My writing = A mess from the begining.[5]
From the beginning, my writing has always sucked. I've never had a person sit down and teach me how to write a nice, flowing paper, which that not happening looks to be hurting me now in high school.
After doing my Rhetorical Analysis and reading over my comments, I've taken into account that I need to stop using so many big words and be patient with my writing. I need to stop doing last minute and become comfortable. Also, I need to study up on some English! Passive vs. active voice, making correct sentences, all that jazz.
The most important thing I need to get over writing now is AWKWARDNESS. I'm to shy about what I feel on the subject I'm writing about and make it so... that my true feelings aren't very noticeable. This is because I don't want to be the only one who felt differently or was wrong. After that, I'll be able to work in what I've learned and hopefully become successful.
[PS - I know my numbering is off on my journals! Going to fix Monday after class!]
