Stop and Smell the Writers

If one was to ask me how I felt about the upcoming assignment regarding our analytical essay, I would have to actually say that I am kind of excited. For the first part, I think I am going to enjoy the freedom of choosing our own topic and not from a given list regarding solely topics concerning the civil rights movement. I am looking forward to picking a piece on a topic that I may be particularly impassioned about. It sounds like fun to tear into some self-entitled lime lighter or some huge monopolized major conglomerate. To address the more scholastic aspect of the assignment, I am also eager to have my analytical skills, well in a sense, analyzed. Despite the importance we put on self-validation and empowering oneself, it is always nice for someone to know where they stack up against the world. Honestly if there was ever a time to start to define yourself and begin to see where you would want to head in life, it is now. I suppose that would be the cause though regardless of where a person is in their life. Now I do not know if that is a little much to expect from an introductory English class, but never the less, I am eager to pick my topic and get started cramming my own opinions down other people throats for a change.
