It's kind of hard to write about writing. I use it every day and usually don't even think about it. I use it for myself, and I use it to communicate with the ones I love. Writing is more than a skill used in class or in the working world. To me, writing is therapeutic and keeps me balanced. I’d be lost without it.
I’m a writer, not a fighter. When something good or bad happens to me, I write about it. I keep my thoughts and feelings in a journal to help me sort through them. Writing is therapeutic for me this sense. I can vent my frustrations, or relish on my accomplishments and read them over and over again.
We all know that college is a stressful time, and a busy time. It’s hard to find the hours in a day to catch up with all the ones you love. That’s where email and Facebook messaging come in. I keep in touch with my best friends through messaging on Facebook. Without writing, my relationships would not be as strong as they are with these people.
I’m fortunate that I belong to the category of people who enjoy writing. It not only comes in handy when I express myself in papers or written tests, but I also benefit from my writing skills when I communicate with professionals. When it came time to apply for internships at the end of last year, I’m positive that not only my resume, but my cover letters and emails got me all my interviews. I’m also fortunate that I’m putting my writing skills to use with a career in Public Relations.
