My Writing :: Education Writers Teaching Essays
My Writingmight get then again, maybe you wont. I guess it dep closedowns on the situation. There is a me behind everything I write. That I know because if I didnt exist, neither would my writing. But Ive come to the purpose that there is more than one possible me used in my writing instead of me incorrectly portrayed as something Im not. Each me is distinct and appears in its proper writing situation.The first paper we wrote for this class is an excellent example of me hiding behind, but not deserting, my writing. My paper on the metaphor for a university f on the wholes loosely under the category of The Official Style because it contains a plethora of passive be verbs, prepositional phrases, and gender-neutral nouns, such as student, instructor, and everyones favorite one to avoid using that whole he/she thing. Reading over it this weekend, I decided that I still pair with my metaphor although I have a different perspective as to where I place myself in my vision of a university . Im glad that I didnt actively place myself in the paper because ten weeks later, Im looking at that metaphor differently. As I thought about my metaphor, I realized my perspective as a student changes depending on what part of the quarter or year it is. At the beginning of each quarter, and especially each year, I try and convert myself that I want to place my studies first, but by the end of a quarter, and especially the year, when Im waylaid by many assignments, Im sick and tired of school to the extent that all I want is to finish up whatever Im working on and be done with it. This is very unfortunate when you consider that the work at the end of the quarter is usually worth more than earlier assignments. When I wrote our first paper, I honestly believed that I fell in the middle between my nous of good and bad students, but I sway back and forth between each side every quarter so I estimate Im neither and not in the middle either.My writing style changes the same way my per spective as a student changes. It changes to fit the situation. Ive come to the conclusion that Im not as intelligent as I try to portray myself. Dont get me wrong Im not implying Im stupid, but I do feel the shoot to dress up my writing for classes and make it read more scholarly so that I seem smarter than I really am.
