When the essay was first assigned, I was a little mad. I'm really skeptical about advertisements, especially when people try to tell ME how I respond to them. But, I looked over the requirements and just started writing.
I kept looking at the requirement sheet and my ads and basically, my words came together! I had a few problems, thanks to my roommate pointing them out, with my tone and voice. My paper sounded a little informal at first, but with some proofreading and editing I changed that really quick.
I'm a perfectionist when it comes to my English papers. I probably had 4 "rough" drafts and my roommate probably had my entire essay memorized by the end of the first week.
The day of peer editing I was really confident with my paper, I felt like it was my final draft, and my group responded to it really well! I got a lot of positive feedback and good constructive criticism as well. I took (some) their advice and now I'm really ready to turn it in.
Overall, this assignment was good. I think it let us be creative with our emotions and really analyze how (some) people perceive advertisements.
