Mr. Wyatt,
English is probably my favorite subject because of writing. I love writing when I am given the chance to be creative and write about what I want to write, however I find it very boring when I am forced to write about a subject that is not too interesting. The piece of writing that I have most enjoyed was my college essay, which is something that I am very proud of. My sophomore teacher Mr. Icsman made writing fascinating to me, and was really the first teacher that told me I was a very creative writer. I don't believe that I am incredibly gifted at it, but feel that when the topic is right i can bust out a good essay. I believe English classes are extremely useful, and I find myself using what I have learned in many facets of life. For instance, when writing 'thank-you notes' or emails to my past teachers letting them know I survived my first weekend of college, I find myself using the same tactics thats was taught to me in Mr. Icsman's class. I am not a big poem writer, but I do enjoy writing letters and facebook comments.

Ha ha. I like the Mr. Wyatt deal.
Nice.
Well, i like that you seem to have an optimistic approach to the idea of writing, and that you see the purpose and use of English. I know that it can (even when it's intentions are good) get a little boring at times, and I hope I can bring the right material to class to keep us all engaged and active.
Thanks for the response, Mr. Dean...
