Do I like to write?

I really like writing about my own thoughts, for example writing diary, but I don't really like to write an academic paper. When I write just for my thoughts, it gives me pleasure, because verbalizing your own thoughts helps you to look back on yourself and helps you to understand yourself better. However, when you have to write an academic paper, it often requires you to do a lot of research and you can not really write your honest feelings. So whether I like writing or not depends on what type of writing it is.
