Even when teachers gave us prompts to write about I struggled writing about them mostly because I thought writing was boring.

Being a civil engineering major I see why writing is so important in my career field. My experience with writing has had its good moments and its bad moments.…

The only part of writing that I would say that I excel at is the revision process. I have one writing goal, that being to have better grammar, other goals are financial.…
