because I was telling a story. However, because of the structure of the essay, it was
sometimes hard to stay consistent with the overall mood of the paper. In fact, I was
advised by my professor to consider reordering the paragraphs in my essay to provide
more build for the conclusion. In addition, this essay taught me how to smoothly
transition between paragraphs.
Addicted
This essay was written as part of the Lincoln Academy I Believe project. I wrote this
essay on the importance of community service. I used personal experiences and quotes to
add validity and interest to my paper. My favorite part of this essay was my introduction.
I introduced my essay with the question, Have you ever realized that we are surrounded
by addicts? This question not only got the readers attention, but also allowed me to
easily organize my essay around the question. In addition, I concluded my essay with the
addiction comparison, which tied back in to my introduction. This essay specifically
taught me not to use personal pronouns in my writing (like you and our), but to instead
write in third person, only.
