Writing

Writing in college seems like a dream now. I remember hating it and procrastinating until the very last minute, but...why? It's easy now to look back at paper writing and think about how silly it was to stress over them. Who does the final outcome of that paper really effect? Me and only me. hmm. At the end you even get a little prize (or punishment) for your hard work.

Real life reports and papers on the other hand make me want to vomit. Now, the report doesn't reflect just me, it reflects the programs, the organization, and the people/clients you are serving. Now, not only do you get positive or negative feedback, but it could also determine whether someone loans you money for your business or invests in your non-profit. Being the retrospective person that I am, now I wish I had taken more time and effort to write my papers ahead of time and get feedback from mentors and professors. I wish that I had put more into those things so that the now wouldn't be so hard.

Writing actually used to be really enjoyable. When did it go from enjoyable to dreadful? I have no idea...
