Papers

Out of the papers I wish to put in my portfolio, I believe that my superstar narrative was the best example of my work. It was a topic i enjoyed writing on, and was a paper mainly about our commentary. With that being said, it was easier to write about a topic which I liked, and one that was mainly about me. However even though I felt it was my best work, it was actually one of my lowest scoring papers. So in a way it needs the most work as well. Maybe I am not good paralleling a hurdler's life to my own life being that I am a hurdler. Maybe I am better at writing research papers, reports inscribed into essays. I lacked the "my story" in the paper. So making a better connection between Edwin Moses and I will help my superstar narrative become better.

  1. i can see how you may have had a hard time with connecting your life with someone elses that you may admire...i know that when i was writing my paper it was hard for me as well cause i have to think about every little detail and see how they may be parallel to one another or how we both have over come...maybe when editing just try to think of that person as if he was your best friend..how you guys have in side jokes and such...think of the story as if he was someone you spent every day with that way it would be easier to parallel then as if you are really thinking it was a super stat hurdler
