A travel

journal

（日记）

is one of the best ways to keep a long journey in memory.

While you are writing your travel journal, many things don

’

t seem s__81__, but

they often turn out to be what make the trip so memorable.

It is important to have the h__82__ of writing your travel journal every day.

When you are on a busy journey, you probably won’t remember to write. You may

promise that you will write l__83__, but that almost never happens. Take a few

minutes every day and put down your memories. It doesn’t have to be long.

Use your “down time” p__84__. There is a surprising amount of sitting around

while traveling. You can always put down a few lines in your travel journal when you

are on trains, waiting for planes, or waiting in line.

In your heading, write down the day, where you are, who you are with, maybe

even the weather and what you eat. These are the details that people are most likely to

f__85__. After many years when you read your journal, you will know exactly what

you were doing on that day.

Focus on writing about how you feel. Listing facts and figures is fine, but that

isn’t why you traveled. A long journey is a time for

self

-< /p>

reflection

（自我反思）

.

Memories of these feelings

fade

（褪去）

quickly with time, so it is important to

write about those experiences when the memories are still f__86__.

Keep

ticket stubs

（票根）

. Whenever you use a ticket for a train or a museum or

a ride, stick the stubs to your journal. They are also a good r__87__ of your travel

experiences. One day you can look at the ticket stubs and see exactly what you were

doing on a certain day and how much it cost.

1) Remember, you are not a___82___. There are hundreds of teens experiencing

what you are experiencing this very moment! Although you may feel a million

different things, just keep in m___83___ that there are people that are feeling the

same way.

2) Don

’

t be afraid to make new friends. There are many people who s___84___

the same interests as you and are looking for those who have that interest. Sometimes

you may have nothing in common but the need to make friends! Remember, there are

plenty of teens out there for you.

3) Join an interesting club or sport. High school is the time to t___85___ new

choose from, like the environmental club, Spanish club, cooking club, and so many

more! Many schools also offer a wide variety of sports, i___86___ a freshman level!
