So. Here I am at the Assumption College; I'll be 22 years old in 3 days. Now that I have clear goals in my life and know the ultimate purpose of my life, I'm now a college freshman who is working hard to achieve them. The past 6 weeks have been difficult - all of a sudden moving from Canada, and I'm stuck in a dry dorm with a bunch of 18 year olds. It's even more difficult to compete with a rusty brain; I try my best to make up the difference with more efforts, and so far it seems to work. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Anyway, I'm not a very good writer, let alone being a good communicator (hence I suck at essays). So, when I have great ideas or frustration in my mind, I tend to either confuse the audience (and myself) or close myself. Even at this moment I have so much to say, but I cannot express it well. I very much want to improve at this area, however. No matter how great my ideas are, if they're not communicated effectively, they're as good as nothing. No matter how frustrated I may be, if I cannot efficiently convey it to the source of frustration, there will be no resolution of conflict. No matter how much passion I have for the poor and the oppressed, if I cannot speak for them effectively, I will not be able to lend a voice to them. So, I hope that keeping a blog will help my writing to improve, along with the help of the academic support centre. Repetition makes it perfect, right?

Your writing has improved! Not that it was bad when you wrote this post, but the most recent one made for a really interesting read that was very well worded and organized and really got the point[s] across. :)
