I am shamefully embarrassed of my first essay in this class. I was not aware of how terrible I was at writing. Over half of my sentences in my first essay did not make sense and if they did they were not relevant to the topic.

Writing became my best escape during the time that I am so down and depress years ago. Feeling overwhelmed and hopeless, I began writing all the challenges that happened from the first day of my struggle up to that present moment. I started reflecting on the issues that are bothering me. Lo and behold, writing relieved some tension I felt. If you feel down right now, you might as well do some scribbling. Trust me! You will feel so much better. Now, I feel myself writing again. Want to know…
