can anyone help me with this ?? my teacher asked me to write an essay on the topic: Being me is special.
i totally have no idea about this essay. can anyone help me ? at least with a draft ?
need to be more than 350 words-_-
Start by coming up with your thesis. This could be a debatable statement. For instance, you could say that "Being me isn't really all that special. In fact, most of the key elements that define my life are virtually identical to those that define other people's lives." Alternatively, your thesis could merely be a statement of fact about yourself that you plan to discuss in detail. For instance, you could say, "Being me is special because I hear voices that tell me to kill people." Then, you could discuss how hearing voices telling you to kill makes you special.
Once you have your thesis, try to think of as many details as you can that relate to it. Then organize those ideas in some way that makes sense to you. That will give you a first draft that you can post here for more feedback.
Great Advice from Sean! :)
Here are some good steps for essay writing;
1. Write a powerful first sentence that will capture your readers attention.
2. At the end of the first paragraph, write your thesis statement.
3. Fill your body paragraphs with evidence to support your statement.
4. Write a conclusion paragraph which reflects on the thesis statement.
5. Conclude with a final thought that considers perhaps the implications of the thesis statement.
Maybe you should include a dictionary definition for the word "special".
Have fun with it!
You could have some fun using definitions of special that probably weren't intended. So, you could claim that being you is special the way that specials are special. That is, you are only a temporary being. You will have to be able to write well to pull off such an essay, though.
erm guys what you mean by thesis???
and OMG i and totally blank coz its the start of school -_-
can i have a modal sample answer ?
erm i wanna get the ideas~
A modal sample: "Being me often involves feeling depressed, especially when I try to get others to do my work for me and they refuse."
Now, if you had asked for a model sample, instead, then I would have had to refuse, on the grounds that would be doing the assignment for you instead of helping you to write it. Glad you only asked for a modal sample so I could give you one!
I think just take your time to brainstorm ideas u never taught u have will come to you
good luck
This should be a lot easier than you thought. Think of things that you feel are special about youeself. Brainstorm as many things as you can think of and write them down. You will probably be amazed as to what you come up with to write about. Start with a strong first paragraph. At the end restate your topic. You will be surprised that 350 words is not that many to have to write. Goodluck. Plugging
