Hits and Misses

       We have written a few essays this year for English, all of which had their challenges and their accomplishments. My favorite paper this year was the research paper. This was a very stressful paper due to all of the other projects at the same time, but it was the easiest. It required a lot of research and preparation, but the teachers helped us a lot and guided us through the process. This made putting the paper together very simple.
       The hardest paper for me though was the personal narrative. It was so hard for me to pick a certain event that was short. I could not decide on a memory that I remembered very well and thought that I could write about. When I finally decided on a memory to write about, my problem was making it very detailed. I could not make it detailed enough as to make it feel like the reader was there experiencing it for themselves. I felt like I could have done a better job on this paper.

  1. I agree with you that the research paper was the easiest paper we have done this year. I thought the preparation before the paper was much more challenging, but it made writing the paper much easier.

  2. I had different feelings about what was the hardest and easiest piece of writing this year. I thought that the research paper was the hardest for me and the personal narrative was the easiest.
