How I Write

When I first started this class I thought it was going hate this class. I really enjoy writing but, I hate that you need to go back edit all my error but now I understand why I need to fix my problems so that my paper is the best that it can be. I have learned a lot about my writing process. For the first paper I didn’t do a very good job on prewriting I just sat down at the computer and typed what I was thinking about. I did the same for most of my paper and honestly it shows because on the evaluation paper that we had to do. I found that if I work hard on my pre writing process that it helps me make my paper stronger by giving a clearer point of what I want people to get out of my paper. I think that I still have a lot of grammar issues that could easily be fixed by just reading my paper out loud and truly reading it word for word and not just filling in the words that are suppose to be there. You have told me many times to read my papers out loud and I can easily notice the grammar errors that have been in all my papers. To be honest I would say that the research paper was the hardest paper that I wrote ever. I find it extremely hard for me to read something and turn things around to put them in my own words. Also the MLA format for citing other peoples work is hard not only for me but I am sure for other. I don’t think that I will ever truly understand what is expected from me I will still have to talk with the teacher and have them explain it in more details. The one thing that I will try to continue on is grammar. This is an on going issuer that in order to turn in 4.0 papers I will have to take extra time and work on them constantly.
Like I said before the evaluation paper was the only paper that I worked on a writing process for. So for that paper I started off by writing down some things that I remembered from the movie and then from there I wrote down what I wanted to get across to my readers. Once I had that all figured out I watched the movie and paid close attention to detail names, scenes, EST. From there I wrote down some additional information that I found interesting and moved things around to make it work in my paper. Before I wrote the paper I sat down and wrote the beginning and looked over that a few times to see if that is how I wanted it. Once I made my final decision I wrote my paper. I found that this process worked so much better than just writing what I thought. My paper had fewer errors and flowed much better. There are many ways that I could improve my writing papers but, the ones that are some huge issues that concern you as well as me. My prewriting process is one thing that I need to do for all my papers. I believe that my reflection paper could have been a 4.0 paper easily if I would have taken the time to do a pre write and work on common errors that I find in most of my papers. I will try to give my self more time to work on my papers and not wait until the last minute to write papers. I do procrastinate most of the time but as you see in my papers that if I could have given myself one day to work on pre writing and reading papers then I would have saved you a lot of ink in you pen.
I really enjoyed this class as a whole and am looking forward to speaking with you in the future about some choices that I should take in order to get the best advise on what I should do on my papers as well as on the education program.

my feelings towards my portfolio

When I first started to work on my portfolio I got really frustrated it seemed as if I would never get anything done. My mind was scattered with all this information that I needed to do on every paper. Once I started to get the flow of things it went really well. I am happy with the end result of my portfolio I am looking forward to getting my grade but on the other hand I am very nervous because this is a huge part of my grade. As I look back to the first few days of this class and then think about what we are doing in the last week of class what a tremendous change in the way I write and how a attack my writing starting with pre write and topping it off with a well revised final draft.

last 2 weeks of semister

I am really happy with the way I have done in this class. When I first walked into class I just thought it was going to be another boring writing class that all we would do is write papers turn them in and get a final grade. For me this is not the case at all I enjoyed this class allot with the exception of a few things (GPAWS). As I look back I realize that I have become such a better writer. starting with my Pre-write and finishing my papers strong on my final drafts. This class has truly changed my feelings towards writing paper and or writing in general for that matter. I am looking forward to turn in my portfolio on Thursday and then doing a few more things to my GPAWS. I will be very upset with myself if I don't get at least a 3.0 or higher in this not because I think the teacher was out to get me. but, because I have let my self down by not living up to the standards that i set for myself when I started this class.

story

Hi my name is Mac Draft. I am a 25-year-old male that is currently living above a bowling alley. I have been working as an accountant for 5 years now but what most people don’t know I also work at a stripper at a place called Hairy Nuts. I enjoy working at Hairy Nuts I mean the pay is amazing and there are little extra perks that come with being a stripper. One of my favorites is I get to have sex allot. The only down fail is that I am kind of slow and I forget to use proper protection. In which this has lead me to be a father to five beautiful children. I love them all very much and I will continue to do whatever it takes to keep supporting them. I would like to stop stripping when they all get older but I have came to the conclusion that child support needs to be paid. So for now I will continue to strip. I am also a Accountant and my organization skills are amazing, I love wearing my nice suites and ties during the day then switching to my speedo by night. I love the thrill of living a double life. This weekend I get to see one of my kids, Amy, she is four and a half, the youngest of my five children. My mother comes to my home above the bowling alley to watch Amy for the night because my strippers job keeps me out late. Tonight is a Batchloret party one of my faves. This nights is an old ladies nigh at the club and I have t miss it because I have a Batchloret party I have to attend. Old ladies nights at the strip club are my absolute favorite! So, that is definitely a bummer but I am happy because I also love the Batchloret parties. I will go tonight wearing my best speedo! The silky, red, white, and blue American flag one! Oh man I am so excited. It will be a change for me just because I could have some ladies my age there. Who knows maybe I will get lucky again. In that case maybe I should stop by the store and pick up a few extras just to be on the safe side. After I leave the store I start heading towards the party. When all of a sudden a truck comes out of nowhere and smashes my passenenger side of my 1984 ford tempo.

Evaluation paper

I don't know how everyone else is doing in this paper but I am finding that this is more dificukt than i thought it would be. I have my topic and I have done alot of prewritting but I am just having alot of troubles just converting it into a great paper. I think that it is going to be very interesting to see how these papers turn out. I really dont think there is anymore that we can do I just think that it is going to be a challenge for me to surpass this writting mental block. well I am going to get back to working on this damn paper.

Evaluation

The simpsons is a comedy that has cartoon charters that are not the normal family that you would see in the real world. In the simpsons TV show there is always a situation that comes up somewhere in the show that we as humans can relate to. In the episode called "Springfeild" there are a few themes or situations. community expansion is something that you can see in just about every city from houses and school to business and companies. In the Springfield episode they talk about improving the econamy by having a casino built. In contrast to that people in the town become addicted to gambling. Marge becomes so upsested with gambling that she doesn't come home for days at a time. With marge not coming home the house becomes a hell hole. Not only does the house clean up get put on the back burners Marge didn't live up to her promise that she made Lisa. The promise was that they were going to work on lisa costume for her school project. When marge never shows up Homer makes the costume for Lisa and it ends up looking rediculous. Lisa gets all up set and stroms off. when Homer sees how upset his daughter is he marches down to casino and tells marge that she has a problem and she needs to get home ASAP your family misses you. Gambling can realte to many people in such as they have family members that gamble the money away that is suppose to pay for the bills and put food in the house. Gambling is a serious issue and will continue to be an issue. There is no way that we can just stop it. There are even adds on tv now that state don't let gambling take over your life or in some other words that mean about the same.
