My writing this semester has generally been good. I definitely feel like I have improved it though. I wanted my writing this semester to be a little more detailed and researched based if that makes sense. I wanted it to be fancier I guess. I think my goals were met because of the exercises in class. I really liked the lesson on finding research the right way because it really helped me meet my goal. Also, I loved how I was able to write what I liked for one project in the class.
Based on that, my favorite piece of writing that I am particularly proud of was my rhetorical analysis. It was just so fun to write because I was able to watch my most favorite movie again and be able to really analyze it. I loved reading all the articles about the movie I watched for research. Reading it right now, I feel super proud of my writing. I was so proud I have been asking everyone in my family to read it, and I have reread it myself a lot. It reminds me of the essays I used to read and made me realize that my writing has really come a long way.
One piece that was kind of challenging for me was my literacy narrative. I knew what I wanted to say but the words just were not coming out. I think this was mostly because there was no research to be found or anything to analyze since it was about me and my life. I got over this by talking to my parents, especially my dad which was what my essay was mainly about. I started looking at homework from kindergarten and just started to reflect on my writing since I was little. Reading over it now, I think I did a good job. I like what I wrote and it is a nice piece that I think I will enjoy years from now because it is an essay that shows my development and how my family played such a big part in it.
Overall, I really loved this class. It was a safe space and everyone was so nice, The only really bad thing about it is the time it starts because leaving my house at 6:30 am is insane. But no this class was amazing I loved it, and I would definitely take it again.
