            During my senior year of high school, my AP Language teacher assigned to us a am argumentative paper. The paper itself was more so a research paper, but the student could pick whatever topic in today’s world they wanted to choose. I decided to choose a topic in which I find interest in, Global Warming. I believe the best writings assignments are ones the writer can become excited about not just another paper that has to meet a certain word count. On the contrary, in my British Literature class in my senior year, I was forced to write a paper on the social issues of Pride and Prejudice. As much as I thoroughly enjoyed reading that particular book which caused me to fall asleep several times during reading, the topic of discussion could not have been less entertaining and appealing to a teenage boy.

            In short, the papers I personally take joy in writing are the ones in which the writer can become passionate about and find interest in. Unlike, trying to explain why Mr. Darcy and Jane would not work out do to certain economically issues and social status trends of the timeframe.
