Log on and sign up for an account on a website that will let you keep a private, password protected journal. "Penzu" is a site made exclusively for private online diaries. "Livejournal" allows you to set your whole journal to private in your account settings. On blogging sites such as "Wordpress" you can set just one entry or a whole category of entries to private. Look around on different journaling sites to see which one you like best.

Write your password down somewhere if you don't think you will be able to remember it, or just keep it around until you do know it by heart. Make sure your password is long enough and complicated enough so that someone won't be able to "hack" into your account. Hide the password somewhere safe--its the "key" to your private diary.
