I chose this particular quote because I could empathize with that claim as it happens to me quite often. It is not unusual for me to simply write because I am told to and feel no real connection to what I am writing, though when there is something I am actually excited to write about I feel much more…

weaker muscles of, Vanity of, Strength of affections of, and Greater conscientiousness of, are examples of research she did to uncover why men produced literature about women. “My mind wandered to picture the lives of men who spend their time in writing books about women.” (Woolf, 1989, p. 19) I think she was overwhelmed by the strong but skewed views and text that had been produced and concluded about women. “Wise men never say what they think of women”, in my opinion would be a very…

When I first heard that we were going to be doing another speech I honestly was not happy about it at all because like many of you I was ready for school to be done for the summer. I began to think about it though and instantly I had three books that popped into my head and I thought that this assignment was not going to be hard.

Boredom Essay Reflection Before I had come to college and taken our Bored to Tears writing class, I really hadn’t thought deeply about boredom and searched into the depths of its meaning. To me boredom normally meant a person was lazy and unproductive or stuck in a boring situation, such as the science fair. The writing tools, class discussions, passages, and books that we read in class opened my mind to the world of boredom in a new light and allowed me improve my skills as a reader and a…

anything related to the English subject wasn’t my favorite. I hated poetry, I wasn’t an avid reader, and my skills in writing weren’t all that great because of how much I disliked it.
