Same Me, Different Me Analysis
The theme that I adopted from the reading was to make a statement and then explain it. In “A Manifesto fro Discomfortable Writing,” Antena made a generalized statement about discomfortable writing and then explained and delved deeper for more understanding and I liked that. The process I used to formulate my response was to first list the things I wanted to talk about and then gave a general statement and explanation. I used this process because writing comes easier to me when I plan the topics put beforehand. One limitation that I faced was that I found was that the topics didn't always connect to one another so my manifesto abruptly jumped so I hope the message is clearly conveyed. Although it is choppy, it allows the reader to get a glimpse of a few of the things that I want to enhance about myself. One choice that I made was to start off each topic with “I always believed that…”. I did this to unify my manifesto because all of the topics are so different. I also chose to add a saying at the end of each topic to sum up my beliefs and wants. These are the sayings that I’m going to use to remind myself what to do when times are hard or I find myself giving up. Through making this response, I learned that I like the person who I have become and want to stay the same (same me), but I also find that I can enhance certain qualities to become better, (different me).
