1. What one specific aspect of your paper are you proudest of? Why?
I am most proud of the detail within my paper. The detail perfectly describes the events of the story and builds the imagery for the reader.
2. What was the most difficult aspect of writing this essay? Why?
The most difficult aspect of writing the essay was starting the paper and writing the conclusion. I have difficulty beginning most papers I write, but once I begin my paper I can easily continue the body. Also, I have difficulty ending my papers strong.
3. Imagine that you have a few extra hours to revise this paper. What aspect(s) of the paper would you reword, write, and/or polish? Why?
If I were given a few extra hours I would revise my final paragraph. I would work on finishing my paper even stronger and reword sentences to better the structure of the conclusion.
4. How would you approach such a revision?
I would revise the paper by asking a friend to read and correct my paper. I would take his view of my paper and his corrections to rewrite a paper more appealing to the reader.

Post Expectations
My post expectations for life are very few and likely to change. I do tend to live in the moment and become careless with my future. It is part of who I am but it can be a problem for me in many ways. By living in the moment I forget things that are planned for tomorrow, next week, and so forth. If I want to remember something I usually have to write it down, but most of the time I forget to write it down. Although I have trouble planning ahead for my future and being prepared, I still have future expectations for when I am finished with college.
After college I plan to use my engineering degree, or whatever degree I do obtain, to find a job local. I say that I want a local job because I am not sure what a lot of other states are like. I haven't spent a fair amount of time in a state which interests me. Multiple friends that I share common taste with tell me that I would love San Francisco and California as a whole. I plan to eventually make my way to California and see if it does indeed appeal to me.
After finding a job and an area that I enjoy, I plan to buy a house. Buying a house is something my dad has always stressed because of its increasing value and that it is something that belongs to you. I suppose after a house I plan to invest money and use some as well to enjoy life. I do plan to marry but it is not my priority because of how "random" or "different" marriage is for everyone. I still plan to marry eventually and have children but I don't want to rush it in any way.
These are my "post expectations" and I would advise you that they are subject to change.
