Wow. Maybe I don't have as much self-confidence in my work as I should. I was honestly expecting a high C, or maybe a low B if I was feeling lucky. Writing is not my specialty, or at least I thought. Maybe I am a decent writer, but I just didn't realize it. I think maybe why I did make as high as I did was because I thoroughly enjoyed this assignment. I got to write a paper about a place I absolutely love going to.
Seeing my mistakes, which some were pretty careless, make me want to slap myself, and pretty hard at that. I had 1 comma splice. Going back and looking at the error, I probably would have caught it if I had spent more time looking over it.
My main problem is writing passively. In this paper it's worse, because since I have been to Joe's so many times, I didn't catch myself referring back to past events, when I should have been focusing on what I was witnessing that night.
Semi-colons are what I don't like to mess with. I thought that I would push myself and try to use one, but it didn't work out. Hopefully, I will finally learn about them in the handbook.
