Writing has always been one of my most disliked activities. I've even let my lack of enthusiasm towards writing dictate my future by choosing professions that seem light on writing. Unfortunately, I really can't completely escape writing and this is why I need to finally face my fears and take Rhe 309k. While I am no pro at writing, I am also no history buff. I gravitate towards science classes which contain minimal amounts of historical information and technical writing. When the time comes to write the inevitable course paper, I get a little bit queezy and do everything I can to avoid it. Essentially, it is now time to face my fear of writing, learn about a significant time period in history and hopefully figure all of these websites out. I would also like to gain confidence in my writing abilities and hopefully stop cringing at the site of a writing assignment. :)
