Here is Heather's response [sic]:
When I leave this class I will continue to write. Writing is the way I get out my emotions, in a positive way. It lets me write what I want, how I want it said. Yes you can type up things, but erasing or scratching out things can make your thoughts clear. Without writing things other than essays, you could lose your imagination. That would be the worst thing I could think of.
Creative Writing is what helped me out a lot this year. It helps clear my head, and when I need to vent, I just write it down. Why not keep writing? I'm not used to having someone there to write to, so paper is all I have. It can give you strength to your writing, and always make you imagine things that only your brain can think of. It's a beautiful thing to do that. If you keep it all in, without others reading it, how do you plan to let it all out.
Outside of school during the summer is probably busy for a lot of people, but even when you are on the road you can type. When ideas come to your head and you type it up, you can go back later and continue on that idea. Then when you want to show someone, you can. Writing is the spread of ideas. Without it, where would we be? Stuck without innovation.
When I leave this class, I plan on using all I have learned to write the greatest papers known to man. I won't have all the problems that others might have because I'll have all I need for next year. All of my classes have thrived because I got all my creativity out in this class. With that, I've been able to focus better in other classes. All because of this class. So yes, I will continue to write outside of this class.
My personal value for writing comes in to play when I get upset. I tended to do stupid things when I got upset. Now, instead of doing those things, I write. It has saved my life many times, and it probably will in the future as well. You can't put a numerical value on someone's life, but they try. You cannot put a numerical value on writing either.
