What happened to the journal the mane 6 were keeping?

In episode 3 of season 4, Twilight proposed that they keep a journal of all the things they learned in place of the letters to Celestia. But after season 4 it was never seen again, what happened?

Seems it was simply abandoned, as was the entire idea of the moral lesson at the end of the episodes. While I don't mind the lack of those summaries, I think the show is better off without them, the random drop of the journals was something that bugged me. Unless the whole 'memories in Twilight's castle' thing was meant to make up for it. It is not really proper closure but I guess life goes on.

I guess the writers just forgot about it or something.

Just like the Other 6 writing letters to celestia about what THEY learned, the journal has been forgotten about by the writers and quietly retired.

 

They seem to have decided to get rid of the "what I learned today" closing method for the episodes.

Well, the letters from Twilight stopped because she was no longer the student of Celestia. And it probably wouldve been awkward for the others to be writing letters while Twilight didn't.

It was really a plot device for the season four finale. The journal was also a progression. Before episodes would end with Twiligt writing a letter. In season two and three the main six would write the letter if the episode was about them. After season four they abandoned the here's what I learned closure method. I think it's better. Before it felt lazy and forced.
