How Has English 101 Influenced Me!

What I believe will stick to me after I leave English 101 is Ethos, Pathos, and Logos most of all. I find myself pointing these things out when I’m watching television or when I’m having a conversation with someone. Most of the time I’m having a conversation with someone they don’t have a clue of what I’m talking about, unless it’s Abel because we’ve had all the same English classes. Another interesting thing that I think I will remember is how to write an argumentative essay. I believe I can really express myself in these kinds of essays and this makes it fun for me as well. Another thing I believe I will also remember is the counterargument part of the essay. Sometimes I start with this to get a sense of what direction I’m going to take my essay in. I know for sure two more things that will both stick to me and influence me in my future writing. One is the development of my thesis statement and how to make it clear. The other is my topic sentences and how to develop them to ease them out of and into the following paragraphs. These are the things I think I will remember from English 101.
