peer revisions

I always hate peer editing. I hate having to read out loud or let people read my papers, especially when they are incomplete and shitty. It makes me very uncomfortable unless i am proud of my work, which i am usually not.I think it is just embarrassing to me and awkward. The way we did the revisions in class was helpful. We had no choice of who would read our papers so it wasn't as easy as just pairing up with a friend and switching papers with them. I wish it would of been anonymous or something. I like this way a lot better than having to hear your paper read out loud to you that sucked. I got a lot of helpful feedback that i wouldn't of noticed on my own. I like that we got to ask questions that they had to address. As far as editing other peoples paper goes, i can give my opinion but i am not sure that my advice is too great. I tried to give good feedback but if i can't even figure out my own paper than how am i supposed to help someone else.
