APPOINTMENT DIARIES.
An appointment diary is a private document in which you document daily activities, events, observations and appointments you want to remember. A diary acts as a plan or memory aid since it allows us to document important activities we want to honor.
A diary must have the following;
A title

Day and Date
This is the day and date when the diary is recorded. Remember to use the right format.
For example,
Monday, 5th April 2021.
The name of the month should always be written in full.
Time
It refers to a specific time when the specific activities were recorded.
Venue
It is advisable to indicate the venue even if it is very far away from your usual environment.
Note that the diary should be written in either past tense or future tense, this is because the events described in the diary have not taken place yet, therefore, students should avoid writing the activities in the present continuous tense. Keeping a diary helps one be organized, making it easier to remember appointments and engagements, thus helping one plan their time well.
