WRITING JOURNAL 2

FREEWRITING

LAST YEAR, I CAN SAY WAS THE YEAR I WROTE THE MOST. IT WAS A CLASS IN WHICH THE MAIN OBJECTIVE WAS TO MAKE US EXCELLENT WRITERS. BY THE FINAL OF THE YEAR, WE MUST HAVE ABOUT 50 PIECES OF WRITING. I ONLY HAD 33. BUT I WAS VERY PROUD, BECAUSE IN ALL THE YEARS I M STUDYING ENGLISH I D NEVER HAD SUCH PRACTISE. I USED TO HAVE A LACK OF PRACTICE IN WRITING. AS A CONSEQUENCE, EVERY TIME I HAD TO TAKE AN EXAM I PASSED THE WRITTEN PART BUT WITH A LOW MARK. IT ALWAYS HAPPENS TO ME THAT IN A FIRST MOMENT I DONT KNOW HOW TO START MY ESSAY. AND I START TO THINK THAT THE TOPIC DOES NOT INSPIRE ME OR MAYBE I DONT KNOW MUCH ABOUT IT, ONLY A FEW IDEAS THAT ARE NOT SUFFICIENT TO ARGUMENT MY ESSAY. ONCE IDEAS START TO APPEAR, THE FLOW IS SO LARGE THAT I MAKE LONG (REALLY LONG) SENTENCES! SOMETIMES I FORGET TO COMPLETE ONE IDEA BECAUSE I START ANOTHER.

OR MAYBE, I TRY TO USE CONNECTORS SO AS TO MAKE MY WORK LOOK MORE FORMAL, BUT USUALLY, THE RESULT IS NOT AS I WISH.

BUT, WHICH IS THE USEFUL THING ABOUT ALL THIS? THAT AFTER ALL THIS PRACTISE I CAN RECOGNIZE THE POINTS IN WHICH I HAVE TO CONTINUE WORKING ON!
