blog # 10

Today in class we discussed the progress of our etiquette essay; we had to come up with a unique question about our paper. My paper’s rough draft is complete and, I have not had my meeting with the tutor. Many of the other students wanted to or did completely change their papers after their session. Comparing blog # 3 email to the etiquette essay, I would say there is a complete difference in the writing process. When I wrote my blog # 3 I really didn’t know what I was doing as far as how to start up my paper. I didn’t put much thought into it, because of not know the correct process. For example when I would prepare to write my paper I would stare at the paper for about an hour, and still have nothing written down. Now after hearing my classmates that have gone to their tutoring session I’ve learned numerous suggestions on how to start a paper. I could start by free writing, whatever comes to mind roughly three paragraphs. Then I could go over it and have an idea of where to start at. The guide lines given in class also helped as well, giving a list of word’s not to use often unless they’re really meant. And now that I think about it on our blog assignment we weren’t given any guide lines to follow. Which lead to very sloppy writing and the over use of word’s such as and, or they and you. I also believe after my meeting with the tutor I will be able to understand on how to start up a proper paper without much hesitation, not that I still won’t have problems but with the proper note’s taking my writing process would become easier than it was when we did our blog #3 assignments .
