Editing
So I am working on our end of the year assignment for this class, and it is much more difficult and emotional that i really thought it would be. no, not the kind of emotional that deals with crying, well perhaps just a little lol, but it is very difficult to actually reflect and write about yourself don't you think? it is also very cool though, this experience of actually thinking about yourself in depth, and being able to reflect both on paper and through experiences this reality that we live through education.

I completely agree! Having also been working on my thesis I find it hard to let go and remember that I can be "myself" in writing this essay! I am having a hard time showing "myself" in this paper but it is finally coming along! Good luck :)
ReplyDeleteI also agree with you. I find myself loving the writing I am doing but becoming so totally immersed in it that I can't pull myself away. I am definitely happy with what is being created, I only hope that I continue this insight into myself beyond the requirements of this class.
ReplyDeleteDoes anyone else struggle with getting too much into the academic part so you revise and then get too much into the personal part so you revise and the cycle starts all over again? I think I've rewritten the beginning about 15 times and still haven't managed to get much further :(
ReplyDeleteI agree. I have a challenging time when I see so many "I's" in my writing. It drives me crazy.
