2. My relationship with writing is slightly better then my relationship with reading, but it is still not all there. I tend to write on a day to day basis, whether it is texting, snapping, posting something on social media, completing a writing assignment, or simply just writing down something on a piece of paper. During the fall quarter, I did a lot of reading and writing, and it was not fun. It was back to back reading and writing, for all of my 12 units, and I just felt like it was way too overwhelming. I have never really had any confidence in my writing skills, but I usually tend to get decent scores and relatively good feedback.

2. Writing is on the negative side for me. Writing on paper is further down the line than writing digitally. It takes time for me to read and understand prompts before I write and oftenly erase and rewrite my thoughts, leaving large eraser marks on my papers. Writing also takes up more time than reading so I feel as if I am “losing” time when comparing the two. Another big reason for my dislike towards writing is because it requires more “effort” and thought put into it. I have to use my brain and gather my thoughts then physically bring it out onto paper. I do not write in my spare time and never have the motivation to, even a free write makes me sigh.

2.I can write, but I don’t like to write too much. For the whole time I write, there are too much restrict and limitation for me. Like you must use some designated format of front and paragraphs. The school teacher taught a lot methods about writing. However, if I didn’t fit the standard, I will lose point from the work. Not only on the essay for daily works, but also for the TOEFL test and all the GAC test when I at high school. I used to write some small scientific stories. But for the most part I write essays. I use these tools to find information: statista.com for some statist information, it concludes many data I need when I at high school. And Grammarly to check the gramma (not too useful). 

I think there should be more Humanistic care in our work and makes more thinking, and I hope I can do it.

2. I can say that my relationship with writing right now is better than where it was throughout school but I’m still not completely confident with it. I actually find writing enjoyable at times but I’m not quite sure what triggers it, I assume I have to be in the right mindset when writing. I’d say I have a neutral relationship with writing. Depending on how writing is defined, I find myself writing quite a lot on the daily, whether it be in the form of text or emails. I would never see myself doing traditional or creative writing unless it was for an assignment for school. When writing something formal, I usually have to refer to another piece of writing or some of my old work for me to construct something I’m pleased with.

2. My relationship with writing is also pretty neutral, but leaning towards the negative side. Throughout my highschool English classes I have had the freedom to write about anything I wanted to, exploring writing techniques like vivid imagery or argumentative. This allowed me to not have to worry about the constraints of standard writing, and I could focus more on just getting my idea or subject across to my audience. My negative experiences with writing have come from essays about books I wasn’t really interested in, or didn’t understand well. Also, I am not good at formal writing and tend to struggle while writing comparative essays or finding an abstract idea within a plot. Sometimes I have a hard time even coming up with a thesis to argue against an idea. I have a much easier time with free writing, especially about topics that resonate well with me, like imagery.
