                Peer Review.. if you ask my classmates, they’ll tell that when they did it in high school it was horrible and that it led to nothing but failure. As always, I found a way to disagree. Personally I feel that peer review offers a different view of the assignment other than from your teacher’s perspective, a view point that allows someone else who is working on the same assignment as you to give feedback and potentially even help you come to making drastic changes in your writing. With our first major writing assignment coming up, I plan on truly utilizing the peer review and the members of my group. So far the comments they have left on my biographical mixtape assignment will really come to help and will definitely be kept in mind when I’m writing my essay.

                Speaking of the biographical mixtape assignment, I truly enjoyed it.. it was two of my favorite things combined into one: music & creative writing. What’s better than writing about yourself in ways of doing it through a sense of music. I wrote about things that few people knew about me and what I loved most was that I was able to explain my story through music. It’s ironic because when I decided to make a change I did it through music.. I took to writing my own poetry and found Logic 9 software and began putting beats behind it. Music is something that saved me honestly.
