Your description of smoking was void of any tired cliches I had heard before; I mean "It was an overwhelming high, where I felt like a lava lamp with an insatiable case of the munchies"? Perfect word choice. Also, you honesty was what I most appreciated as a reader; your writing was REAL (sorry no italics) and that made me feel what you were feeling (especially in regards to marijuana and missions).Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04876209121891308032noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3193051508933511187.post-1046669018834639292015-01-28T14:44:03.404-07:002015-01-28T14:44:03.404-07:00I felt like you used different approaches with eac...I felt like you used different approaches with each section, but they were all successful. They were also very well rounded. I felt as much feeling when tempted with drugs, as I did when you talked about not going on a mission which I really appreciated. You made all these situations feel real and important.

Expressing your inner thoughts and feelings seems to be your strength in these essays--good job!Katie Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01024734270882884815noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3193051508933511187.post-75273444805372800172015-01-27T23:17:53.126-07:002015-01-27T23:17:53.126-07:00I found your essays really interesting.

What made you find peace? I know you only had 200 words to write, but those are the questions I had after reading.Hillaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18146540454666218404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3193051508933511187.post-29514199068198159992015-01-27T15:37:04.169-07:002015-01-27T15:37:04.169-07:00Wow, I really enjoyed your essays.

Your final essay really struck a chord with me because it is similar to my inner struggle essay which includes a mission and a study abroad as well. I can heare your voice as a constant through these essays which sounds obvious since they are personal essays but I like when I can identify a writer with their voice.Paige Laurenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11247954231648357794noreply@blogger.com
