Reflections: Looking Forward

In this past first half of the semester, I got to read a lot of cool, exciting, and interesting stories. I'm really excited to get to read more for the second half. It's awesome to think of all the possibilities of types of stories that I'll have the opportunity to read. It also gets me excited thinking about what stories I'll read that will capture my attention or make me want to spin it in my own way and make it a part of my portfolio.

Speaking of my portfolio, I'm already ready to see the final product (I know, I know, I still have some weeks to go)! Honestly, I'm the type of person that will read over my writings over and over when I finish it, just to see how I put it together and if I liked the end product. I still, to this day, will go back and read random essays for class, or writing I did when I was bored, from years ago. I just really enjoy looking at how far I've come in my writing (even if some of my old writing makes me cringe). It's a learning experience and it's definitely necessary.

As mentioned, I'm ecstatic to get to meet even more new people in the weeks to come. I've gotten to meet so many cool people thus far and it'll be great to be introduced to more. Also, not only am I ready to see the finished product of my portfolio, but also of my fellow classmates projects, too. I've seen so many great starts to storybooks and portfolios and it'll be nice to see how they end up by the time they're finished.
