Writing Center

My first trip to the writing center was not at all what I was expecting. I was expecting to be told I was an awful writer and that I couldn't fix it. I was nervous and scared to walk in and have my literary analysis rough drat worked on, but I was still scared out of my mind. I knew it needed work and I had a mental block on my last couple of paragraphs. When I walked in the nice lady at the desk went and got a writing center helper. I went at my English block because that was the only time they had open before the rough draft was due. While I waited for my writing center helper I chatted with my friends who were in their for study hall and that helped clear my mind and not be as scared. By the time the writing center helper came, I was nervous but not as nervous. He made me read my thesis statement and said it was good. After that he helped me with my mental blocks and helped give me suggestions on what I needed to work on and what ideas I could put in my paper. When my session was over I felt better about my paper and feel that he really helped me. It was a great experience and i will not be nervous next time I go because they were nice and helpful!
