I plan to revise my paper from unit 2 portrait of a word, “Wallah”. I have never in my life wrote an actual poem before, but I feel like I can really go into depth about how us Muslims are supposed to use the word. I feel as if I put it into a poem it will have much more meaning rather than writing an essay about it. I want to make the new generation of Muslims actually understand how powerful “wallah” is and to not use the word in any little situation. The point I want to get across is that us Muslims need to start using the word religiously and not culturally.
Hadeel– a couple of things: remember it has to be at least 600 words and have images as well as words. This is a chance for you to play to your strengths. Poems aren’t easy to write, especially if you aren’t used to reading and writing them!! So if you don’t know how to write one, you might want to choose something a bit different. You can think of something a bit more informal than a paper– a short story, or just prose– writing in paragraph form, but informally.
Bring in what you’ve got on Tuesday and we’ll talk! I think you’re on the mark with your topic!
Hadeel, unfortunately, I never got a second revision from you.
