Journal 1

I do not consider myself a writer because I simply do not write enough. Although I text and communicate with friends through Facebook, I do not get enough practice writing what would be considered legitimate material. I feel over the years I have written specifically for school and for my grades. Now that I have begun college I feel like I will be writing for myself which motivates me to write better every time I put a pen to paper (or my fingers to the keyboard). I hope my rhetorical skills progress consistently throughout the course so I become a better writer than I was when I first stepped into class.
