Explain in a short paragraph (at least 150 words) why you decided to sequence your paragraphs as you did.

The reason why I sequence my paper like this is because that how it makes sense to me, if its understandable to me, I believe it would be understanding for the readers as well. I decided to speak about the things, that I know would stand out. When I write a essay I always make my outline simply, with basic information. So I can be able to stay on track when writing my paper. I put enough information in my paragraph so a reader can understand where I'm coming from.
