Clearly, I like reading and writing, for I chose to be in Honors English. I enjoy creative writing more than essay-type writings because I really like to be creative with things I do. Writing essays actually really bore me, but I do get them done and I think I put a good amount of effort into them. Reading is easier to me, I do not put in the effort because I have to, but because I actually do like reading. I always get my assignments in on time, (I forgot about this one until now though, good thing we have until midnight).
I will enlighten this online blog world by posting hopefully interesting comments, ones that people will maybe want to take more than a glance at. I can also recall the events from a book very well, and will be able to type about them online with other classmates. I do think that the meaning of an English class is to help students better understand what the text they are reading truly means, and to then be able to relate your thoughts about it to others through writing or speaking.
English is a four-year requirment because, to me, we need to understand certain things better and better as we mature. Proper grammar is important to learn, communication with others in small and/or large groups, and better understanding the literary work you are reading. Excelling in English will definitely give me better speaking skills, which is an aspect of mine that could use some improvement. I think it will also allow me to read a vast number of advanced novels and get more out of them than just the basic story.
