I notice in my writing that I often mention my friends, whether they were childhood friends or still my friends today. I also noticed that I like to write about music and sound. I think my writing helps to show people that music is a big part of my life. I never realized how much sounds can make me remember past times until i read my essays over again. I can tell that my writing has MOST DEFINITELY improved since my first essay. The first essay I wrote was so boring and dull compared to the recent essays that I have written. I honestly feel bad that I made people read that. It’s pretty embarassing. In my essays I wrote after my first one I added so much more detail and put so much more heart and soul into the things that I wrote. I didn’t believe Marlen when he told me during my first conference with him that my writing has improved alot, but even I can see now that it really has improved.
