                                                                Writer’s Autobiography

                Me personally I just don’t find reading fun and interesting. Reading is the one thing that I don’t enjoy doing because it makes me sleepy and it’s boring. My whole life I think I read one or two books by myself and they were “Child Called It” and “The Freedom Writers”.  In High School when teachers ask me to read I tell them that I don’t know how to read so I wouldn’t read aloud. The reason is that I really don’t want the other students to laugh at me when I say some words wrong.  On the other hand I enjoy reading something that’s interesting like “The Child Called It”. I try to read but it just doesn’t go with me. I prefer doing math than reading a book the whole day. Reading is one of my worst things to do. For reading I would like to read more interesting books not those boring books that make people sleep.

                Writing to me is ok. It’s not that bad when I have something that interests me or something I like to write about. I enjoy expressing my feelings when I’m writing. Writing is another way to escape from this world and problems. In High School, I wrote a story for my college writing class and it was pretty good. The teacher liked it and told me that he likes the way I write and the details that I gave. Last, semester my English teacher told me that I write well but sometimes I have to give more so the readers could be into the writing. This helped me a lot so now I think my writing is pretty good if I could say myself. This semester, I would love for the teacher to let us pick our own topics that we like to write about. That will be awesome and fun. On top of that I would love this class more.
