Submitted my final paper I have submitted one of my final papers which is due before today's midnight. After a great number of hours, I completed it, but I still feel not very satisfied with it. One of the biggest reason is that writing in a second language can be tough for me. I am not sure whether what I wrote sound natural or not. What's more, I used some phrases and words repeatedly, such as for example, for instance, show, reveal, etc. I am worried about that using those words constantly will make my paper look more boring. I do hope I can receive a genuine compliment from the particularly demanding professor, perhaps that's an important reason that I worked so hard that sometimes I even felt a little headache. It's not all about trying to please him, but I have the urge to prove myself. Anyway, I have tried my best. One day I will prove myself!
