...Writing Essay Throughout my life, writing has always been a skill necessary for me to excel in many of my classes. Whether it was for research papers, or short journal assignments, writing was always a key component in order to achieve the best grade possible for my classes. Ever since I stepped foot into Elementary school, my skills as a writer have been average or slightly above average at best. My writing style is basic and I usually follow somewhat of a similar formula for most of my papers. My weak points as a writer would be my creativity and vocabulary. I also wish to improve my ability to draw the reader in during my introduction paragraphs. I always seem to take ages to write my introduction paragraph for my papers, and this causes me to spend a lot of time on my essays. My strong points as a writer would be my structure and my ability to get my message across to the reader. I am confident in my writing in the sense that I can get the job done, but know that my writing could be heavily improved. There are three instances in my life that made me realize my skills as a writer. The first would be my English tutor, who guided me at the beginning of middle school. She laid down the formula and gave me the skills in order to ace all of my basic middle school papers. The second would be the realization that my writing was not good as I thought it was after my first couple of papers in High School, and finally the last instance, which was my college essay. My mother arranged...

... and writing assignments”, has changed my nursing career overview. Reading has helped me in exploring through various articles by getting vital information and ideas, which helped me, engage in critical thinking, as well as knowing about the author, and where was it published.

...The Musketeer in Me—Vikas One fundamental rule of reincarnation is that you do not know your past life. Well, it seems as though I broke that rule. In fact, I am absolutely certain that my past reincarnation was none other than d’Artagnan, the fourth musketeer. Knowing that is a gift. It makes the arduous process of describing the entirety of my personality in 500 words or less, possible. I can simply toss Alexandre Dumas’ biographical recount of my past life and say, “That’s me,” and those two words would mean everything. They make me that noble and heroic Gasconian that set out to Paris with nothing more than a yellow, hairless pony and a dream of grandeur. Alas, times have changed. The Musketeers, dueling, and horses, they have all become relics of the past. A new era and new circumstances bring a different life. Now, I am a first generation, 17-year-old American living in Jersey. My yellow, hairless horse is an old, squeaky Toyota Camry: its modern equivalent. My stunning silver-gilded rapier and armour have been replaced by a BIC pen and legal pad. However, all those changes are superficial. Inside, I still dream of the same grandeur. I dream, with every fiber of my body, that one day I will become a Newtonian giant holding a Nobel Prize. That one day I will support the innovation and ingenuity that fuels our evolving world. The only challenge is that there are millions of people that share the same dream as me, so what makes me different? Well, even if the...

...Reflective Essay I have written three essays, each wrapped around a specific topic or controversy that has triggered the thoughts of many. My first essay is written about one of the greatest forgotten controversies of the past; the Disappearance of the Star Tiger. This essay is a reflection of two main controversies that are in opposition to one another. Disappearance of the Star Tiger increased my understandings in how to research, understand, and apply my data. Because of its challenging nature, I encountered many obstacles while writing my essay; this includes writing it in proper APA format. The second one is mainly a reflective essay. Lies: From a Different Perspective speaks about how we perceive lies. I spoke about many other subjects...

...PHIL 1F90: Spring 2011. Second Essay Question ONE (to be answered as a straight-forward philosophical essay): Silenus, the satyr, is, or perhaps pretends to be, a determinist. After all, everything about the satyr, both his nature and nurture, come directly from his creator, Hench. And certainly, at the beginning of the story, Hench accepts full responsibility for the satyr’s actions. But he eventually changes his mind. How can the satyr, all of a sudden, become morally responsible for his actions? What exactly changed in Hench’s thinking? Michael Gorr is a compatibilist. Does his position make better sense than either the determinist or the libertarian? Explain. Question TWO (to be answered as a philosophical essay but with your auto-biography as illustation): “There is little wonder that Silenus, the satyr, is a determinist because everything about him, that is, both his nature as well as his nurture, were outside his control. He had absolutely no say in the matter. But, when I think about it, this is equally true of me as well. How do I, as a human being, differ from the satyr (except for the half-goat, half-man part)? After all, I am nothing more than the causal result of my nature in combination with my nurture and therefore, just like the satyr, I too am not responsible for who I am, what I do, or even what I think. If everything about me is caused and outside my control, then I cannot really be free or morally responsible. I could not have done...

...autobiography I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings. In the selections you are about to read, you will learn more about the experiences that made Maya Angelou the extraordinary individual she is today. In the biographical essay “Maya Angelou,” Joyce Hansen gives us a sense of the events that shaped Angelou’s life. Angelou’s poem “Life Doesn’t Frighten Me” presents a more subjective viewpoint. “Life Doesn’t Frighten Me” exists as a personal statement in which Angelou herself tells us how she’s managed to overcome the fears that otherwise might have beaten her down. Marguerite Johnson, who became known as Maya Angelou, was born on April 4, 1928, in St. Louis, Missouri. She and her brother, Bailey, were raised by their grandmother, the owner of a country store in Stamps, Arkansas. During her lifetime, Angelou struggled to overcome many difficult circumstances, a process she believes made her strong. The events of her life became known to millions through the 1970 publication of her autobiography I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings, which was nominated for a National Book Award and later used as the basis for a TV movie. Reading Standard 3.5 Identify the speaker, and recognize the difference between firstand third-person narration (for example, autobiography compared with biography). How did you become you? What are the circumstances that helped shape you? Who are the individuals who changed your life? This biographical essay provides a sketch of the experiences that formed Maya Angelou. Maya...

...Walker September 10, 2012 Mr. Gray Literacy Narrative Experiences Through Life It all started in the 6th grade when writing started to get the best of me. Now that I look back I don’t think I was ever taught how to write a real essay. What got me into writing more were my grandfather and my niece. They both inspire me in many different ways to enjoy writing. As I’ve gotten older I gradually progressed with my writing skills. I failed my first SOL test in the 6th grade. I enjoy the reading part but when its time to comprehend everything I just read, is were find the most trouble. Failing the SOL test determined if you were eligible to enter the next grade. I honestly feel as if no has taken time to lead me step by step through the stages of developing an essay. I wouldn’t say I hate writing essays I just continue to cease to write them even when I’m fail on the verge of failing a class. Failing that test took a big role on me because I could never understand how to write. It wasn’t one of those things that I just couldn’t grasp on to. My Grandfather was always a book junkie. He always told me that reading is fundamental and that it can get you further through life. He’s the one who inspired me to get into reading more often. My grandfather was in and out of jail since he was a kid, were he grew up in the most rural areas. It amazed me that he never finished with middle or high school but can still have an intellectual...

...I can think about where reading or writing or a situation involving the two have changed my life. However, one time that sticks out to me vividly is when my teacher analyzed my essay in front of the class. I always thought I was a great writer , but when I got papers back with the grades I didn’t want, I was confused. It felt like all my hard work was never good enough. At first I thought that getting your essay read and critiqued by everyone in the class was pointless and insignificant. After we had finished I realized that some benefits had came out of the class critique session. Back when I was in IB English class the teacher used to give us grammar warm ups everyday. One day she decided to change our...

...“The Waltz,” Mary Beth Ellis describes the life of a person who has to deal with the ongoing problems of living with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. In her freshman year of high school, Mary “became strongly convinced that if (she) did not touch a doorknob with both hands upon entering or exiting a room, the world would implode in dramatic and fully horrible fashion” (299). It seems this alone would be enough to explain to anyone the pains and horrors of having to live with OCD. This essay, first published in Twentysomething Essays by Twentysomething Writers in 2006, addresses an audience composed of people not suffering from OCD who want to learn about the struggle it brings. Through a use of language that is vivid and at some points pretty extreme, Ellis reveals many aspects and problems that arise with living with OCD. Throughout the piece, Ellis describes the pain of her disorder through the use of extreme diction explaining what would happen to her if she did something she deemed wrong later. For example, after posting a rant about how she hated liturgical dancing, she came to the conclusion that the KKK was coming after her. “I decided with a terrifying and completely unwarranted urgency less than a week after I’d typed it, it was not the brightest thing I’ve ever done … The Klan! They Hate Catholics, they kill Catholics, and where better to find Catholics than a public forum? They hated Catholics and they were going to kick my ass” (299). The language Ellis uses helps readers...

...the Wild side The author starts off the essay about when she grew up in Southern Ontario and how it use to be when she was younger. The descriptive language she use to put everything into great detail makes you feel like you are actually there. “The trees were scattered to provide shade for the cattle and the river provided a drinking source”. Then she changes the mood of the essay to a dramatic feeling like everything there has changed for the worse. “The river was not poisonously polluted but often chocked from the algae and water plants.” She says how she wouldn’t even think about going swimming in the river. It seems like the author misses the house she grew up in when she was little. The story is directed towards older adults and bringing back their childhood memories and how bad it is not to be a child anymore. The reason I could tell who it is directed to is because that’s the only people that could understand what she’s actually feeling. She sadly talks about how the fields were ruined, elm trees she loved fell down, and that the town also built anther highway ruining the scenery. It shows me that enjoy the time as a child you have now because you will never be able to return to it. Another thing that had her chocked up was the private property signs. She loved walking through the woods freely not worrying about getting yelled at or arrested. The essay ends talking about how to try to preserve the wildlife. The essay a walk on the wild side was a very good written...
