Writing a paper is something that does not come easy for me. I have things that I want to say, but when it comes to putting it onto paper it seems difficult. If I am just thinking about the paper, and doing something else I can think of really good ideas. However, when I sit down to write it I seem to forget what I was going to say. Another problem for me when I write is I tend to procrastinate. When I procrastinate, I make myself feel pressure to write, which makes the whole experience worse. Therefore, my experiences in writing have usually been very tense for me. So when I think of writing I associate it with no creativity, and a lot of tenseness.
Since I have all this knowledge, I want to change my writing to a more positive experience. In the future, I am going to have a pen and paper with me when I am starting to think about working on writing assignments to help me write down ideas that start coming into my head. Then when I start on my paper I will have some of those great ideas to help me get started. Also, I plan to not procrastinate and get assignments done ahead of time. Hopefully, if I follow these guidelines my whole writing experience will be much less tense, and end up a much more positive experience. It is my goal overtime that I will actually start to enjoy writing and expressing myself. I plan on working very hard to improve my writing skills because I know they are necessary to be successful in college.
Logan,
ReplyDeleteI totally understand where you are coming from, I have that same problem. I actually think that a lot of us feel the same way you do. You definitely made some good points in your blog, awesome job!
Logan, You've taken the most important step to making your writing easier! You've noticed what hasn't worked for you in the past. That's awesome. That will make your work this semester much easier. Remember YOU are the only one in control of your writing and all the choices you make regarding it...
ReplyDeleteI agree, putting what you think on paper is a challenging task. Your brain thinks way too much to be able to put it all on paper, let aloe put it into an understandable perspective. Sounds like you have a good grip on how you want to improve your own writing, which I think is a great thing to be able to do. Writing can be tough! I agree 100% with Stephanie's last sentence she wrote.
