about a vacation or a trip, I always look forward to them because they are
always some of the best experiences and I love to travel.
Everyone has their ups and downs when it comes to happiness.
Overall, sports, family, friends, and traveling are the four main excepts of my
happiness. I have realized that everyone has opportunities to find happiness.
Even though you may feel unhappy, I have learned, there is always a way to
find happiness. You just need to know where to look.
Peer Review Questions: (Use during peer review session when responding to
your classmates papers, include answers in a summary endnote.)
a. Where can the text benefit from further detail or explanation? Where does it
need less?
-There are a lot of components to this paper that give you the
opportunity to provide lots of detail. When talking about your
family, maybe elaborate on specific memories, routines you may
have together, etc. Living abroad sounds absolutely awesome,
and, as a reader, Im definitely interested in learning more about
that, so try to provide more stories/details about your life at that
time.
b. What does this writer do particularly well that you would like to add to your
own writing repertoire?
-You have a lot to go off of in your writing. For me, experiences
area big contributor to my happiness. So, doing more cool things
could help me have more to write about. Maybe not necessarily
live abroad, but it inspires me to experience more things out of
my comfort zone so that I DO have more to write about.
c. Where in the text do you, as the reader, get confused? Point these out to the
writer.
-I never felt confused, however, It was easy to get lost because I
felt that youd be talking about one subject, and instead of
elaborating on it, youd just skip to the next subject and missed
a. The first paragraph should focus on the feedback you received from your
peers. What were the peer suggestions given to you? How did you
incorporate these into your revision process? What feedback did you decide
not to incorporate?
This entire peer review process was one of the most helpful in making
my paper better. I say this because my peers really took the time and
effort to read my essay and point our major keys to improve my paper.
From the two people that reviewed my essay, they both said that my
paper lacked detail on some parts. This means I need to go back and
add more examples from my life into the paper. They also said that my
paper had some elements in it to draw them in as a reader. In the
future, I am going to keep using these techniques to keep making
future papers more interesting. Both my peer reviewers also
mentioned that I lack a presence of author in my essay. I now am going
to add more detailed accounts of my life into the essay to give it more
of my presence. Overall, I am glad I had my paper peer reviewed
because it will make my papers better in the future.
b. The second paragraph should reflect upon the feedback you provided for
your peers. Provide at least three concrete examples of the feedback you
gave.
One type of feedback I gave was to give a more detailed conclusion. In
one of peers papers, they did not elaborate in their conclusion and
made the paper not wrap up the way it should. Another type of
feedback I gave was to add more examples of personal life into the
essay. I said this because putting more detail into the essay really
makes the audience read the essay to a more personal level. One more
example of feedback I gave was to give a better hook for the reader. In
one of my readers essay, the introduction only had one sentence and
really nothing to hook the reader in.
