the end!

This semester, I honestly felt like I had a good idea of how to write, but it just seems like I have worked really hard and still not met the expectations. I am a little frustrated with school right now and my writing seems to be improving at a crawl which doesn’t really help me right now. I write a lot better than I did last semester, but sometimes I question what my writing lacks. Sometimes writing in certain parameters throws me off so I get a little confused. I honestly do everything that I can to write the best papers I can write. I purposely do the papers the day that we get the assignment sheets so that I can schedule at least 2 revisions with the writing center before turning it in. Sometimes I talk to other English students about my writing and the reviews are so far fetched that all I can depend on is the assignment sheet. I do feel like I have grown in my writing. Through the semesters frustration and when all else fails I have tried my hardest to follow instruction, and process. Though my writing hasn’t improved as much as I wanted it too I hope that the next three years changes that. The last two semesters have been an extreme challenge, but hey no one said college would be easy did they? I just wish more time was allotted or maybe even having the assignment sheets at the beginning of the semester so that I could work on each paper and critique and conference all semester on all three papers. Taking this class has really helped me though. I have learned a lot of mechanics of writings as well as a lot of techniques.
