Week 11

My writing process is still pretty simple. First, I think about what I'm going to write and do some brainstorming of my ideas. Then, I try and for some kind of outline to make my paper sound organized. For me to write a good paper it is beneficial for me to write a lot of rough drafts and read them to weave out some of the things not needed in my paper and to state my ideas in a better way. Since the beginning of this course my writing process has changed a little bit. My process mainly depends on what kind of paper we are writing. One of the assignments they gave me some trouble was the annotated bibliography. This was my first time doing an annotated bibliography and I was some what unsure on what I was supposed to do. The process for this writing assignment was fairly simply once I understood what was to be done in the assignment. My process for this was to read all my sources and get the main idea of them. After getting an understanding of the sources a gave a brief description about each of the sources and gave reasoning for why this source would be beneficial for me to use in my mini-ethnography. This assignment of the annotated bibliography was surprisingly one of the easiest assignments in the class also once I understood the concept of it. I believe I write because it is a good way to express feelings and emotions. Writing makes you feel like you have some kind of a voice and people who read your writing will listen to you and understand. In my life I believe writing plays an important role. If I do not want to talk about some of my feelings I can just write them down instead of keeping them inside which is unhealthy. Everyone wants to be heard and I feel like writing is valuable in letting that happen. For almost every type of writing you give your on feeling and opinions based on what you believe. Writing for my future is also important in the previous ways they are now, but also in other ways. I plan on being a teacher and being able to write is very important for me in that career.
