they've written it on. (Electronic version subsitute would be erase de file).
Interesting you should write this entry though, coincides more or less with something I wrote this afternoon. Maybe I'll pass it onto here from the paper I wrote it on. lol...
