The definition of Identity is the qualities of a person that distinguishes them from others. Some haven’t had the opportunity to let go of the expectations placed on them by others. They choose to conform. I chose to conform, and it something that I regret doing. I should have let people judge, misunderstand,and gossip about me, but I shouldn’t have conformed. I should have been an individual with my own aspirations in life. As a kid, I was taught that since I’m a girl, I have to clean the house…

“Self Portrait in a Convex Mirror” by John Ashbery is a work of convoluted reflections engaging Renaissance painter Parmigiano, his painting “Self Portrait in a Convex Mirror”, Ashbery himself, and the soul.

Throughout the semester “Stand Up. Stand Out. Be Remarkable.,” has been emphasized, but I never really understood it until now. As the class developed, I started to realize that it is the difference between ordinary and extraordinary. I don’t want to end world hunger, or improve the education for those who are economically struggling. I want to do more and be more than just ordinary. I want to be extraordinary and leave my mark on this world. I want to make my legacy uniquely my own. “Veni – I…
