Habits "Planning and Replanning" Q/D #14

" The best way to see your writing with fresh eyes is to set your draft aside- for a day is thats all you have, or for longer if possible. When you pick it up again, you'll be able to see more clearly whats working and w hats not"(pg.216, Para. 4)

When a writing assignment is assigned to me, I prefer to finish it in one sitting. I found that it is a very insufficient way to complete my assignments because I end up getting stressed about how I can finish my assignment. As a result, I feel my work is unsatisfactory to me but by that time it would have already been too late to revise it because I had turned it in already. I think this would be a helpful method for me so I don't cram all the info into one assignment and have not time to revise it.

Kwan is the name of the sister who is from China. Olivia never felt loved by her mother who was always going out leaving Kwan to take care of Olivia and her siblings. For this reason Olivia resented Kwan because she was more of a mother than her own mother. Overtime Kwan influenced Olivia's imagination or stories and eventually she even learned Chinese reluctantly. Olivia reads the world by how Kwan always influenced and stuck with Olivia. Olivia narrates the times she spent with her sister and re-experieces that by re-telling her experiences. Kwan always shared her beliefs with Olivia and that shaped who she is as the person who is narrating from the future.
