Article 2, and Half Way Home

Progress report, so what about the second article? Well for the second article, with regards to essence and theme, we had decided to achieve a close similarity with that of our first article. This was an easy choice to make, as it played into one of my preferred writing styles. With a little bit of reasoning and my previous sentence, you have almost assuredly guessed what my role in the article was. That’s right; I’ve been promoted to writing duty again. A self promotion I must confess, but I felt it to be both necessary and logical to take such a position. Not only am I the most capable writer of the group (no offense to my fellow group members), but I’m not exactly the greatest choice for picture sourcing. It worked out well for everyone, so let’s move on to a brief discussion of the article.

What does the article entail exactly? Like I previously mentioned, we had decided to stick with the Early Morning Market. But more than that, we expanded to the area surrounding the market; we did this in order to discuss the renovations of Warwick Junction’s infrastructure. Being the writer, I compared the pros and cons that may be experienced by the loss of the Early Morning Market over the (supposed) newly planned mall. To fully grasp this concept, I read a short analysis on the successful placing of malls. And by choosing to focus primarily on the Early Morning Market and the effects it might face, while managing to maintain a more broad scope throughout this article. It tried to illuminate the very real possibility that the FIFA World Cup world cause more loss than gain. However, I did make an attempt in presenting both sides of the story; this was only to a limited degree, owing to the short nature of the article.

In the end, we managed to churn out a half-decent article that I am in no way displeased about. I have to admit to doing a majority of the work, moreover, I don’t see that changing for the next article. But there is a silver lining to this cloud. At least I get to completely control my mark, which is what I wanted in the first place.
