Addressing the Writing Process

The writing process itself is really important and valuable to me. I think that writing is becoming more meaningful to me now than never before. Not only because I am doing it more consistently but also because I am doing it in a foreign language. There are several things that I enjoy during the writing process. One of them is the fact that I can mold my writing in the way I want. It is true that when writing academic papers, everyone has to respect several grammatical, structural, and organizational rules; but in terms of word choice there is a variety of words and phrases that an individual can use in different manners in order to express something. In my opinion the writing process is what I call “the mankind dilemma”. “The man kind dilemma” emerges when people try to define or establish equality in random situations, and it is based on two arguments: all men are equal —according to the Declaration of Independence and Christianity—; and every single man is different— in terms of human physiology and human anatomy. In the same way, the results of the writing process is always equal on the structural elements that an individual must have on a paper (introduction, body paragraphs, conclusion, grammar criteria, etc), but it is different on selection of expressions, words, and bias that a person can use. That is the reason why one paper written by one student is never the same as the one his or her classmate wrote.      For me the more complex task during writing is my unfluent and inaccurate way of typing. When writing a paper, I organize my ideas and structure at a high-speed level, but my slow typing pace does not help me fully develop them especially during the thirty minutes essay and the ten minutes paragraphs. I have always thought that my typing skills were fine, but when I took a typing diagnostic test, I realized that I should start to work on improving my typing skills and to not procrastinate more on this defining aspect of writing. So, since took that diagnostic typing test, I have been trying to correct this problem by practicing typing every day and during my free time. Furthermore, writing the conclusion of a paper is one of the things that I still having trouble with. Because the function of a conclusion is to restate and summarize the main details explained on the entire essay, I find a little bit difficult to say the same ideas in different words. In order to get rid of this problem I have been trying to read more and to use the new words I learn, so I can have a wide range of vocabulary. Thus, I feel that I should end this paragraph at this point due to the scarcity of more ideas.
