My drafting was the same on this
project as it was on every writing assignment I’ve ever done. I always wait to
the last minute to do my assignment because I feel like my thoughts flow better
that way. The difference with this assignment is that I actually took what the
people said during the peer review into consideration. I usually dismiss my
peers’ response and only worry about what I think and what my teachers think.
The difference with this assignment was that after listening and reading their
responses I looked back at my essay and realized things that I could’ve done to
improve my essay.
I think that my latest draft was
pretty good but could’ve have been a lot better. I think that I need to find a
way to make the essay flow better in the parts before it gets to the story
about losing our season. If it was not for the word limit I feel like I could
produce a really good essay, but it’s really hard to fit everything in without
it sounding weird. I feel like it sounds like I was just stating facts without
being able to elaborate on it. I really had trouble with the paragraph about
when we lost our season. The reason I had so much difficulty with that
paragraph was because that season was such an emotional roller-coaster that it
would be impossible to describe in a single paragraph without feeling like I
was downplaying what really happened that season.
When it comes to the resources that
helped me write this essay I can’t really think of any. I’m not saying that all
the things that we did in class didn’t help but when I’m writing I really don’t
think about the things that we did in class. I always just write whatever flows
into my head. The only thing that I can think of that helped is the personal
credo because I wouldn’t have been able to come up the ideal to write what I
wrote without it. I don’t think that I needed any more information to help me
with this assignment, because as I stated before I just write whatever comes
into my head.
I really
enjoyed this writing assignment because I was writing about the things that I
believe in and not some topic that I was assigned and don’t care about this.
When I’m writing an assignment like this I really want to do my best with it
because it something that’s more personal. Once again the most challenging part
about writing this essay was the word limit. I feel like it could’ve been so
much better if there wasn’t a word limit. I feel like the most rewarding part
about writing this essay was the fact that I was writing about something that I
cared about and being able to tell the story about our lost season regardless
of how short it had to be.
