my growth in writing
This year, I experience a lot of different types of writing from shorts stories, to plays, to poems and all these pieces of writings helped me to discover new ways to become a better writer. As I looked through all the past writings that I did this year, I was able to reflect on how much I had improved from my use of higher vocabulary to the skills I learned from Bedford. Making this website really helped me to realize to have more confidence in my writing, giving me a new perspective on being a writer. English had always been a subject that I had not fancied but after this year, and through the improvements I have seen in myself, English has placed 2nd as my favorite subject mostly because I can put all my thoughts and feelings into writing. Literature is truly an escape from the real world giving one a place to rest and express their feelings in all kinds of ways.
I remember coming into PAHS with little knowledge of the wonders of literature. I didn't like poems, plays, short stories, and all these boring things until I had stepped into Mrs. Boyd's class and when she opened up my mind to look into these works with enthusiasm and different perspectives, I was able to enjoy English and writing most of the year. Writing is definitely a weakness for me academically but as I see myself growing, I have less worries on becoming a better writer. Now that the year is over, I feel that I have learned so much over the past several months and I plan to use all I have learned in the next three years of high school.
To me, writing and literature is something people miscontrue, something that is inexplicable. Writing is just something that is part of people that cannot be let go and will bring us fulfillment. Literature is life.
