I Just Wanna Be Average

I really enjoyed Rose's piece probably because it was a narrative writing vs. Academic (which i find much more boring). It was a really good story and i felt like Rose did a good job at quickly sucking me in to his old high school years.

The amount of description and background information that Rose gave was just right. He didn't overly bombard us with too much information about his classmates and teachers, but he gave us enough to understand his own little sub culture at the time. Something else that made his essay really great was that we were all able to relate with him. Ive had both dumb classes were you just don't learn very much and classes that even though there challenging you just love to go and learn. It was was definitely a nice change from that other dumb essay we had to read.
