Between The Secret Diary of Laura Palmer, Lesley Arfin's Dear Diary, Journals by Kurt Cobain and The Princess Diaries I have learned one thing - exciting things happen in notebooks.
Sure, you could record your most secretive inner thoughts and dastardly deeds in a laptop, but how fun would that be? No one could accidentally find it unless they had some elaborate spy film computer hacking sequence (which let's face it are always BOR-ING). Plus paper is heaps better for sketching out your dream mansion, bank heist route, or album cover artwork for your imaginary rock band, The Pickles.
