313 Words2 Pages

Because I broke my glasses and couldn’t work for a week, I had to work overtime all weekend. Being so busy, I ate mostly preprepared or fast food, namely a frozen breakfast sandwich, a Subway sandwich, and a gyro from a local cafe. I actually considered having a breakfast sandwich for lunch on the second day but was worried that it would look like I wasn’t putting effort into my work, so I packed a quick lunch. Unsurprisingly, the sandwich I made had less sodium than the frozen one. Plus, my usual morning cereal has no sodium. I would be far more over the DRI of sodium if I ate more refined cereals, even the “healthy” ones; for example, Cheerios have 161 mg sodium, and Raisin Bran Crunch has 200 mg of sodium. Having time to cook something,

    My history as a writer has been a bit of a struggle of slow development. From a young age I had a hard time with spelling and this is still a trouble area for me, even with the help of autocorrect. As I grew in age and as a writer my problematic area became not including enough nitty gritty details. My bad experiences that I recall would always involve the start of writing because I struggle with beginning paragraphs. Also, I tend to use the ending paragraph to just repeat myself, so overall my first and last paragraphs are usually shit.

  • Personal Narrative: My Writing As A Writer

    335 Words  | 2 Pages

    As a "writer" I 've found my writing style to be more of a put together flourish of words and thoughts that in another 's opinion might seem like it never left the drafting stage (besides the few grammatical edits and big words to make it seem like it was written by someone smart). I went through a stage of writing in purely second person, and because of that I lost the ability to respect the need of more emotional descriptiveness. I 've gotten embarrassed to write in that context and end up passing it up for more serious tones that just don 't get my writing anywhere extraordinary. I want to gain confidence in my writing so I can go the places I want to go with it, while also learning to keep it organized and in line with my exact thoughts. My thoughts seem to provide a more well-laid out idea than my actual writing does.

Everyday, whenever I have time or am in the mood, I try to write something before I go to bed. Whatever that had been scratching at my brain, or something that I want to experiment, I write down before the thought becomes meaningless. Inspirations come from many different sources and at many different times of the day. Often times I find myself struck with an idea when I 'm outside, only to inconspicuously jot my thoughts down onto my phone.

    Writing the first essay had its challenges, starting from the preparation in developing a good paper. I had challenges getting previously annotated work, on paper, in a way for the reader to understand. My writing style emphasizes my voice and thoughts in the moment instead of thinking it over in advance before I begin writing. This was our first essay in English 20, so I wanted to put an extra effort to make sure important points from the text were mentioned in a way for the reader to understand. I was able to get more feedback about what I needed to improve on instead of the things I was successful within in my writing.
