When I was in fifth grade at Kingman Elementary School I had to write my first essay. I was only 10 years old and had never written anything to turn in for a grade. Throughout writing my essay my teacher, Mrs. Wright, helped me figure out how to write in a way my peers would understand and find interesting. Mrs. Wright was by far my favorite teacher, she was understanding and fun, always wearing something yellow. Since my whole class was learning to write at the same time, my two best-friends, Kathlynn and Cassie proof-read my paper. Cassie always wears her sandy blonde hair in a hair tie, her everyday outfit consisted of running shoes and athletic shorts. We were constantly laughing and looking at the cutest animals. Kathlynn was my other best-friend, we were attached at the hip, fourth through eighth grade I was at her house more than my own. Kathlynn was very mature for her age, always dressing up and loved to read.

Professor Maloney, Writing is something that I never thought I particularly excelled at. It has always been something that I have had to work hard at and never have I found pieces that I have written to be extraordinary.

I chose a big flat screen over books, so now reading and writing is as tedious as a lecture from history class. Through my experience as a…
