Wow. I really do feel that my writing has been affected by this class. I feel that I've kind of learned to think outside the box. When I say that I mean it literally. I feel like I've learned more than just five paragraph format, the general-to-specific specific-to-general type of thing. I feel like now, after seeing that that is not the only type of writing out there, that I can have more creativity show through in my writing. I actually really appreciate it because it seems like before, all of my papers were so bland and all the same. Now, I feel like I can spice them up with the techniques we learned.
Another thing that I learned and liked was he fact that your thesis doesn't have to be your last sentence. I know how stupid that sounds, but honestly, I never knew that. It kind of gives your paper a new spin. Honestly.
Yet another technique I will not forget is the MLA documentation. I know I still have a problem with it sometimes, but honestly, I've never felt more comfortable with it than I do now. I'm also really happy that we can't sell the SFWriter back because I totally would, and we can't so I know I'm gonna have it for a long time lol. All in all though, I think this class, with the topics we wrote about, helped me to become a more comfortable writer. After all, it's college now and it's intimidating and I think that going into further English classes down the line, that I will FINALLY feel comfortable in putting my own twist on things.
