INPUT ARTICLE: Article: This method covers Word 2007 or later on a Windows, and Word 2011 or later on a Mac. If you don't know your version number, here's an easy test: if there's a "ribbon menu" of icons above your open document, follow these instructions. If there's no ribbon menu skip to the next method instead. If you only see a row of tabs labeled "Home," "Layout," etc., click on one of these tabs to expand the ribbon menu. Click the Text Box button on the ribbon menu. This is under the Insert or Home tabs, depending on your version of Word. Click on the text box and type in the text you'd like to rotate. Notice that clicking on the text box makes a border appear. Look for a line that extends above the border of the text box, ending in a circle. Click and hold this circle. Move your cursor while holding down on the circle to rotate the text box. After rotating, when you click the box to edit the text, it may snap back to the normal orientation. This is just to make it easier for you to see what you're doing. It should return to the position your chose after you click outside the box. Hold down Shift while rotating to limit the possible positions. This makes it easier to rotate to even 45º or 30º angles, and to make parallel text boxes. If you're having trouble achieving the look you want, try rotating using menu commands instead:  Double-click the text box to open the Format ribbon menu, or select the Format tab. Click the Text Direction button in the ribbon menu. In some versions this is a small, unlabeled button with an image of vertical text. Select one of the options from the drop-down menu.

SUMMARY: Check your version of Word. Insert a text box. Type in the text box. Click the circle above the text box. Drag to rotate the box. Hold Shift for cleaner rotating. Use menu options instead.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: A dream diary is a place for you to record what you remember of your dreams upon waking. It should be written as soon as you wake up, because your dreams will soon be forgotten.  You might keep a small notebook, pen, or pencil right beside your bed. Or, you might try an app on your phone that uses speech-to-text technology. No matter which sort you choose, the main thing is to be able to access it as soon as you wake up. If you’re interested in seeing patterns in your dreams, try writing a title on each one for easier indexing. Consider analyzing your dreams using a dream dictionary, or by looking carefully at the imagery you see recurring in your dreams and thinking about what it might mean. This kind of diary can be fun to create if you’re thinking about the possibility of your children, grandchildren, or great-grandchildren reading your diary in the future. This kind of diary includes detailed information about your everyday life.  You might want to include newspaper clippings, recipes, your own thoughts and comments on the daily headlines. Consider including both national and local events, as well as personal family information. If you’re going on a trip, keeping a daily diary of the places you’ve been, things you’ve seen, people you’ve met and other detailed information about your trip will help keep your memories alive for years following your travels. It will also help you live more fully in the moment of your trip as you consider details for including in your diary.  Take plenty of photographs, and carefully label each one by date, place, and any identifying information regarding people in the pictures so that you’ll be able to remember them later. This is a diary that’s often kept online in a blog format, but can also be kept by writing daily entries in a book. A reading diary allows you to keep track of all the books you’re reading. You might want to include a short description of each book, its author, and your own response to the book. You can make your own rating system, and rate each book according to its merits.  There are many options for keeping a reading diary online that you can explore. These can be useful if you want to quickly link to the book’s online description. You can also use a reading diary to keep a list of books you want to read, books on your wishlist, or books you started but never finished. This is a list of things that you’re grateful for, no matter how small or large. Research shows that people who keep a gratitude journal have lower stress, improvement in self-esteem, and more positive outlook on life.  Some research suggests that keeping a gratitude journal might be most effective when done on a weekly basis, rather than a daily habit. Think about imagining what your life would be like without the specific thing you’re grateful for. This is a way of making the gratitude journal more interesting. Write about the good things that happened that were unexpected or surprising. If you’re working on a long-term project, whether it’s building a house, planting a garden, or teaching your first course, consider writing about your progress in a diary. Keeping a diary about the work you do towards this project can help you chart your progress.  Keeping a diary is also a good way to write down details that help you learn about your project. For example, you might want to write about project materials you’ve tried, and the results you found. This way the information is found all in one place, and can be referred to later. A diary might be used as a place to store up sketches, ideas, random thoughts and observations. You could include clipped articles, pictures, or quotes from other people that you find inspirational.  You can include these ideas in any kind of diary, of course, but some people prefer to maintain one diary that contains nothing but their rough sketches and ideas. Quick drawings of things you see, or imagine, might be scribbled into a diary of this kind. Consider minimizing your diary entries. For example, limiting your entries to one sentence per day. Or one word. Or one picture. Try writing in haiku.  The purpose of this kind of diary is to allow you to create a quick snapshot of your mood, your location, or your thoughts about the day. One diary possibility is to write down one adjective at the end of the day which describes that day. Then write another that you hope will describe the next day.
