The argument essay was the essay that showed my weakness, because it was hard for me to process what I was thinking on the paper. I am one of the best writers I just know how to explain what I be trying to say, also time management is a weakness.

I compare those two things because in a relationship there are times when I got to do better to make the significant other happy for a mistake I made. Likewise, if I fail a test I got study harder for the next one. When I first came to class I was shy, but as days went by I started to come out my shell seeing others say what they wrote in ...
