Since I have not heard any rumors about English 101‚ I cannot judge how this class may go for me. English and Writing is not one of my strengths but I really believe this class will help me turn my weakness into a strength. The way we were taught to write formal essays in high school are nearly the same as it is in college. Using the MLA format was big in my high school because we were told it was going to be a necessity in college. Something different about this class is having to write everyday

For my Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) meeting assignment I attended an AA meeting held at Annunciation RC Church in Paramus. I was a bit nervous before coming in to the meeting. I had my own personal feelings towards alcoholics for some time. I had a few relatives that dealt with alcohol with some of their lives. Like most families from my background‚ talking about alcoholism just never happened. It was something that was kept secret and never discussed. My religion tells us that drinking any kind of

The biggest challenge for me is grammar and punctuation and it always has been a problem for me. I am surprised to actually like
