a writing roller coaster

Well, this class has been a writing rollercoaster. It’s had its ups. It’s had its downs. The slow ups have been the research and understanding of the course goals. The exciting downs have been the flow of writing and the work that was produced. It’s at the end of the ride and its time to recollect what just happened.
The rides been real with all of you. I know some kids had a blast and some puked on the way down and failed. Hopefully you weren’t the latter. At the end of the day our portfolios, hours, weeks, and semesters work is judged by a teacher whose more focused on making sure goals are satisfied rather then the quality of the writing. If you fail portfolio it doesn’t mean you’re a bad writer. It just means you weren’t a sheep following the herd. I bet T.S. Elliot never took English 102 and he won the nobel prize in literature.
Good luck to everyone. If there’s one important skill that will help you throughout life’s endeavors, it’s your writing capabilities. Also, continue to grow as good individuals.
