nobody likes stale bread

Considering that this was the first essay of my college career, I feel proud for having finished it, although I see room to grow. For this paper, I feel like I had a good thesis. It certainly took time and revising to finally come to this thesis, but none the less, I feel reluctant to have made it comprehensive. However, I am positive that I could have edited it more. Writing is like art, you have your idea of how you want it to look, but you must sculpt it and transform it into a masterpiece.
For the future, I intend to think it through more thoroughly, and to be more creative. On essay number 1, the topic was played out, and stale like old bread. All of the ideas I had already heard of, or had been thinking about for months prior. But on the other hand, I guess the fact that I had it in my head for so long, made for a good essay, since I had more opinions on the topic. For upcoming essays, I want them to be refreshing. I want to be able to “think outside the box” more, and for the reader to be intrigued and interested in what I have to say. For this upcoming paper, I want it to be memorable, rather then the first essay, where the ideas seem to flow into a cluster of things you already knew.
