Finally, in these final few lines, I explained how I am prepared to tackle the difficult challenges that I know would inevitably arise since I am on a mission. That mission is to work hard for the career of my desires no matter how difficult it is in order to be stable enough to contribute to society successfully.

This is a "free write" that we did in class recently to think on how we want our experiences in this class to play out during the rest of the semester. As you can see from the first few phrases, I explained how I wanted to learn as much as possible to help me in the future. I made it very obvious that "it wasn't about the work" and that it goes far deeper than that.

This section has a more detailed description of how I will utilize what I've learnt from this experience in the future. I simply stated a dull thing in my draft about how you need a decent set of communication skills to thrive in the field I want to pursue. In the final text, I emphasized how particular examples from the event are similar to ones I could meet in the future, and how the experience would be forever known.

This annotation consists of me adding additional specific examples to my final copy. In this section, I precisely described the issue in broad terms with minimal elaboration. In the final, I was able to provide a bit more backstory to the event's location in order to offer the reader a greater understanding of the experience and how it affected me.

Before I begin annotating, I want to make it obvious that this draft did not correspond to the requirements of the assignment. I was intended to arrange the draft such that the events lined up like a plot, but I failed miserably. So, to begin my final copy, I was able to rework my introduction to my pre-event experience.

"I'd want to learn a lot from Professor Zimmerman so that I may obtain as much information as possible and use it in reality. It's not about the work."

"To summarize, I am prepared to conquer all hurdles in my path to achieving the career of my dreams so that I may contribute to my society. I am a firm believer in the concept of dreams coming true."

"I didn't fully understand it at the time, but throughout my time as a freshman at Boston College I've realized that I have the power to alter myself for the better and broaden my perspective on life. For most of my high school experience, I was holding to antiquated thoughts that had an impact on the majority of my daily interactions. Throughout my life, growing up as a single child has affected the way am in social interactions. This was evident in high school class discussions, as I did not yet have the confidence to be talkative and participate even up until the spring term of my senior year."

"Specifically, when one of my classmates stated how he was struggling with the concept and another one of my classmates took the initiative to clarify it, I realized that that individual possibilities vary greatly among students."

"The need to engage with people in terms of evaluating them for the aim of acquiring a different point of view was one occasion this semester where the knowledge I received in class positively changed the way I approached an issue. I was patient enough to explore other perspectives, some of which disagreed with mine, so that I might learn about their opinions without bias or prejudice."
