Compare OR Contrast

When I found out that I was going to write an essay about MySpace and Facebook. My first reactions where, "Wow, this is going to be really easy." But as I started to hear some of the requirments, my thoughts seem to stray away from my original thoughts. So as usuall, I went to the writing center for guidance. I was originally going to write some things that MySpace and FaceBook were different. But I found out that it is more simple to write the things that were alike. Because I can think of a million things that MySpace and FaceBook have in common. So I started to gather all the information I could think of. Which was just as common as anything to everything. I picked out three of the major things MySpace and FaceBook had in common. And from there, my ideas kept on raging. They grew, and grew until I couldn't think of anything else. When I went to the writing center for guidance, I was no where near prepared. I thought they were going to give me a pat on the back for good work, but they didn't do nothing but correct my whole entire essay. It was more than fine for me. I did not want to turn in a lowsy paper. I am actully pretty glad that they told me my paper was basically a piece of crap.
