I have learned about my writing process that I like to be creative when I write. I also like my essays to be organize before I write, so I know exactly what to write about. I believe I am strongest at freestyle writing. I like to jump in and just start writing. Even if I don’t always know what to write, I can usually come up with something.…
My mind feels like a 1000 piece puzzle missing a piece. I can’t simply find the right words to say to start this paper. It is always like this when freewriting; the idea of freewriting in and of itself frightens me. Never able to put the words in my head onto paper in a way that it can be read eloquently by others. My hands start to cramp automatically at the idea of freewriting.…
Writing is an art; we create our thoughts in your mind and express it on paper. Once we start writing we keep getting new ideas and when we re-read what we wrote, sometimes it might surprise us. I like to write during early mornings or in the evening when it is quiet. My reading table is facing towards the window so when fresh air is in my room, fresh ideas generate inside me as well. I make sure to have some healthy snacks and a bottle of water in front me…
I am firm believer in making the best out of every situation. This semester has been a great learning experience that came with a lot of adjustments and surprises. I started off my semester to a rough start due to late registration which led me to playing catch-up in a lot of my courses. Even with these minor setback I still was able to achieve some of my goal that I made for the semester.…
As a senior at TCPS, I am currently taking my second dual-enrollment college course, comp one. Before this college level writing course, I thought I had the skill of writing papers mastered. Throughout grade school, writing a paper in a few hours was easily achievable and was the general thing to do. My peers and I easily wrote papers without effort and made good grades. Therefore, when I started my first college writing course, I thought this was the thing to do.…
I would say I have a neutral opinion on English classes. Some days I like them, and some days I dread the time when I have to go home and write another really long essay. My writing process has always been about the same from year to year because I tend to do very well on most of them. I have really enjoyed reading books and plays in class, and I hope we can do that in the future.…
Both of us are having a same trouble of finding a topic for writing or researching. After finding the topic, researching goes easily. Even if I come up with any ideas about my topic it takes me very long time put them in paper. Pre writing and brain storming are challenging for me. I cannot just sit and start to write about the topic.…
A way I express my creative side is through my writing. When I’m writing I’m the one in charge. There is no one telling me what to write or how to write. There is no rules to create boundaries for how I should so I’m able to do this as freely as possible. I used to have an account where I was able to write as much as I want and have the stories I wrote open to the public.…
At the beginning of the semester, I viewed myself as a creative writer. After attending this class I realized that there is a lot more that goes into writing an essay, or a research paper, than just creativity alone. I have learned that it is very important to be aware of my strengths and weaknesses in my writing. Taking this class has helped me understand the strengths and weaknesses in my writing skills, and it has given me the opportunity to strengthen the areas in which I was weak. An example of this is that I have become aware of my grammar and spelling errors as the semester progressed.…
I am disturbed by the tedious reality that we are taught to inhabit. We sit there as the clock remains still, accepting the colorless outcome of silence. With every tick and click, we wait for some burst of light to shine within our minds, but we tend to contain too much gray to see beyond that light. Well, I am not part of “we”. I live by my own words, to “let colors conquer the realistic mind.”…
You know when you are watching a movie and the main character is strapped to a bomb; you know they won’t die but you can’t help but feel your palms sweat. Well, that has been my experience with writing so far. Hilarious or odd way of describing my relationship with writing I know. Although, I have always received good grades and positive comments on my writing I can’t help but feel like the bomb is going to go off. I am feeling it right now……
Composing Essay Duarte page 1 Writing has never been easy, but the more years of practicing writing the easier it seems to get. To every great writing piece there is always a great writing process. Some process may be very structured and some may be a spur of the moment type process or others may be in between. My process has always been the spur of the moment type.…
Signing up for the class “Essay Writing” was not the happiest moment of my life. I was anxious and apprehensive. I felt an insane amount of dread. I did not always feel this way when it came to writing. My relationship with writing can be described as complex.…
As we all know, the final Unit assignment is a personal reflection about what I’ve learned and who I am as a writer. In my opinion, only talking about everything I learned can be really a boring thing, I prefer to talk more about myself, my changes throughout the semester. After all, most of people like biographies much more than academic reports. You should know, readers, as a writer, I have an obvious difference from others. I’m an international student, come from China.…
A Reflection of the Self I found this to be an appreciable assignment in which I was pushed to exceed my normal comfort zone in writing and expressing my views. This assignment helped improve my writing and reading in several ways. I overcame struggles in my writing, reading and found innovative ways to progress through these difficult texts in the development towards writing this essay. The process of going from “Madman”, “Architect”, “Carpenter” and “Editor” was a tremendously useful tool in the creation of my paper. These progressions and workshops allowed myself to have a focused task instead of worrying about everything at once.…
