Journal 4
My
previous journal was about cultural event and things that could change my life
of who I become. Time went by so fast that now is the last meeting in writing
class. After writing the third journal, my lecture assigned me to write a
narrative. It was a bit different from autobiography. So, this is what I
learned from my last assignment in writing class.
An autobiography is the story of a
person’s life and narrated by that person. It is always written in the first
person and it narrates the whole life story of the author, from start to the
present in the person’s life. It is an account of all the places, people and
events that made the writer’s life what it has been, as well as the lessons
learned and experience gained. The structure of autobiography is not
necessarily given in chronological order. It can be started with a striking
event and then go back to take things from their actual beginning.
As for a narrative, it is told as a
story of connected events, it can be non-fictional (actual) or fiction (imaginary)
and it is written in chronological order. The story can be told by a narrator
who may be a direct part of that experiences as a first-person narrator but
sometimes he or she may only observe the events as a third-person narrator and
gives his or her verdict.
After I understood the difference
between autobiography and narrative, I began to write a draft for my narrative.
I had to form some characters, a setting and a plot. Besides, I had to think
creatively about the conflict and how the story ended. From writing narrative,
I learned a lot and I could enrich my vocabularies too.
