In the English major it has always interest me to learn about things related to text. It serves my own illusion and reality. As a former student in an AP English course in High School I read texts from Ernest Hemingway to Shakespeare. We then further discussed the book. It is why I am really interested in learning more about Oedipus and the King. In this class I would enjoy reading articles written by well-known writers to give our students and better idea of what a good writer is and how well their ideas are put onto paper.
As a writer I am aware that my strengths are structuring my essays or my blogs. I like to put things in order. If I write something that is out of place I would begin to feel discourage in my writing. My weakness is the introduction and the conclusion. My mind tends to go blank every time I’m starting an essay. And the conclusion is difficult for me also because it becomes a little arduous to conjure up sentences that define a closure of my entire essay.
Using blogs doesn’t really make a difference for me. Half of the essays I have written were on a computer. Therefore it feels like I’m typing things and just placing them at a public sight. The only difference is that I don’t have to print it and hand it in. One thing that is really helping me is that I am writing something constantly. If I were to just not put an effort in completing some of my task my essays wouldn’t be worthy of reading. I rather write things down by hand than being online. It distracts me much too easily.
My strongest piece of writing in my blog would have to be my Matrix essay, mostly because I enjoy the subject and because I feel comfortable writing of something that is very controversial. My weakest entry would have to be blog five simply because as I reread I felt like I didn’t grasp the main concept of what my task was. I’m sure other blogs are not as good as I would like them to be, then again I am only considered a beginner.
