My biggest challenge was getting the essay going. I can develop ideas easily and its the part of just starting to type… its reminds me of someone watching you try to paint a mural on a huge canvas, but you have no idea where to start at. Once I got going my ideas began to flow and form and it became much easier. My biggest success was actually getting out the main part of my body paragraphs for class. I used google and just searched analysis for “Monologue of an Onion” to get ideas. It told me about the authors background and helped me understand more about the poem. A helpful website I used was,: http://www.novelguide.com/a/discover/pfs_0000_0024_0/pfs_0000_0024_0_00019.html which tells about the poet and has critical analysis’s of the poem. I don’t necessarily agree with any of the critics but it still helped.

Man thats exactly how I feel too. I also have a really bad procrastination problem most of the time as well, which sucks a lot because I always end up cramming everything at the last minute. There for my papers are never as good as they should be.
