grammatically correct, the subject and
verb must both be singular or plural. In
other words, the subject and verb must
agree with one another in their tense. If
the subject is in plural form, the verb
should also be in plur al form (and vice
versa).
, 2. Reflection on the process
Through this assignment, I learned about citations. I did not know this until one of the
lectures but it is part of MLA format to cite paraphrases, statements without quotation
marks and information you gain from that particular source. I also realized that I
need to be more concise with my writing. I tend to be vague or unclear which makes
the assignment seem weaker and not as impactful. This is very difficult for me to get
out of because I tend to think that I put everything that is in my head on paper. I think
that with a lot of writers, we tend to think essays or assignments are clear when we
reread them because it is based on information that we know ourselves. In this way,
I need to constantly ask myself questions on what my focus is for the assignment
and making sure that each sentence is clear/ has substance to it.On the plus side, I
think that I was able to get my point across about CULTURE as well as
MUSCULINITY arguing this issue before writing my final essay. I was able to get
some clarity for what I wanted to write about and figure out the main points to my
essay in advance. I realized that being biased could be very easy so I needed to be
more careful of that as I wrote my last paper. Overall, I got a lot out of doing this
critical response. or me, writing is frustrating. Many times I have trouble writing about
anything. The main reason why I have so much trouble when writing, is because I
don't concentrate on my work enough. Even when I try my hardest to concentrate, my
mind seems to wonder around to a different direction towards another thought. After
that, I forget all about my work and just think about various things such as people,
places, and different times I've had in the past. For example, even while I'm writing this
small paragraph, my mind keeps on slipping into other thoughts. I dont know if this
happens to lots of people, but this is one problem that I have trouble the most in.
Maybe this is why I'm a slow writer and don't like to write. When I write, I'm usually in
my house sitting right where my computer is. One thing about me is that I hate writing
anything with a pen and a paper.
