This paper was enjoyable for me because of its permission of creative boundaries. I feel more confident in myself as a writer when given these types of creative assignments. The parameters were broad and open, unlike the normal academia of typical college writing. I felt that making our own decisions about subject and form was the perfect way to go about such a personal essay. I agree with Puja that it was difficult to formulate such a personal and private essay, but it was also liberating at the same time. There were things too that I could have written about that are deeply personal to me- so i decided to focus on four aspects of my body: my hands, hips, head, and heart. The four sections of my essay described the things that have shaped and sometimes altered my view of the corresponding body part. It was a helpful and exploratory project in examining how i see those parts of my body and why they are the way they are. Despite its wavering difficulty, i enjoyed this assignment very much.
