Task my brain
When I first time got this homework, I thought it was so easy. I am really good at writing essay about mental actions. When I first time finished this essay I feel confident. But when I heard a about stories and analysis, I found a big problem of my essay. Instead of writing too much stories, I put too much analysis in the essay. Classmates read their essays in the class, then they start to count sentences for stories and sentences for analysis. My result was 10 and 50. My essay was totally different with theirs. With nearly 40 differences of stories, I found that I should add a lot of stories in my significant moment essay. What I thought about the significant moment essay was using a number of description of mental action to describe a scene. Through my mental action, readers can figure out what the environment was. Ms Guarino asked us to write 500 words for the essay. That was a lot of work I thought. It was very hard to use 500 words to write about a significant moment with half stories and half analysis. I am used to write analysis in essay because it can show my true feeling to affect the readers. It was a useful way to get higher grade. It seems like this way has a problem. Without describing the stories, it can not arouse people’s sympathies. I really hate to have the same thing with others, writing paper, playing games or having vision angle. So when I found I was different with all my classmates I was a little bit happy even it was wrong. When I tried to fix it I found another problem. It is really to add stories into an significant essay. When I tried to add some more stories about my Chinese and American life, I found that my theme was away from my topic depression, fear and expectation. I focused on depression, fear and expectation for my whole essay and the significant moment was I stayed in the airport and waited for the plane. What I thought should be my main part of the essay. I thought analysis is always good for anywhere but I am wrong. Sometimes too much analysis makes the essay became boring. To writing an interesting essay, I must add some more fun stories although my topic was depressed. I wrote about what my grandparents reacted when I left my home which is part of my flashing back. Then I wrote about some predictions of the future, which have happened now. It became most of my stories in my essay. I think it is fun to read about it. How a good significant moment attracts people is it has a point with can catch readers sympathies. If people have the same thoughts with me and they read the essay, they may fill the same ways with me. But I wrote too much analysis in my essay, so it makes it harder to catch people’s sympathy. I still need to work on adding more stories in my essay.
