In a diary entry, the writer pours his feelings, emotions and thoughts like talking to a best friend. The language used is informal and personal depicting the correct emotion felt at the moment.

The correct answer is Option C. The writer is sad and disappointed and the statement makes it evident.

Options A and B are incorrect as the statements are way too formal for a diary entry and thus do not adhere to the format of a diary entry.

Option D is incorrect as the statement is justifying the feeling but whose feelings are those, is not clear.
