Lesson 5, #1, What have you learned about the writing process and/or about yourself during this lesson?

I don’t realize that I actually started improving on writing essays and the process by pre writing. I learned more about the MLA guidelines and learned that I have to align the text to the left, and not justify. I used to justify for my essays because it looked more polished and neater. I was shocked when Ms. Kline told me that the text should be aligned to the left for the MLA to be correct. I struggled a bit to adjust to the new writing style for the paper but in the end, I actually learned about how to write papers in the correct way. In high school I hated freewriting because I felt that it wasted my time but right now I actually love it for using it to create a brainstorm or to find a thesis. I feel that I have evolved in the writing process.
