Fiction
I was very excited to write this paper because I could write about anything. I could use my imagination and express it on my paper. It was difficult to start because a lot of ideas were flowing in my head. But the start of the stories was blurry. I wanted it to be mysterious and fun to read. I wanted the reader to think that they know things about the narrator when they really don’t.
While writing this paper, I tried to be careful about to add unnecessary details. In class, I learn that every sentence has a purpose. When I learn about the rules of fiction it became harder to write my fiction piece. Every time I write I think about: Why is this important? Can my reader understand? Does this even make sense? I’m I rambling? At the end of the paper, I felt relieved and proud. I really hope you guys enjoy my imagination.

Poem
Before I wrote these poems I learned about the rules of writing a poem. After I learn the rules I got very confused because it was complicated. I didn’t want to write about love but whenever I think about poems, I categories then with romance. In all honesty, the music poem was not my best work. No matter how hard I tried to fix it I felt like it could have been better. I was trying to rhyme but at the end of the poem, it did not work.
I was very proud of my poem about women. It had a purpose and the message was very strong. I wrote this poem a long time ago but never shared it but because I was proud of this piece, I improved it and shared it for people’s feedback.

Memoir
I was very scared to write a memoir because I’ve never written a memoir before. In class, we went over the rules of a memoir and in my opinion, I feel like there is a lot of restrictions. I believe that a memoir is just a piece of your life experience and what you learned from it and how it affects your life now. The difference between a personal statement and a memoir is that memoir tells the reader how the event shapes their life.
One rule I did not like was that the writer has to write about how people(who is in the same situation) feels. What if the writer doesn’t know how that person felt in that situation. When I started the memoir I did not know when to start and how. But when I finish I was shocked to see that I was able to write a lot. When I was writing the memoir I was afraid that I was rambling but when my classmates gave me feedback the ask me to add more details.

Monologue
For my monologue, I was inspired by a show called Nikita. It was about a woman that was an agent in Division (a place for assassins) who wanted to bring down Division. The episode that inspired me was when one of the leaders admits to killing her own twin sister. My story had little similarities to this episode but I wanted to focus on mental health and family betrayal.
My paper is about a girl who killed her sister because her mind told her to. When I started writing a lot of ideas were in my head. I change my story 3 times and they were very complex. When I was done I was pleased with my work but the next day I remember that I had to act it out. I was scared and wanted to write another monologue but I tough it out and act it out. So far, people like my work.

Presentation

When I presented I felt nervous. I believe that I am very outspoken but I tend to trip on my sentences a lot. Throughout my presentation, I felt a connection with my classmates. They were answering the questions and laughing with me which made me very relaxed. Also after the presentation, I realize that I didn’t ask all my question, that was ok because the presentation felt like a conversation. I was very happy to inform my classmate about the writer’s background which gave them a better understanding of the readings. I enjoyed reading the memoir and I enjoyed presenting it.
