Personal Narrative: My Essay

Writing, is one of the most fearful and over thought piece of work. I personally, grew up struggling in writing and I had to find out how to write a “perfect” essay as I was looking forward to pursing a higher education. Throughout middle school and high school, I developed learning habits that made me write the way I write. Now writing for me is not as easy as some people think but at the same time it is not as hard as some people think if that makes sense.
Throughout schooling up to now I have done many assignments and essays some long and some short but now that I think about it I haven’t had any real hard lengthy essays. Maybe at that moment in writing that essay or summary I thought of it being difficult but looking back I haven’t really been faced with a hard essay to the point I wasn’t able to write it. Taking state test was a major milestone throughout my middle school and high school life, well not so much in high school because dealing with the fact I had passed all five OGT’s my

first time I didn’t have to retake those test every year it was one time and done, but in middle school we had to take those test every single year no matter if you passed or failed that test.
Graduating high school one year early was a huge accomplishment for me, and believe me it was a lot of work to do four years of high school in only three years.

While in the process in moving up in life and moving closer and closer to becoming a self-reliant person I had to write essays to get a job and even for scholarships. When writing an essay for a job it was basically like a resume and on that resume was all of your attributes and personal skills and in that resume you wanted to include every piece of information relevant to the job and that I believe could not have been done if you did not have good writing and thinking skills. Now while both writing a resume and writing an essay for a scholarship are both in reality to get money they are two different writing formats. Scholarships is what you want to write your best on, you want to receive that scholarship to receive money for school and without the help of a teacher or tutor that scholarship essay would not be

perfect.
With all of this background on writing I believe that as young adults grow into adults their writing should somewhat progress with them because as you get older you will be faced with many obstacles in life that are and will require some adjusting in your writing skills because as you get older more is expected out of you a first grader would not be expected to write a 5 page essay or even a seventh grader but a college student will be expected of that because they have gone through all the training in writing to help them become a better writing. Expectations are higher for those who in a higher level education.
