Just wondering, if we get asked to do a diary entry or personal reflection for section 2, are we supposed to do it in paragraphs? Real diary entries aren't usually in paragraphs, but seeing as this is an exam.......
Yes; it should also have an introduction/orientation and a logical structure and a sort of reflective 'conclusion' and such, and all the various other things that diary entries don't actually have, on account of the fact that it's not really a diary entry.
Approach it from as if it was a dairy entry for Einstein or a ship's log, make it extremely sophisticated, dont worry that it doesnt sound like you, make it sound like a genius writing in a diary
