Most of the students nowadays have no effective technique to produce good quality essay writing. A good essay can be produced if they do follow these few stages of writing process. Well, there are six stages of writing a good essay such as getting ideas, organizing ideas, writing draft, revising, editing and completing the paragraph.

The 1st stage of writing process is getting ideas. Getting or gaining ideas can be done by doing some prewriting activities, free writing, listing, mind mapping and bubbling in order to get the main idea of your essay. The 2nd stage of writing process is organizing ideas.

UFS 211 1st Task




Today's topic is about what is love to you? Some people might say that love is killing. Some of them might think that love is blind. But for me, love is universe. Love is a kind of emotion and it's a gift from God to every living thing in this world. Yes, people might say that love is killing or love is blind because they may have experienced it themselves. But for my opinion, love is a special gift from God and a wonderful thing if they know how to appreciate it. When we talked about love, most of the people will automatically think that it is about the feelings that rise among human being towards their opposite sex. No. That is not true. Like I mention just now, love is universe. It could be rise between you and your girlfriend or boyfriend or it could be rise between you and your friends or even between you and your family members! Love is not completely refers to the passionate desire and intimacy of romantic love or sexual love of Eros, but it is also to express the emotional closeness of familial love and platonic love that defines friendship.  So, do appreciate this lovely feeling as it may bring peaceful to all of us.
