Why I Write

The importance of critical analysis.

Why I Write
The Thrillionaire

Some writers write for the potential money involved. Some write to tell their story. I, write for neither of those reasons. Personally, I hate fictional writing. Don't get me wrong, I love to read. Those as for writing it, no thank you! Now yes, I love how writing a book starts. How the exposition introduces every single character as each character has their own individual and personalized background. However writing passed the exposition is just awful. No, I write for more than fiction. I write for

Though in all seriousness, critical analysis allows a lot more open doors in the writing world. As opposed to fiction, I can write for any newspaper, online site, academic paper, etc. Also, I can write about anything I want. Now yes, fiction does give the same licenses. However, my term of "anything" appears to be much broader than fiction's term of "anything". For example, in the world of fiction one can write about how two or more character perform a certain set of actions and then explain their thoughts and feelings. I can write about any topic at hand, from art restorations, what was found at the newestarchaeologicaldig, the latest in politics, etc. My topic choice is truly endless.

Critical analysis writing is also an outlet for evidence- supported opinions. I can state anything that is on my mind about any trending idea, however I must have evidence to back it up. This is actually my favorite part as I am allowed to bring out my inner nerd girl In my writing.

In order to back up my points I use history, science, math, and random encyclopedia facts. I talk about current news stories, point out amazing artist feats, and occasionally discuss my view on politics. It is through these pieces that I get a chance to voice my opinion. Without critical analysts, there would not be logical arguments or legal defenses. There would be no such thing as newspaper columnists and most of all there would be no one available to right letters to the editor. Those who are the masters of critical analysis are some of the most valuable to this world. They have the ability to absorb what is around them, apply what they know, and speak new ideas. It is an incredible process. So don't count out the writers who don't contribute to the New York Bestsellers List. We all contribute, and in my opinion I think we need more logical thoughts compared to "50 Shades Darker".

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
