I have learned much while taking this class. I am no where close to being Edgar Allen Poe, but Learning the different structures of a story is interesting.

  The paper I enjoyed the most was about my son being born. Since it was a personal experience, I did not have to put much thought into it. I let my heart speak, and I wrote it down. most writing from the heart are true feelings that cannot be made up. "They took Mikey to start cleaning him off, weigh him, measure him, and the rest of the normal things done to a new born. I was standing in the middle of the room looking at my son and then looking at my wife as they were working on her. At that exact moment in my I life, I had no idea whose side I should be next to, my wife or my son. I had extreme joy looking at my son, and extreme pain looking at my wife, as I was again powerless to help her." This by far, in my opinion, would describe the roller coaster of emotions I had that day, pure utter unknown of what to do. Luckily, everything turned out OK.

   The paper I least enjoyed writing was about illiegal immergration. i want to see everyone have the American way of life, but it shopuld be done legally. I finally decided, that in life you can only help so many, one person cannot save the world, it is a group effort over a long period of time. The best way to do this is to teach the public that simply putting up a fence will not cure the problem. There must be more done besides putting up the fence and be ignorant of the situation.

  I learned that there is more knowledge out there for me to learn about writing. No one is an expert, but I can learn much from others. While doing peer reviews, I learned that my views and and opions on how something should be written is not the same as others. Besides giving my recommendations, it helped me recogonize what I could be doing with my writtings and how to improve them.
