Diane Cole's Essay

One time I was sitting in a class in high school when a group of kids near me started making racist jokes. This isn't an unusual situation in high school. I didn't say anything because I wasn't apart of the conversation, and I didn't want to get in their business and tell them what to do. After reading Cole's essay, I know I should have said something to them then, or privately after class. If more people would actually speak up, these kind of situations wouldn't have to be a common thing.

My Narrative Essay...

I'm thinking that my narrative essay will be about me being very cautious in life. I chose this because the experience that goes along with that was one of the first to pop in my mind. I feel as if I could write the best essay with that experience. In my essay, I'm most likely going to talk about how I fell off a horse as a child, and so now in my life I tend to be pretty cautious about almost everything. I think this essay will be a fun and fairly easy one for me to write.
