Final Blog

I feel like I have improved in many aspects of my writing since the beginning of the semester.  I feel like I do a better job with organizing my ideas.  I do not have as much trouble with writer's block this semester, because I was taught many brainstorming tricks that have helped me a lot.  The brainstorming strategies have been the most helpful because once I have the idea; I do not have trouble finding things to go along with it.  The paper that was the easiest to complete was the paper about "The Little Mermaid" because I was writing the paper about a topic I thoroughly enjoyed.  I think it was the easiest because it was the most fun.  Both the gists and the vocab were the most beneficial lessons for me.  The gists because it helped me apply what I have learned and read so I was actually absorbing the information.  The vocabulary lessons were beneficial as well because now there are a lot of fun new words I can use in conversation if I feel like sounding smart.  I absolutely feel like I am more prepared with my college-level papers.
