Blog 8: Final Reflection

At the beginning of the semester I was not looking forward to taking this class.  Primarily, because I was not strong at writing and public speaking.  As the semester went on I think I became a strong writer and I became more comfortable with public speaking.  The writing assignments for this class were somewhat different than any other writing classes I had taken.  I enjoyed the blogs because they weren't too difficult and they helped me to slowly work up to the larger assignments we had later in the semester.  I found the story board paper to be the most difficult assignment we had all semester because it was hard for me to plan out a documentary with little video footage.  It was also very hard to meet word requirement for that assignment and I found it a little unreasonable.  Surprisingly creating the documentary was a lot easier than I expected it to be and I also really enjoyed it over all of our other papers and presentations in the class.  This class helped me to realize that I am not as poor of a writer as I originally thought and that with time and effort comes success in the writing world.
