Narrative Essay

During the process of writing my narrative essay I think I did well on showing instead of telling. In my opinion, I did a good job of describing my situation in a vivid way. Another thing I think I improved on was the structure of my writing. I liked how I was able to make everything flow while I was reading. Two things I can work on, is clearly stating my reasoning. I understand now that nobody is in my head, and therefore they do not see why certain events are happening throughout the story. Something else would be to get to the point a bit better, instead of dragging on unnecessary details. I think I might need to get better at cutting out dead wood.

If I were to change anything, I would have made the hollandaise sauce better. I would have put less cayenne pepper because mine ended up tasting very strong and spicy because of it. Next time I make eggs Benedict I am going to buy a pre-made hollandais sauce because it is difficult to get it right. I would also add avocado inside to give it a bit more flavour.

Human Condition

In the video Am I Pretty Enough?, by LeendaDProductions, a girl is seen sticking post-it notes to a wall. The notes are filled with all of her insecurities and doubts, which she pins up one after the other. Once she has finished her task, other people begin to emerge from the shadows. They begin to cover the notes the girl left with ones of their own, with positive messages instead of the negative ones we had seen before. As the girl reads what the others have written, we see her begin to smile, unlike when she had been crying a few minutes before. As people, when we aren’t told we matter very often, we can start to feel we don’t at all. We tend to be the hardest on ourselves and have no problem identifying imperfections and undesirable qualities, yet it only takes a couple of nice words to change our perspective or mood. When we don’t feel noticed or special we can begin to question ourselves. This video shows that as humans, we crave to be seen.
