Why did I decide to take this course? Do I like to write? Why or why not?

The reasoning behind my taking this course is that the content of this class was very interesting. Observing and discovering me is one crucial step to know everything. This assumption can be substantiated by the maxim of Descartes, a French philosopher. " Conquer yourself, not the world." The crux coming from this maxim is that everything results from me and me is everything. I thought this course was the best activity to delve into this issue more deeply. That is why I took part in this class. But more importantly, the reason why I decided to entry this course was that an instructor was Mark! This was the most consequential factor to participate in this class!

I like to write something. For me, to write something is a dialogue with myself. Writing something is one essential process to know myself. Fortunately or unfortunately, I don't know , but especially I like to write an academic essay! As to me, an essay is equivalent to making a puzzle. Pieces of a puzzle are sources of an essay and the framework is the outline of an essay. So, it is very exciting to build up an essay step by step. Sometimes I feel writing an essay is so struggling process but can feel so great fullfilment when finishing writing. It's a matter of regret that I do not write an academic essay in this course.

  1. Very glad to hear that you like writing. I remember that you wrote a fascinating essay in ARW last year. I like the Descartes quote too!
