Journal 12

I think the biggest change that i have developed throughout this semester that has affected my writing is my word choice. When i was in high school, i always tried to use words that would help me sound smarter. I know that i say dumb stuff sometimes but i always tried to make up for that in my writing. I now know that it is much easier to sound smart if you have a good argument and things to back up your claims. I would have to say that my favorite assignment throughout this semester was paper 3. I really had a lot of fun developing my anti-ad and i think i did a really good job at it. I like how all of our assignments were based on the media. It really made me think about how much the media really does try and target a certain audience. I feel like this is definately one of the most important things that i learned this semester. I am definitely going to use this tool in all of my writing in the future.
