I need Rhetoric!

Rhetoric. I personally dislike writing because I don't think I am that great in it. I feel like my problem is that I can't arrange my thoughts together the right way so that it makes sense to others that are reading them. I fear writing papers because I can't put the words in my head on paper. I know that there is so much to say but my writing skills need help so that they can be easily understood.
The reason I chose this class is because I want to become a better writer. I really want to be able to arrange my words in a way that makes sense. Writing is not my strongest ability but reading is. I love reading and I really envy how some people can arrange their thoughts, especially when it comes to arguments.
I am planning to declare as a Public Relations major and I know that for that kind of major I need to be a strong writer and know how to arrange my words to where I can make a straight point. This is the reason that I chose this class. I want to become a better rhetoric student and not feel like I have underdeveloped skills in speech. I want to know that I will be able to respond quickly with the right words whenever I am asked a question or to defend my case. I know that I have a lot to say, the problem is that sometimes I cannot find the words to use and what I say is sometimes taken the wrong way.
I can't wait to continue with this class and learn more about the history of Vietnam because I feel that it's a subject that I never covered in any part of my education. I know the general idea of Vietnam but I want to know more because I think that it is a beautiful culture and I want to be more knowledgeable about it.
So far, I have learned from that last lectures that I will really enjoy this class because you allow us to think for ourselves and you actually seem to care about what we have to say. This class will really be worthwhile!
