Memoir- I enjoyed this writing assignment. It was the first time I did a writing assignment like this. As the first paper of the school year, I feel as if I did pretty good on it. I wrote this piece about my grandmother's battle with breast cancer and how it affected me. This was the first time I wrote about this battle.

Public Letter- I also enjoyed this writing assignment. Writing the public letter was like nothing I've ever done before. I chose to write about littering, because it is one of my biggest pet peeves. For this assignment i did some in depth research on statistics of littering. I love animals too so I included them in this paper too. Genre Paper- I didn't find this assignment appealing. It was hard, let alone, trying to choose a genre to write about. I chose to write a parody. It was difficult to write this genre. I have seen so many parodies, but seeing and writing are two totally different things. I wrote a parody over the Indianapolis Colt's horrible season this year. I thought that it was an alright piece, especially for a first time writing. This was a poor grade for me though. I guess I will take it as constructional criticism and learn from it. Annotated Bibliography- One thing I really learned in Eng. 103 was how to cite. Doc. Hartman taught us a few different types of cites and how to integrate them. Annotated bibliographies stuck out to me the most. The way they are set up and the additional paragraph after seemed very helpful. I also noticed in college, when a professor asks you to cite somethin,g they usually look for annotated bibliographies. I'm glad i got this opportunity to learn how to cite correctly.

Multigenre- [] I had a love/hate relationship with this assignment. I liked that i got to make a website and be creative. It was hard for me to choose a topic. I ened up writing about one of my favorite mucis artists, Bob Marley. After further research, it was hard to write multiple genres about him. I did have fun creating the website, though. If I had to do this assignment again, I would rather do it about a recreational sport, such as golf, or a more broad topic. This assignment was a good way to end the semester.
