Writing

My writing experience throughout my three years of high school hasn't been that bad. Writing isn't something that is really easy for me because sometimes i have an idea in my head and then another idea and it's hard to get all of them down on paper in a way that makes sense. I have found that this has been the problem with my writing since freshman year because i have had the word awkward written in my papers many times. Although I do think that I have improved especially with the help of Mrs. Edwards. She made everything really clear. I think that I understand the format of a formal essay now and i can base my writing on that skill. I also think that my wording has improved some but that could still use some work. I think the the most difficult part of writing is starting because I have all these ideas and trying to think of just one is really hard because if you pick a bad one you're stuck with it for the rest of the paper unless you want to rewrite the paper. Rewriting the entire paper never really seems like a fun option either.

I wish i could do that and that's kinda what i try to do but it never works out.
