Did My Best

It had been another hard time in the world, It was  Friday 22^nd March. I did my best work in writing midterm test. Honestly, I first started to enjoy writing in senior high school in my extracurricular, journalism as a reporter. My favourite experience of journalism was make journalism as a new extracurricular in my school, because previously there had been no journalism in my school. Since then, I was a little much like writing. Thing that I like in writing was playing with words. Moreover after I entered a college as a student in major English Department, I had a lot of struggle, because English language had an immense warehouse of word, each with a specific and slightly different connotation and sound.

My dislikes of writing were to start and rewriting. A blank page had always scared me. Starting was daunting task, but once I have begun, the process usually stimulated my creatifity. As a writer, we should give attention for every word and punctuation mark. Because of this, we must sacrificed time, energy, and even a bit of ourselves of the story.

I thought my weaknesses in writing still very much. So that, in writing class, I realized how important writing skill was. Yesterday experienced such as writing class review, respond text, and recently narrative text increasingly challenging my skills in writing.

My ancient mind which always underestimated any job, took everything easy said that writing narrative text was a fun thing to work, because I didn’t need much energy. I just need a lot of daydreaming and imagination, but  writing was still writing. Thing that made disconcerting, I have found writer’s block, baffle, and weary. Including when I wrote narrative text for the assignment of midterm test, I couldn’t indiscriminate writing process anymore. Serious, focused and patient be required. I felt get little bit help because my job was re-created a new version of story ‘Little Red Riding Hood’ with first person perspective as a wolf. Honestly, I didn’t know much about wolf. Therefore I should find out a lot about wolf and that was so complicated. That was all like a whip for me to be able to work harder, learn smarter and neat.

 I got up at 3 am and started to write, I thought early morning was the best time to write, but already several days I couldn’t write a lot. Deadline was chasing me, oh God, I didn’t know exactly what to do. It was the hardest day for me but God very fair. He gave me the best, I got a lot of idea of my surroundings. Finally, I could finish my story with narrow deadline and I entitled my story with ‘Little Red Regrets’. God gave me the best because I did my best.
