2 Specific Things I could do in my life to open myself up to reality

  1. Education: Throughout my educational career, I have always focused on trying to open myself up. To open myself up to new opinions, perspectives, situations, and to always look at each and every one of these things with fresh eyes. I have always strived to and will continue to strive to form and further develop my own opinion. The only way for me to do that is to try and learn as much as I can from the world around me, to try to be as educated as possible on the subjects that concern me. And to teach me how to analyze, critique, and look at things from as many different perspectives as possible.
  2. Career: My longtime goal in life is to become a first responder. My goal is to study and pursue becoming a Paramedic (for a career, or as a start to something greater). I have chosen this because I want to open myself up to the world. I am becoming more and more aware of the reality that we are facing, with the overdose crisis, etc. Through this career, I am going to see ugly things, the best and worst of humanity, and people in their worst situations. But this is the reality of our lives. I am now becoming more aware of these things, and I want to have a career where instead of standing back and letting it happen, I could play a role in actually physically do something to help, no matter how small my part may be.

Essay Reflection

Overall, with this assignment, I would say that I am pleased with the work that I put in, and the result that came from it. With this assignment, I was able to effectively take use and manage my time given to produce a good piece of writing, I feel.

What went well on the essay, I would say, is the use of literary devices that we learned in class. The description of the situations and showing the emotions through description I think was the strongest part of my essay. This helped with the tone and the flow of the story.

Where I think my biggest struggle with this assignment was, is the structure of the story. Doing the plot diagram prior to writing was helpful, but I found myself easily deviating from the path I intended and had to work to get myself back on track. Certain parts of the story were more drawn out than they need to be, and others may have been too short. If I could improve on one thing in writing this essay again, it would be the better structure of ideas and transitions.
