I do not write because I am not a good writer. I like to keep my thoughts short, simple, and to the point. When I express my feelings it usually only takes a couple of sentences for me to reveal my thoughts. If there’s a requirement, for instance, I’m given an assignment that must have 700 words; I would wreck my brain trying to meet the standards. It’s just too much pressure for me. Even now, this assignment requires 300 words and I’m having so much trouble trying to get there. If it was up to me, the standards would be two sentences. I have a very hard time elaborating on subjects especially if it’s a subject that I’m not interested in. It causes me to repeat myself in more ways than one. Playing around with words is also a pet peeve of mine. It gives me a headache and a serious case of writers block. I’ve always got good grades in my past English classes; however, it was not at all easy. In the process of doing a major paper, I always feel as if I’m under stress. The challenge only makes me dislike writing even more. When I was younger, writing was one of my most favorite hobbies. I would write about any and everything. If I was bored, I would write. If I was happy, I would write. If I was angry, I would write. But as the years go on and the expectations of my writing increased, I write less and less every year.
