College English!!

I have never been a huge fan of writing; it always seems so hard for me to put what I want to say onto paper. Every time I sit down to write it always seems like one of the most brutal school tasks of all. I have always been more excited about speaking my thoughts out loud like in a presentation form with bullets, or main points on paper instead of writing everything down. It seems like it is easier for me to ramble on. One thing that I have enjoyed from discussion posts and the readings is how it feels more to me like speaking my thoughts out loud in a sense. These posts seem so relaxed to me, I feel like the beginning question that we are giving is more like an idea that we can branch off of, there is no real structured form set. By not having a strict format to follow while writing the discussions I feel much more motivated because I’m expressing my view or my side of an argument the way I want. The articles that we have to read in class are much more interesting to me than books that I have read in past English classes. The articles are much shorter which keeps my attention and more interesting and real which keeps me involved. When I take the information I have read to class we always seem to discuss much deeper than a summary of the article. We try to find the argument that the author is trying place in the article. This makes the comprehension of the article so much more important. One I my favorite things about the interesting articles is that I actually read them which never happened with English articles in the past, I guess that proves that I’m more motivated.
