Writing!

I had to think about this assignment and try to really be honest with myself.  Have I really progressed as a writer?  I thought back to my first assignment right up to our last assignment.  My answer is “yes”, I do think that I have progressed as a writer. 

     There are a couple of reasons that lead me to this decision.   I think that I have gained a lot more confidence in my writing.  I have had to learn to organize my thoughts and convey them in an organized manner in all my writings.  I’ve gotten a lot of experience in writing in different forms from blogs to different types of prompted writings.  In high school, I found it very difficult to even think about writing and I tended to procrastinate.  Now, I don’t even dread working on papers like I used to.

     In addition to all the reasons previously listed, I think that I have come to the realization that I need to work harder in school as I need to get serious about my grades and do well in college. The choices that I make today affect my tomorrow.  I guess, all in all, maybe I ‘ve matured a little bit in my attitude and my work ethic when it comes to doing my best in school.  With all the reasons discussed previously, it’s easy to see why I think that I have progressed as a writer.

  1. This blog to me forever to figure out what I wanted to write about too. Sometimes I wonder the same thing? I have to tell myself the same thing that how I do my homework today effects me later.

  2. Remember, now that we've done actual papers in class, you can focus your case study on a particular assignment: Case Study--Lit Snap or something like that.

  4. Logan,
    Finally you came out and said it. I know, because I sit right next to you. I think that I have been doing better to. I actually have a chance to express myself in my blogs and give my opinion.Everything in high school was boring for sure, it makes it a lot more difficult to write. It might be more writing, but at least we express our own opinions rather then someone else. Good job!

  5. hi logan, I still have to express myself better in blogs. I usually do my writing papers first now instead of putting them off like i used to.
