Week 7...We Are Almost At The End...


As we move close toward the middle of the semester, I notices that my writing has been improving little by little. As look back at my first blog, My goals are to communicate though writing and understanding the writing skills that are demand at college level. 
From what could I tell, when I communicate with my cellular device, email, etc, I notices I been spelling out words and using complete sentences. I got out that bad habit spelling words like “u” and spelled it the proper way, “you.”  I am proud to say, Writing 101 has made me a better writer when it comes communicating through writing.
I am proud with Professor Spencer teaching this course. Blogging and peer-editing are still helping me becoming a better writer. I see myself making improvements in my other courses beside English 101 when it comes to writing. Blogging has help me see my writing from the first week of the semester till now. While looking at past blog post, I see improvements towards writing. Furthermore, peer-editing has been very helpful to me. Getting response from other students are a great way of becoming a better writer. Getting comments has help me to give more details and being concise toward my writing. I believe this is a great way to build confidence in my writing.

Analyzing an Advertisement



  1. Purpose-The purpose of this advertisements shows, how a young male teenager used this grooming product can lead him to attractive females.
  2. Audience-This advertisement target young male teenagers. This product shows effect of the smell can increase their chances to grab female’s attention.
  3. Genre-I would describe this genre to be persuading. Axe’s wants males to buy it in order to get female attention.
  4. Tone-This advertisement shows logic by giving definition of Axe’s products. I believe that advertisers want to show how the effect of their products works.

BLOG #4


When I compare my rough drafts and final draft, I notices that my first draft of my literary narrative I was off topic. Even though I wasn’t an excellent writer, I reread my literacy narrative and reorganization my thoughts to make my paper sound more fitting. It took me a few days to finish my second draft. For my second draft, I let one of my classmate to review my second draft. When I received my second draft, I notices I had a tons of grammar mistakes, and fragment sentences.
When revising my literary narrative, I notices fragment sentences and grammar I have trouble with. I know as a writer, I always forget the grammar rules. Grammar rules can be very tricky for me. As for fragment sentences, I sometimes forgot to put a subject or verb in sentences. As a college writer, I should be doing some grammar reviews. 
From what I learned, peer reviewing with an other classmate was great way to get a response on my literacy narrative. It helps me on what I need to work on as a college writer. In sum I hope to believe that final draft is great. From what I could tell that my final draft sounds better from the other drafts.
