The last essay I wrote was adequate but not the really good essay it could've been.I placed my points and arguments well and clearly. I need to improve upon mainly grammar and proving the points I make. With grammar I need to work on not writing in an awkward way as well as using more conjunctions. I as well need to prove better so backup my points with more information then connect them well. I will make sure to improve on this next essay by using many more conjunctions when needed then using more evidence than I did.

Writing We have been in school for about 2 months or so now and I have already learned much more about my writing ability. I have improved my vocabulary and flow of writing. However I need to give my writing more life and make it more interesting. Recently my ERWC class had an assignment where we had to write a college essay or a job application essay and we wrote 3 versions by the end of it. This showed me that a piece of writing that I thought was fine could be improved 2fold. Yes it may be tedious to revise your writing 3 times or more but it is worth it. Life after high school I am worried about next year, yet I am way less worried than I was. I am more knowledgeable and confident than I was, I feel that I know my plan better now than I did as well. I learned a lot about financial aid, what colleges suit me, and if college is worth it or not(which it is). My next years plans have changed slightly, I plan on going to SRJC then transferring to Boise state. I am feeling way more secure about my future plans now than I ever was.
I wrote a page about how I failed at something and I wrote three different drafts where obviously the first one was the unrefined version. The second one was where I revised spelling and smaller grammar errors to make the essay flow or just sound better. Lastly the third revision is where I added things to make my essay descriptive then took out unnecessary texts.
For my first blog I want to address what my goals are for this year. This year I plan to increase my reading skill by just reading more often because I don't read as much as I should. More specifically I want to read and reflect back on it so I can actually understand and remember what I read. Another goal I really need to work on is procrastination and how I need to stop doing it. I procrastinate bad and I plan to set a goal for this year stating that I have to turn in all my assignments on time or at the very latest a day late. These are my goals for this year.
