college essay
For my college essay I am thinking of continuing along the lines of writing about doing something outdoors such as hunting or fishin. I plan to write with a message of love for the outdoors as well as the importance of simplicity and quiet.
As I mentioned in class, I'd encourage you to revisit that hunting piece you wrote last year. I'm not sure it would be immediately transferable to the college essay, but I do recall that it had many fine moments that you could 'mine' for your current assignment.
and a connection to nature
ReplyDeletenice. that could be really good...as i've basically commented on everyone else's post, i think it helps to pick a specific story
