Since I am writing this in the final week of classes, I have quite a few writing assignments to do. This, on top of my usual obligations for The Caravel, means that I have been doing substantially more writing in these past two weeks than what I would normally do. As for feedback, I generally do well on papers in which I take the instructors prompt and view it in relation to a competing argument, which is a tactic I found out in high school that still works. I would say overall that my biggest weakness is still trying to find ways to reach a word or page limit, since I feel I have always been able to describe precisely what I mean to say in nothing more than a medium-sized paragraph.My usual academic writing habits have not changed, since I usually start late at night and finish about an hour past midnight, when I can then move on to tinkering on my creative projects. Despite it being very late, I often feel more focused in my writing than I would at any other time, since I have had time to rest after classes end. It is also much more quiet at night than during the day, and it gives less of a temptation for me to look out the window or otherwise be distracted by what is happening outside. I cannot see any reason why this would change in the future, though in a post-college world I probably will not have any reason to stay up so late.
