asked by a junior at my school. They were looking for classes to take next year; I told them that it was an abundant amount of writing, but it was a great class to take. I went on to explain to them, that taking it in high school would be easier and cheaper than in college. Beginning to explain to them that it helped me grow as a writer and helped improve my English vocabulary, I realized it helped a whole lot. Throughout the first semester of school, we had to write essays over four different topics

Throughout my life, adults have encouraged me to do well in school. However, on the first day of EN 100 it terrified me, as I did not know if I was going to be able handle a college class. I have heard of horrific tails about this class. Long papers and low grades seemed to be the stigma.

previous papers and what I am writing today. Am I a new writer? I always think that I am not. My writing started from the first time I write an English sentence in primary school, rather than started after struggling with high school and SAT essays. In my high school writings, my habitual idea is to write a five-paragraph-essay, and to take my most attention to word count and grammar issues. Frankly, I am sick of this model of writing, but after I take a step beyond it, I faced completely new challenges

Cover Letter I think what I struggled most with was the descriptive language, and vivid language to paint a picture for my audience. I thought writing in the past was going to be a piece of cake, but once I learned more rules when referring to the past in writing, I found myself worrying whether or not I used the right tense of transitional phrases and active verbs. Also I think trying to incorporate similes and metaphors were hard for me because I felt silly when adding these weird and odd phrases
Humbert the Pedophile Lolita, the novel by Vladimir Nabokov, tells the story of Humbert Humbert, who is a perfect example of a pedophile. Although the character Humbert Humbert describes his feelings toward the twelve year old Lolita as love, in actuality, it is obsessive lust. Nabokov does an excellent job displaying the characteristics of pedophilia through this character. Reading Lolita makes us conscious of the need to be more aware that pedophilia is alive and well in our society today. In
