After today in Kronzer's class, i have found that i am surreptitiously scrutinizing my work all the time. I find myself going back to my sentences and asking myself if i have said something wrong, or could do something differently. Perhaps it is because i was gone the day of the most important power point with all of the important words that we need to know and every time that i propose an outline it is somehow wrong (making myself feel stupid, hence constant revision). BUT ... Could this not mean that i am looking for a greater meaning, as well?
After class today in TOK i find that the importance of my sentences is greater, and i do not type as quickly as i once did because of my constant revision.
I feel it is less callous, and more genuine.
What do you feel about your own writing abilities?
I have a hard time writing rough drafts and timed assignments because I seek perfection in every word I submit. I know what good writing sounds like, so I imitate it in my head and adopt it as my own.
