End of a week long suffering...

This assessment task really exhaust me. Miss Laura and Miss Karla ask the whole year 11 to make a portfolio which consists of 5 pieces of academic writing. From the first piece that I start on, I got no ideas, no inspirations. It was a difficult start. Fortunately, as the D-Day gets nearer, I start to force myself even harder. Even though all the pieces are finished on time, I still regret not using my time wisely. If I had started earlier, I would be able to submit more drafts and correct more mistakes that I may have made.
My topic is about computer viruses and worms. I must admit, by doing this assessment, I gained more knowledge about computer viruses and how to handle them. I found a lot of useful informations that I can directly apply in my life.
From this assessment task, I had been able to learn a lot more about academic writing. There are many new things that I had learned such as citing sources, using formal language and using thesis statements and topic sentences. I know that these things will be useful in the future.
In the end, I would like to say thanks to both of my english teachers, Miss Laura and Miss Karla. Even though this assessment task that they gave me was like a never ending torture, I know that I have learnt many new useful things.
