Writing Assignments example essay topic
Sometimes, I just hate writing all together. Throughout my four years of high school, I've never had anything higher than a 'C' on a paper. By the time I'm finished writing a paper, I look over it to make sure nothing's wrong and I say to myself, "here's another paper that " ll get a 'C'". The teachers must think so because I end up getting a 'C'. I just don't like writing (if I have criteria to follow).
As I'm writing this at the moment, I already dislike it because I just know that I'll end up with that dreaded 'C'. On the other hand, at least this assignment is easy and there aren't restrictive criteria that I have to follow. When I was little however, I loved to write. I have no clue on what happened that made me dislike writing, but it must have been pretty traumatizing if I forgot about it, as I tend to forget everything bad that has ever happened to me. I would love to go back into time, at the exact moment, when I started to hate writing.
If I were to find out, maybe I would actually start to like writing again, and not get a 'C' on my papers anymore. Reading on the other hand, is a different story. I remember my mom telling me that I would read cereal boxes for fun while eating breakfast when I was little. And I still do. I guess there is something fascinating about the ingredients or how much calories a box of Frosted Flakes has.
Nowadays, if you were to give me a newspaper or a magazine, such as Super Street, Import Tuner, Maxim, or even Time, I can read it from front to back and do it all over again. I have magazines lying around from two to three years ago that I'll pick up and read from time to time. Every time I read one of them, I pick out little details that I had missed or forgotten about. Newspapers and magazines contain current events and are usually about something that interests me.
However, I don't enjoy reading books much. I've always lived a fast paced life, so books just take too much time out of it. I've been told "just give five minutes of your time to read a book and before you know it, it " ll be finished". I've tried and believe me, it doesn't work. The next day, all is forgotten; I have other things that are more important. If I'm given a book to read as an assignment, I definitely won't enjoy it, but I'll still read it for the sake of doing the assignment.
I love it, I love it more. I can read forever as long as it's not a book. I know for a fact that you can find me reading a cereal box in the morning or reading the fine print off an entry for some sort of sweepstakes. Some might call it strange, but who knows, some of these "useless" readings could come in handy one day. Now if I could only do that with a book. Reading and writing are something that I've done all my life.
Can't live with it, can't live without it. Over the years, I've grown to dislike writing. I hope to like writing once again, but till then, I'm going to hate it unless it's free writing. Reading will always be something that I can do all the time. Just put something in front of me with words on it and I'll read it regardless of whether or not I like it.
