Looking Back

This semester of school has been a really fun one for me. I've been around byu for a couple years now, but have decided on pushing back my freshman writing until this semester! Alongside writing I've spent the semester engulfed with art classes and with more programming. And although my figure sketching has been the most fun class for me during my stay at BYU, writing wasn't as bad as I thought it would be.

Back throughout middle school I was good at writing. Though with those classes if one was able to write one's name on a piece of paper it was passed with an A. But in high school I was bumped into an honors class with the worst teacher in existence whose only goal was to fail me in all aspects of my writing, and sense then I've avoided it at all costs.

This class has helped me reach heights that I've never shot at before. Before hand if a page was to exceed a length of three pages it was too much for me. I would want nothing to do with it. But the class then threw a ten page assignment into my face. Though it worried me for weeks, I put much research into the topics. And by the end of my research I was somehow not only able to reach the required amount, I was worried that I wouldn't be able to restrict myself to ten pages!

On top of that I also had the opportunity to better myself in identifying more aspects of writing. And I was able to more better analyse other people works. For me my writing class has giving back a confidence to my writing that I have long lost before. As well as set me up to better succeed in the future as well!
