Which Question Did You Feel Was The Most Beneficial? Why? Analysis

Decent Essays
Which question did you feel was the most beneficial? Why? The question I felt was the most beneficial was “Who Am I?” because I do not ask myself this question too often, and to see who I think I am in my head and to put it on paper shows me that I like who I am. Not in an arrogant way but in a self-sufficient way. When thinking about the question I wondered who am I to others and how I want others to perceive me. I also wondered who will I be in the years to come that is why I wrote my goals and future accomplishments, so in years to come I can look back on it and see just how true and determined I was too myself.
Which question did you not feel was beneficial? Why? The question that I felt was not beneficial was “What stresses me out?”

The short term benefits is that I can daily write about something that I usually would not and learn from them. It also allows me to think of ways to better improve my well-being a day at a time. The long term benefits would that I can go back and read my entries and see just how much I have grown and accomplished. One day when I am old I can use the words I put on paper to be more generative and better the next generation.
Where you surprised by anything during or after the journaling process? I was surprised just how beneficial is was too me. I started the journal process off thinking it was a waste of time. I started doing it not thinking about what it was for, but as the weeks went by I realized just what the point of it was, and that is to find out who I really am. The process opened my eyes and allowed me to look deep into who I am and allowed me to see what kind of person I am. Altogether the journal process allowed me to write my thoughts about life, my emotions, and my future. It allowed me to see what I really thought about myself, which is good, because I can see just how determined I am. It made me set expectations for myself, and in the years I can reflect upon it and see just how far I

    My writing experience prior to taking ENGL109x was not good. I have always had trouble with how to begin my essays. I honestly never really looked into strategies that can help me begin my essays, therefore I was stuck for some time until I could come up with something, then I begin to type. Not only did I have problems with starting my essay, but I also had problems with how it flowed, especially to the reader. Since English is my second language, grammar errors is something I have always had an issue with.…

    The story that I want to share is, the basic yet often talked about transition, between high school and college. High school was so much easier for me back then, you could get away with so much more and not worried about homework as much. Now in college, it feels like I’ve sat down for the longest, scariest, most agonizing rollercoaster of my life. English in high school wasn’t much of a concern to me. Teachers didn’t persist on teaching students good writing habits or the depth of what writing can go into, like they do in college.…

    Last week, as I was strolling past a middle school, I saw a teacher sitting down next to a student. The teacher was giving advice to the student. The image of the teacher helping the student reminded me of when my English teacher would help me with my assignments. I enrolled in Advanced Placement English Language and Composition in my junior year at Grant High School. AP English was rumored to be a very tenacious class and the teacher, Ms. Warfield, was known for giving perplexing reading articles for homework.…

    English 106 was the first real college class that I ever stepped foot in, and because of that, I was extremely nervous and unsure. The English teachers at my high school always said that the papers they assigned were held to college standards, and I always did well on those assignments, but I was still unsure about this course. I expected this course to be loaded with reading and writing assignments that would make me pull all-nighters on a regular basis. After going through English 106, I realized that there were not too many assignments and that I learned a lot from each one. To me, the most salient parts of this course were the discourse community paper, the annotated bibliography, the art analysis, peer reviews, revisions, and reflections.…

    Teenagers are mostly sassy, angsty, witty, and overall an unpredictable bunch. However, there is no exception to sixteen year old Holden Caulfield, who probably possessed all of the stereotypical characteristics of a regular teenager. Holden has been just another misunderstood teen who was stereotyped on his road to adulthood. He made adults everywhere say “Yeah, that is basically my son/daughter/other in a nutshell”. With this said, I will not deny that most teenagers maintain some, or all, of the personality traits stated above, but there is obviously more to us than goofy actions and sassy comments.…

    An exercise in class allowed me to understand my own reasoning for helping others as well as what may be my own selfish reasons for seeking this profession. For example, at one point in the exercise, I broke ground into my own self-assessment and found insight that I was partially seeking the profession for money and for my savior complex. I felt that this observation of myself showed that I was overall, functioning normally with both healthy and minimal unhealthy motivations. Another concern that came across my mind is when I have a…

    Before I researched How Music affects Mental Health I knew that music touches a different part of the brain that can be distant or hard to connect to without it. Music also plays a huge role in my life as it does many others in the world. I sing everyday and that’s therapy in itself. My curiosity with how music affects mental health began when my sister started music therapy. Ever since I was a little girl I've always turned to music to get me through hard times.…
