Undergraduate / "the weekend camping with grandfather" - William&Mary optional essay help. [4]

I agree with Mio on this Danielle. Maybe you could elaborate on what character traits that you have that made or initiated your actions or thoughts in the events that took place during the weekend. This would possibly give more depth to your uniqueness and 'color'. I hope that makes sense.

"Sleep dangled above my head, taunting me, and every time I was about to reach it; some new animal would add his sound to the night song." I am thinking there should be a coma in place of the semicolon, "Use a semicolon in place of a period to separate two sentences where the conjunction has been left out." (grammar book/punctuation/semicolons.asp)

"...on the Delaware River My grandfather pulled his...", I believe you intended to insert a period between the two sentences. Sometimes spell/grammar check doesn't pick up on everything.

Otherwise, as far as the story goes I really enjoyed how you turned the weekend around. This will truly be a time that you and your Grandfather will remember as a special turning point in your relationship. Thanks for sharing this. Good Luck!

Essays / What would you include in a professional portfolio to get a job - advice needed [3]

Hi, I need some advice on how to approach this English essay question
"What would you include in a professional portfolio, and how would you use it to get a job?"

The reason it is hard for me to start is because I have no experience in the degree field I will earn at the end of this Fall semester. Why no experience... I am a 47 year old female dislocated from textiles but received the opportunity to enter college through TAA (Trade assistance program). I had been working in furniture since 1988 (CAD operator) and retail and fast food prior to that.

I am unsure how I would build a portfolio based on my work history. The upside is my GPA being 3.93.

I could really use some advice on the essay. It would not be as hard if I had prior experience in the field I am earning my degree in and if I were younger and had more experience in doing portfolios and the English courses. My paper has a wide page limit spand of 3 - 8 pages.
