For one, I don't know if any of you ever saw these kind of journals but they have sections for doodling, questions and things about you at the time, and general written activities for you to follow. Basically guided journal writing for kids. What I found was rather interesting. Children are so blunt. xd Here are some examples:
-There is a picture on one page of the journal with a doodle of brain space basically. They tell you to label the assorted spaces of varying size. They have already labeled a tiny section for "homework" and a large space with "Friends". Little Me switched them.
- There is a section where you are supposed to detail three things that day and then on the opposite side it gives a future date to fill in the same information but with reality. The first question asked you to draw a "dreamy husband-to-be". Little Me wrote "I DON'T PLAN ON MARRIAGE" over the whole space. Next question asked you to draw a picture of your future home with boxes to check (shack, house, apartment, mansion) below the drawing space. What did Little Me draw? Little Me simply wrote "won't fit." and super-checked mansion.
- One page is all about how you feel about your body at the time. Little Me apparently ignored all the answers and wrote "I'm Perfect."
- A doodle page follows the body page. One section says "Draw the person who annoys me the most in school with a bucket on their head." Little Me drew a crowd of bucket-headed people.
- (Last one I'll share) There's a page of "If" statements. The first one asks "If I were really famous at something it would be..." It's hard to read but I think Little Me wrote World Psycho...or maybe it's World Peace.... Also, several If statements are blank like Little Me couldn't answer. These include questions about baby names for future children and changing things about yourself.

Anyway! Have any of you ever found things written down from your past that made you pause, laugh or were just an interesting indication of your character as a child? Care to share them?
