Rhetorical Rationale: to Write or Not
Waiting days and days to start a writing assignment after it has been given may be the definition of procrastination to many people. For me, it is a little bit different. I do not procrastinate on my writing assignment because I do not want to do them, but rather take a few days to decide what to write and how to portray it. I ponder through many possibilities and think about who will be reading my paper and what will make it the most interesting.
Writing has always been one of my weakest aspects, yet intriguing. I am cursed with the inability to make decisions, so I often find myself having an extremely difficult time deciding what to write. Not only is deciding what to write nearly impossible for me but figuring out the right words to start writing is almost more difficult. I have been told by many that I overthink my assignments and that I just need to sit down and start writing whatever I think of.
Throughout my English 1010 class, I had a lot of practice doing this. I did many activities in which I was forced to write one page about a specific topic of anything and everything that came to my head. These forced writing activities were timed and truly helped me get ideas of what to write on any given topic.
Throughout this semester in English 2010, I learned a lot about myself as a writer and came to love writing through this beneficial class. For each assignment, there were two different kinds of papers that we could write.

“ Rhizman is absolutely amazing at what he does . I highly recommend him if you need an assignment done ”
We learned about each one first and then chose one to write on. This way of teaching helped me to write more effectively. I was able to choose my topic and then decide which paper would portray it best.
Although I am horrible at making decisions, I enjoy being able to write about anything I choose and not be limited. As I learned about my writing capabilities this semester, I came to know that I write best when the topic is related to me personally. Writing about topics that relate to my life that I am passionate about helps me to write a much better paper because I am much more interested in the topic. Passion is the key to any paper or presentation because it draws your audience in when they can see that something means a lot to you.
Writing papers was always something that I used to run far away from and completely dread. After my two English courses through SLCC, I enjoy writing. I find it very therapeutic and even rewarding when a masterpiece has been created. I am now very strong in determining my rhetorical analysis, deciding which kind of paper would best suit a specific topic, and drawing my audience in through logos, pathos, and ethos. I am fairly decent at painting a picture in my readers’ heads through detail. I have found that when I am the reader, I tend to be way more intrigued when there is a lot of detail in a paper. I like to be able to visualize what it is or what is happening in my head so I do the same for my readers.
Overall, I enjoy writing and this specific semester of English 2010 has increased my interest and passion for it. It is not only therapeutic to read it but writing it and learning how to use your imagination is a whole therapy session in itself. Angelica Jimenez
