Journal 2
The last time I wrote my
first journal was about earlier activities in writing class. I wrote a story
called “Idiom as A Joke” and I got a comment from my lecture that I forgot to
hit “the space button”. Clearly, it was a simple mistake, yet, made a significant
point in writing. Another mistake that I learned is that we cannot use
contraction in writing. For example, if you write “it’s”, this word can be read
as “it is” or “it has” and that will produce a different meaning. That is why
we cannot write like that because sometimes it can make the readers confuse by
its meaning.
The next task on the fourth week, my lecture ordered us to make an
autobiography which included about myself, people around me and important event
in my life. Actually, the first part was not a difficult one because I just
wrote all about myself such as where I came from, family members, my education
histories, then my appearance and my personalities. Although, I had a slight
difficulty when I wrote about my physical appearance. Lack of vocabularies was
the main problem. I completed the task and I submitted it. Turned out my
writing was getting better. Less mistakes and just needed to be elaborated a
little.
After I wrote about myself, I wrote about the people around me. They are
my family, my boyfriend and my best friends. I described them one by one, about
their personalities and how I met them. My lecture said that my story flowed
really well and I started to show my writing style. However, I still have minor
mistakes in grammar and spacing as well as punctuation.
The last part of the autobiography was about the important event in my
life. At first, I had a difficulty in writing the opening words. It took me
some time to write down the proper words. Afterwards, I began to write about my
life improvement, how it began, the problems I had, the turning point of my
life and finally what life has taught me some lessons.
There are some lessons that I
learn from my mistakes in writing so far. First, always give a space or a gap
between words. Second, try to put a proper conjunction when you write a new
sentence. Third, no contraction in writing. However, what I still need to learn
is vocabularies. Due to the midterm writing test, I prepare myself with reading
some books and dictionary to enrich my vocabularies.
