A lot of people think that English classes are a waste of time, I am not one of those people. English was always a class I did well in. Taking this class will help me in my future endeavors. I want to own a restaurant one day, this class will be helpful in writing descriptions for each menu item. The description on a menu is very important, it is the first thing a customer sees when it comes to ordering. This friend of mine told me about a website that pays you for writing for outside companies. I haven't taken on many jobs on there that pay more because I feel my writing isn't up to par. With this class I will have the confidence to take on more jobs, and be able to quit my current job, so I can work from home. Right now I'm working in a job with crazy hours and is a very stressful environment. I could be in control of my hours and environment if I had better writing skills. As much as I find this class useful, I also have my fears and hesitation. I have been out of school for eight years, and fear there's a lot I have forgotten. I know writing at college level is much different from when I was in tenth grade. Sometimes I fear I'm too far behind will struggle to catch up. I have been known to be harsh on myself for my writing. I worry that could be my downfall in this class. I don't want to get in my own way to receive a good grade. Even though I am a little hesitant about this class I know it will be very beneficial to my future. I know if I apply myself and not be so critical of my work I will be just fine. This class will help me near and far in my future. I am looking forward to experiencing this semester.
