In the process of brainstorming i came up with many ideas but only two that i had information that i could write about. I had just two ideas for my personal essay one was about my grandmothers death and the other was about my first time being away from my mom. I came up with ideas just by writing down what ever i could think of that was a big moment in my life and changed it in some way. I listened in class about the examples that were given i reflected it to my life and got some more ideas.
