Thank you for the time in lab to start writing - it gave me a good jump in beginning my essay. I guess what I was doing is what you call'free writing', I just wrote stuff as it came and sort of let it flow. Now I just need to go through that and take the best parts that fit what I really want to say.
I agree with Dave, not be a strong writer and stumbling with how and what to start with, it was a great oportunity for me to be forced to start writing things that come to mind knowing I had a limited amout of time to do it.
