Essay On My Writing Experience

1044 Words5 Pages

For as long as I can remember I have loved to read. Though I was never in the advanced reading classes before fifth grade and was even in the lowest in kindergarten and first grade, it has always entertained and inspired me. Along with reading, I love writing. I didn’t really start to write very often until my eighth grade year. My freshman year my writing frequency boomed. I wrote around the clock, filling up notebook after notebook in between classes, down time in classes, and of course at home. I have continued to write and refine my work since then.
I enjoy pretty much all other forms of art as well, including music. I have taken private piano and vocal lessons and had the opportunity to participate in the high school choir three of my …show more content…

My sister and I had the opportunity to work out of state for six weeks at a summer camp for special needs people as counselors. Every week we got a new set of new campers and would interact, most often, one on one with them, helping with whatever they needed. This included being their friend, helping with art projects, keeping track of them, and sometimes changing depends showering them, and much more. We spent our entire week with them, including nights. This was a very changing experience for me. I learned a lot about myself, including strengths and weaknesses, and how to get along with coworkers that don’t have the same point of view as you. I am proud of this work experience because most people my age have not had anything like it. We were not paid much, but it was rewarding work and I plan on going back next summer.
Even though I have had the opportunity to work a lot, I am still worried about how I will pay for college. Right after my freshman year, my family moved to a different state to start farming. We pretty much started completely over, and that is not always the easiest thing to do. At the stage we are in right now, we do not have much money to go around and I already have another sister in college and a brother who will be starting within the next five years. This being said, my parents won’t be able to help me much with

In 2003, ENCODE was launched to build a complete “parts list” for Homo sapiens by identifying and pinpointing the location of every single stretch of the genome that does somethings. About 99% DNA that did not code for any protein, which called “junk DNA” had become a big challenge for scientists to be recognize instead of about 1% of genome that codes for protein. The establishment of ENCODE exposed previously hidden connections between diseases so that we may able to prevent some particular diseases in the future. ENCODE had also shown that a gene is not the simple stretch of DNA that makes a protein, as we learnt and we knew that not all the protein-coding genes in our cell are activated. Fortunately, after 5 years of hardworking by Encode

I realized early on that it became easier for my peers to organize their thoughts and ideas on paper. Often, I would be stuck on the first sentence of my assignment; each word I typed needed to be perfect and unalterable. For the longest time, I believed I wasn’t an adequate writer because it took me so much more effort to plan out my pieces of work. This wasn’t until I realized the power of making connections between ideas and including personal touch while brainstorming. Participating in informal writing allows your essay to be more engaging and memorable.

I clearly remember the first time I learned how to read and write. I was in pre-k and my teacher would always show us letters and their sounds. The whole class had to repeat the sounds that corresponded with the letters. Later, she began showing us pictures of objects with letters, but this time the letters we’re together and they each had a different meaning. Little by little I learned how to read small words and how to pronounce them.

I was once told by my eighth grade teacher Mrs. Herrera that, “writing makes the gears in your brain begin to rotate with one another”. I wished I knew how important that metaphor would be now in my life but I didn’t until I was an adult.

I can’t say I am the happiest girl taking this university 401 class. I’ll tell you why, I believed that I did well enough on the test to pass it.
