In my earliest moments of middle school writing was one of my favorite activities to do because I could let go of emotions on paper. Writing was fun but it can also be boring at the same time because it depends what you can write about. When I got into high school writing was a week point. Even though I was not a great writer, I still have some negative and positive experiences that shape my writing today.

Even though my hand always hurt after 10 minutes, the next few weeks went by and my hand didn’t hurt after 10 minutes. I noticed a difference where my hand had more endurance and that helped a lot because after certain amount of time your hands hurts and you stop but you forget the word or your idea in your head but you can’t remember. So this assignment helped me a lot and helped me get every idea I had in my head on paper before it disappeared.
