Month-Long Writing Challenge

Improved Essays
This is the 1st entry of the 30 I will write for a month-long writing challenge.

I’ve actually never thought about a list like this, but it turned out fairly simple to complete.

Be a feminist, an ally to the LGBTQ community, an advocate for the rights of minorities, etc, or just volunteer. To put it simply, I love anyone who has an open mind, an open heart, and who genuinely wants to make others’ lives better. Being around people and working with them and helping them brings me joy. Also, if you’re doing community service only to get hours or certificates, please fix your life.
Take me out to exercise. I don’t do drugs because I enjoy exercising. I’m open to all kinds of physical activities that are not intensely life-threatening. Outdoor

I have visited very diverse communities ranging from the inner city of Detroit, MI to a small, economically depressed village in Honduras, to the mountains of Pennsylvania and inside homes very different from mine in my own…

    I wasn’t sure what I expected when going to my community service for the first time. The place that I choose, the Lincoln Park Community Shelter, resided nearby the Lincoln Park, DePaul campus, so I just thought it would be an easy travel to and from the train station. Walking to the site, it was something that I’m not easily used to at home. Around there, there were clean and beautiful scenery all around. Every block I would walk pass a jogger or a person walking their dog in the peaceful environment.…

    The biggest influence on me as a writer was the introduction to National Novel Writing Month, or NaNoWriMo. NaNoWriMo is a worldwide phenomenon based out of California. The basic idea is to give writers a chance to stretch themselves by challenging them to write fifty-thousand words in one month. As November approaches each year, novelists prepare to be antisocial and concentrate their brain power on hammering out a novel. From my first introduction to NaNoWriMo in 2013, I have participated twice and have yet to reach 50k.…

    My writing isn’t nearly as advanced as I would like it to be, and this is mostly because I don’t write on my free time. I only ever sit down to write when I need to for an assignment or if it is something for work, however, I do occasionally make journal entries, but it is very rare. Even though I don’t write very often, when I do, it isn’t that hard. I ranked myself a six on challenged to gifted writer because I don’t find writing a challenge, but I am not that great at it either. On the other scales I put myself down as a five.…

    Describe your commitment to your community through service-oriented activities such as volunteer work, civic and other group activities. My feelings about serving the community can be expressed by this quote from Mother Teresa, “At the end of life we will not be judged by how many diplomas we have received, how much money we have made, how many great things we have done. We will be judged by “I was hungry, and you gave me something to eat, I was naked and you clothe me. I was homeless and you took me in.”…
