Achieved

When i came to this class I wanted to achieve to be a better writer. To be more confident with my work. Honestly I believe I achieved better writing skills. But I still feel unsure and uneasy of my essays I turn in. I remember the first blog talk about how unsure and not confident I was about writing because of my experience in high school. With writing 101 I still feel confident and unsure. I don't think I met my achievements and feel far from it.

However, I still think that in order for me to achieve this goals I need to start writing more and taking my multiple drafts seriously. Multiple drafts are for everyone even for good writers. It takes time for a great paper to come out. My grammar and spelling need to be more thought out . I need to have better structure and clarify things more. Also I cant forget about my audience.

Analyzing other peoples writing help me strengthen critically because now I just don't read the article I go deeper into it and try to see what they mean by each statement they have.

Pot For the Non-Smokers

When I was handed back my ad analysis I was surprised to see such a low grade. I was more than 90% sure I had great supporting details for my thesis statement. But then again my weakness was not being clear enough. I had many red marks saying explain, to vague and etc. One of the biggest weaknesses i have is been afraid to explain more because I always end up getting off topic, so i find this weakness something hard to control. for example in this analysis i state " they should remember that their readers come from all types of races, and to say something like this seems close minded. I see red words saying " Why does it seem close minded.?" If i answered it I felt like I was going to go off topic.

In order to try to see the improvements I can make in this paper, I will try to first of a;; maintain focus and organization. Organization is such a big issue, because I always try to just answer the assignment other than pay attention to my thesis statement.

Also I will pay attention to the paragraph in which I find "Personal Response " next to it. Definitively not a personal response but a conclusion.

I have to be more careful with words that I have in my essay because each word can easily change my essay.Lastly this simple and grammatical words are ruining my papers I have to put more time onto my paper and try to dig deeper into trying to review my paper.
