Blog #17: Final Blog
Walking into class on the first day and hearing everything we had to do definitely made me question what I was doing in this class and my abilities as a writer. I was very nervous and anxious the first couple of weeks, but as we started the whole writing and research process my nerves and anxiety calmed down a little. I wouldn’t say they went away completely because there was so much work to be done and I still was not sure how I was going to accomplish everything that needed to be accomplished.
I think I used this to my advantage because I knew there was no time to procrastinate. That if I procrastinated that I would get so far behind that I would not be able to catch back up. I knew I had to keep up with all my work and keep on top of everything that I had to do. I think this made me a stronger writer because I tried not to let myself get to stressed out about what I had to do. I knew that by staying on track it allowed me to put the time in that I needed to write a good research paper.
As far as my future as a writer I believe this class has made me stronger. It allowed me to have the confidence that I need to be a writer. It allowed me to have confidence in my writing and the fact that I could start from nothing and come up with my own research topic and do the research that I needed to write a good paper that I was proud of.
