Ace: Why do I need to Keep a Diary?

I'm not going to say Dear Diary it's pointless.

The Professor persuaded me tow write here. I'm not sure what I'm meant to put. He said it was 'tradition'for people who traveled with him to keep a diary like this. It's hard to imagine Mel and whoever else it was keeping a diary. I mean could he really have persuaded them all to do it and what about the person who started it all? Whoever they were probably chose to keep a diary but why did the next person have to continue it?

It's pointless.
