Undergraduate / interesting or amusing story about yourself - UGA prompt [8]
Dramatic first essay!! Are you the first grandson? Doesn't that make your being present for his death more important?? More suggestions and pointers for the first essay:
-When Ihad arrived (UPON ARRIVAL), I saw him, motionless, but still breathing. Our gazes met and locked; his piercing eyes stared into mine and I could see the pain within him. (HOW COULD YOU SEE PAIN WITHIN HIM? MAYBE YOU SAW PAIN IN HIS EYES?) Wow, you were lucky to see him right before he died!!
-I am a representational image of my family. (I REPRESENT MY FAMILY)
-It was I who turned on the cremator (WHO OR WHAT IS THIS??) NOT CLEAR
-My family and I then migrated to the river (METHINKS YOU MEAN CROSSED THE RIVER??)
I also liked your second essay, especially this part - made a verb and pronoun correction:
Being uptight and introverted just restrictS my way of living so I have discarded those characteristics. We (WHO IS WE - D'YOU MEAN "I??") have far more in common
