I absolutely love this series. I'm kind of tempted to buy a stranger's diary, but I'm a little nervous because I stink at reading cursive, and I'm worried I'll end up with one that's illegible. If I do buy one, it might be a more recent one as I think cursive is less common in the 21st century than it was in the 20th century.
I'm keeping a diary and if Joanna ever got her diary-loving hands on it, she'd probably be disappointed in the lack of crush talk since I'm ace and sworn off relationships. But hopefully the family drama I write about would make up for it lol.
OMG i'm so happy I found your channel I remember your BUZZFEED video where you bought someone's diaries.... from an estate sale for $160 lol and the poor girl barely got sleep. LOVE IT - I've put on all my notifications for your videos yay!
Why is there a vomit emoji in the start of the title! This is not fair. I tried Oreo Handi-Snacks for the first time in 2022. It was delicious for me, But, For you, Why not? (Edit: Why. Just Why. Do you not like it.)
It sounds like you can donate diaries to the Smithsonian but it's unclear what kind of diaries they want/would accept. www.aaa.si.edu/services/donating-papers
Hi Joanna, I don’t know if you’ll see this comment. I found an old woman’s journal in the trash and I would love to write a book about it. I’m trying to get a hold of her family to get permission, do you know a bit about what copyright laws would get into play in this situation? The woman keeps writing that she hopes someone will read those pages and feel for her and I really do. I feel for her so much. Her story is very sad, but so beautiful.
