Your only homework for the weekend is to draft a version of your
personal narrative essay. Please reference the assignment sheet and the
student example--both located in the Content section--for details on
what's expected for this assignment. At a minimum, the rough draft of
the paper should be half of the page count of the requirement for the
final draft. This weekend, I will create discussion boards to which you
will post your drafts, and we will discuss workshop guidelines and
policies in class on Monday.
A few people
have expressed interest in the short video we watched this week, as well
as the essay on Happiness vs. Meaning that I briefly referenced. Here
are the links to those materials, in case anyone else would like to
review them:
David Foster Wallace: "This is Water"
Emily Esfahani Smith: "There's More to Life than Being Happy"
