As a student of the College in the Schools program, the class WRIT 1301 has provided me the opportunity to improve my writing and prepare me more effectively for college. During this semester course I worked with peers to improve not only my own writing, but also improved my analysis of peer works of similar structure. My first paper, a narrative titled Confessions of A Living Sin, was arguably the easiest piece to create, while simultaneously being the most difficult to write. Narrative pieces push writers to write of moments that are strong in emotion, and often times leave the writer vulnerable to whom is reading their work. For me, my vulnerability was discussing the ostracism I faced as a queer and transgender person in a conservative catholic church. Because this piece focuses on an anger-fear fueled moment, I am able to use more expressive writing such as “The unbearable desire to peel off my skin, peel off the feelings that weren’t ‘normal’,” seen on the third page of Confessions of A Living Sin. While I was able to rewrite sections of the narrative or take out parts from the first to the final draft, that did not make it easier for me personally to express my feelings on paper for a professor to read. Following the narrative, was the critical review of Korean Barbeque Pizza, from a restaurant in South Minneapolis known as Pizzeria Lola. Writing my critical review proved to be fairly difficult for me, because it was not a paper focused solely on analysis nor…

A GUI isn’t the only thing that makes an operating system, its performance, familiarity, hardware support and security all play important roles to their success or failures.
