3.)What do you feel you need to continue working on?

I most definately feel that I jneed to work on being more acertive with my writing and being more creative. I do not write well in third person at all so that is also something I feel I need to work on. My timeing is a big problem with my school work as well.I was late on several things so I thing something I need to work on big time in my text term in prioritizing my homework and then everyrthing else. 4.)What quotation(s) from the reading this week do you feel will help you the most as you continue in your education?

I feel that the tip that staes "writing is not a gift, it is a skill," is going to stick with me a while. I always used to say that I thought I was a pretty good writer. After taking this course I have realized I have lots of things to work on. That is what is going to make writing even more fun for me now. I Have realized that there are always things to improve on. No matter how big or how small. I also really liked the quote that states, "you can never have a perfect essay." I have a feeling I will be using that to help other later on in life when I plan to one day become a school teacher.

5.)If you had to give advice to a student entering EN101 next term, what would it be? My single most important advice would be to always give yourself plenty of time for an assignment. You never want to find yourself rushing to do an english assignment. That is a course you have to put lots of thought into and you can not rush your mind into coming up with an amazing topic, or supporting sentences. You really do have to take your time. I was bad about reading an assignment and saying to myself, "Thats only going to take twenty minutes, I will come back and do it later." Next thing I knew it was due in a few hours and the more I read into it and realized how complicated it was really going to be, I ended up turning it in two days late. So my advice is

    Personally, I’ve always felt I was a decent writer in all aspects regarding research and personal narratives. Considering those are subjects that interest me and that I love to read about. I struggle the most when it comes to making my writing hold a deeper or hidden message when the topics I am told to write about don’t interest me. Having to do rhetorical analysis with old literature and having to explain the main idea was my number one struggle in AP language and composition senior year. But other than that I felt, throughout high school, I enjoyed writing and taking a majority of the writing classes my school had to offer, not only because it was required but because it was something that teachers and myself felt I did acceptable work.…

    I don't have much to say about writing for myself. Writing doesn't mean much to me. I am not a writer. I am an orator. However, writing does mean something to my wife. I love my wife. She loves to write. She spends hours a day writing. I watch words flow from her fingertips as she writes page after page. She doesn't let me read much of what she writes, but when she does, I can see the passion and the joy that she has for what she writes about. I wish that I could write with such a fire.…

    Overall, I am not a completely horrible writer. I’m good at getting my point across, and just flat out writing once I get going. However, there is definitely things that I can improve on, as there almost always is in life. My grammar skills and sentence wordiness can greatly be improved, this will come with writing more and looking over my work. I didn’t really write papers until this class, so these issues will also get better as I become a more experienced…

    Procrastination has become such a bad habit for me. It is hard for me to stop procrastinating. I believe I do my best writing at the last minute. I usually wait until the night before to do most of it. I am usually up late the night before the paper is due. Having things due dates has kept me on task, and keeps me from procrastinating until the day before the paper is due. There was one paper which we had to get sources for a while before the paper was due and it forced me to keep up with the paper, rather than let it go to the last minute. This class has taught me that the earlier you start the more positive your result will be. That was my mistake with the argumentative paper.…

    After the initial work of conceiving ideas and thoughtfully organizing them, then it’s time to get down to work and create sentences and paragraphs that will communicate to the reader the ideas you have. Each sentence, in its own way, tells a story. For it to be effective in telling the story, you must be able to put the sentence together, scrutinize it, and correct any problems the sentence might have. Unlike spoken language, written language does not give the luxury of a back and forth exchange. It is not possible to know if the reader understands, nor is it possible to go back and fill in the…

    Procrastination and typing are two challenges that concern me the most about my online learning. I sometimes important things off until last minute typically because I get busy doing other things and forget about them .I usually think about them at the last minute and try to hurry to get things done. Since I have begun my online learning I have tried to stay on top of things instead of waiting until the last minute to get it done as I normally would. I feel that I am a strong willed and I can get anything done that I set my mind to do. I have planned a certain time each day to study and do homework to keep from getting behind. I will seek help from my professor, counsler, and online resources as I need to become successful at Ashford. Typing is not a huge concern to me as I have been practicing every day to get better at typing. I also found resources online to aid me in typing as well. I will continue to practice each day and use the resources I have found to progress my skills.…

    The time passed 11:49 PM and I was typing my essay faster than ever, carelessly dismissing grammatical errors. As I slaved away on my essay, I realized the quickly diminishing time left was my true motivation. It was now 11:58 PM. I swiftly dragged my essay on the computer into the designated folder where it was due and turned it in with a large sigh of relief. Also, this is a true story.…
