End of School Essay

For the end of the year everyone in my grade at school has to write an essay. The essay is pretty open-ended, but you have to follow a few prompts. The prompts this year are basically 'How have you changed throughout your middle school years?' and 'What events/people have influenced those changes?' So you can write about anything you want as long as you talk about how you've grown since you were in elementary school.

So why am I writing this on my blog about horses, you may ask. It's because (surprise, surprise) I've decided to write my essay on how horseback riding has changed me and made me a different person than I was when I was younger. I was really excited to start writing because this is something that I'm passionate about talking and writing about, but now that it's the weekend and this essay is due on Monday (yikes!) I'm feeling some pressure and I don't know where to start.

There's so many ways I've changed because of horseback riding, but it's so hard to put it in words! I plan to start writing my essay today, so when I've actually gotten somewhere with it, I'll try and post an update, probably when I'm finished. Hopefully the awesome music of Mumford & Sons will inspire me to write something revolutionary. :) Wish me luck!
