Dear Doctor letters on first essay; Oct. 2, 2013

By college, students say they want more VOCABULARY and not being REDUNDANT and having a CLEAR THESIS and have a clear POINT and ANALYZE THINGS FURTHER

·         I need to work on expanding my vocabulary to a more intellectual diversity of words as opposed to using same ones many times.

·         By the time I start college I want to expand my vocabulary and be able to use ‘fancy’ words.

·         By college I will have a plethora of more vocabulary.

MOST DIFFICULT

·         I was a little rusty after the summer.

·         Brainstorming

·         Knowing what I wanted to say

·         I get very distracted and it takes me a long time

·         Structuring my ideas in a way captivates the reader

·         Proofreading is the most difficult task

·         Finding synonyms for words because I did not want to be redundant

·         Coming up with a TITLE!

PROCESS             

·         I read through it a couple of times and I began to notice a lot of small possible symbols and even motifs. The more I read each poem the more interesting it became.

·         Reading the two poems constantly and getting the gist of each. Then I analyzed the language or each which led me to my main idea.

·         I prefer writing on paper because I seem to get more connected with my work instead of on an iPad or computer. (except I do with my brain had autocorrect at times).

·         The second run through I physically write on the side what I want to add or change.
