Dear Diary,

Today, I’m very happy. I won the Quiz Championship of my school, and I’ll now represent
my school at national level. Yes, I’ll appear on television. I’m so excited today that I can’t
express properly in words. My Principal congratulated me. I couldn’t believe it when my
name was announced. Thank you, God. Thank you very much. Mom, Dad, teachers, and
friends are all congratulating me. Mom is planning to call all my friends for a treat. I’m
jumping with joy and eagerly awaiting the national round. From tomorrow, I’ll start with
my preparation.

Wish me luck!
Aditya/Richa

Dear Diary,

I am feeling very excited tonight. I am going for a picnic tomorrow with my classmates. Some
of our teachers will also accompany us. We have been planning for this trip ever since our
principal gave us permission a month ago. We are going to Nehru Park. It has a large ground
where children can run around and play freely. I have packed some food items including
chips and biscuits. My mother has made a dozen sandwiches and a cake. My friends will
also be bringing some food, and we shall all share and eat. I am also carrying my cricket bat
with me. We plan to play a match. I feel I just cannot go to sleep tonight. I keep imagining
all the fun that we are going to have tomorrow. But my mother came into the room just now
and warned me that if I do not go to sleep now, I might fall asleep at the picnic! As if that
is ever going to happen! But maybe she’s right. So, goodnight! Writing Skills

Deepika/Sushant
