Essay number 2 is far more easy for me. saying that, the first essay i did was sloppy and horrible. since we had almost 4 weeks to do it, i became lazy and disfuntional. the reason i became lazy and disfuntional was i thought in the back of my mind, "oh, ill have plenty of time to work on this stupid essay later, i can afford to relax and pwn noobs on halo." but to my surprize i was way behind and i didnt turn in my roughtdraft and lost 50 points.
that was a wake up call to me, and now that i have competed my second essay i feel that i did much better under the shorter time frame. it encouraged me to do more work more often; instead of doing a parragragh a day, i wrote a whole rough draft and edited it everyday. i used to think that one rough draft was good enough to proceed to the final, but doing that i missed out on a whole bunch of creative and critical thinking steps which produced a crappy #1 essay and i was graded thusly. [low pass]
when i think and reflect on my second essay i feel confident i did they best work in writing i had ever done, i put alot of hours into that paper and i feel that i will earn a good grade. writing this paper has, i think, unlocked or crushed a mental road block that i used to think that i couldent write or i was a bad writer. i'd like to think that i have matured greatly in my writing proccess and i feel that my creative/critical thinking skills have greatly exceeded what i thought i was capeble of
