#7

Looking back at my first blog, I really thought this class would be somewhat different. Only because of creating blogs. When you first was discussing the blogs, I thought that we would be able to write about anything. Creating a blog was interesting because in a way we did write how we felt about ideas or concepts learned in class. When we recieved our first essay, I thought that I didn't do bad. But getting my paper back and seeing my grade, I was in shock. I did learn alot in this class. What has been helpful in this class, is the examples and concepts that are being projected. Usually when I write I like to just free write get my thoughts out on paper and that's it. But in Ms. Spencer class I was able to either add more descriptive details, coma splices, etc. or just fix my errors on my paper . There isn't much to change about this class. It's a writing class, we learned concepts, write essays, and read. I liked that after a essay, we would go into peer review with our classmates. It was a good thing too because I was able to get feedback back about my paper. It helped out a lot. Since the semester started, I believe that my writing is still the same. But as the essays continue to be assigned I know my writing skills will grow and improve. I can say that I looked at writing a very easy thing to do, but now I find it challenging and being able to force myself to think outside the box. I think that's a good thing. Hopefully my writing skills improve and I become a better writer.
