Monday, December 11, 2006. I wrote this personal essay on the night when I met my boyfriend and realized a friend of mine was nothing more than a selfish human being. In this essay, I expressed some emotions about this night and I also realized I was better off without her. The stage of writing I was in I was still learning how to express emotions without over doing it. I knew that the assignment wanted a personal experience and that is what exactly the class and Dr. Chandler were going to receive.

I observed that the blogs have not really taken off yet in terms of you using them for your own purposes to develop writing and to connect to each other, and help each other out with the assignments. So we decided to continue with this experiment, and I said I would take this discussion into consideration as I grade. So what do you think? Drafting your Personal Essay.

It felt like I was purging myself of. I felt like I was coming clean from a past that was soiled with mistakes. It was cathartic and even if is never published; it felt very. Good to write and to get off my shoulders.
