writing for me

Writing for me, and I imagine it is the same for others, has been a process through out life. Each year they continually get better at what they are trying to get across. Every year in school a teacher will have a different take on writing, and will be able to give advice in their own way. I believe this is how most people become great writers, because they are receiving advise from so many different people.
Writing is a process that I have to think about if it is for an assignment or for another person. For me I have to sit and think if my topic is good enough, do I have enough information to back my topic up, can people understand what I am writing, and will it make an impact on others or did I just waste my time writing?
I am the person that cannot spell at all, so when I write it has to be on a computer so I can use spell checker. I do not want my reader to not understand what I am trying to say because they either cannot understand what I am trying to say or they become too distracted by all my incorrect spelling.

NO RESPECT

Generation Y has been reported to have their ups and downs in many different aspects but have no respect is a major issue among this generation that needs to be addressed. If one were to look back to older generations one would find more respect toward piers and defiantly more respect toward their elders. I believe this is not the case with Generation Y.

Parents do not discipline their children everything is a compromise or in some cases children run the household not the parents. When older generations were growing up the parents usually said, “This is how it’s going to be.” Now a days the parents are begging their children to behave. Are parents afraid to punish their children? Are they afraid to spank their children because they might think that is abuse? Lets take a step back and see how are grandparents were raised discipline wise. Were they punished and made to work hard? Yes, they were. Do they have respect towards others? Generally for their generation, they do.

There needs to be a change for the generation of the children of generation Y. There needs to be discipline in those lives. Think about the teachers in elementary through high school. There has been a lack of desire to teach these students and one of these reasons is because of a lack of respect the teachers are receiving. The teacher can not be the only discipline a child receives. The change needs to take place in the home, starting with the parents disciplining their children and teaching them to respects others around them.

writing/drawing

Sometimes writing what I may be feeling is very hard for me. I like to draw instead, my drawings may or may not have anything to do with what I would be feeling at that moment but it relaxes me in some odd way. I love to draw nature, as I have stated before I love to look at nature, it amazes me. Later when I have drawn my picture or series of chicken scratch I feel like a burden has been lifted off my shoulder. I then find myself able to write those complicated feelings I was not able to describe earlier.
Although drawing may be a prewriting in a way I am not that good at it. I am a list person for a paper so if I have to write a paper that is about an experience I have had in the past I will draw it in my head. This way I am able to visualize what I remember and my hand starts making notes like I had never had a problem in the first place. I like to do this because then I am able to think back on my past. What I did right or wrong. How I can fix or repeat those actions. All of the sudden sometimes I find my self making lists on how to improve myself, when it all started with a simple homework assignment for a class. This is a type of writing I love to do. I feel relieved at the end of everything.
