Goal and concerns
I'm SO excited for this class!! I'm an english girl through and through so this should be right up my alley! I love reading-which I'm sure is pretty obvious- so I'm really excited about the different books we're going to read! I'm very concerned however, about the writing part. I honestly can't stand writing. It drives me up a wall! So needless to say all the papers seem a little daunting to me. Even though I don't really like writing I'm looking forward to developing a good technique and vocabulary. Another thing I'm rather concerned about is the discussion aspect. I'm pretty shy - shocker huh?- so talking in class and expressing how I feel is probably going to be an even bigger challenge than the writing!! Overall I'm really crazy excited about all the opportunities this class is going to create for me!!

Hopefully the more you practice writing and feel confident with it, the more you will enjoy it. It's like anything else: once you get good at it, you tend to like it more! And definitely work on talking in class. I know you have a lot of "talkers" in class, but it will be really important to have people actually talk about what matters in class... and I am sure you will be one of those!
