Assignment #2

I think one of my topics maybe my research paper I had to write for my reading class. I was never good at writing papers, however, my research paper made it easy for me. My research paper gave me the opportunity to write what I wanted that is why I did so good on it. I was never good at writing papers because I could not relate to any of the topics or find them interesting. I found out that writing papers is not that hard because you just have to try your best. Also, you need to make the topic interesting or else your going to find your paper boring.

Second, I believe that my English class had a huge influence on how I speak because it made me expand my vocabulary. My English class showed me that I do not have to settle for less. Therefore, I should use big words in order to sound smart. Not only did they help me with my vocabulary but with my writing as well. My writing improve a lot just by using different words because it gave my paper a different format and style. My English class changed the way I talked and write.

Third, my trip to mexico made me realize that my Spanish was not as good as I thought. I found out that I did not speak good Spanish. I found out that my vocabulary in Spanish was weak because I talked like a 5th grader. I realize that my parents focused on teaching me English because they said it was the dominant language. Therefore, my Spanish was never highly considered. Now I want to expand my vocabulary in Spanish because I want to be fluent.
