Warmup

This existentialism project is killing me. True, it shouldn't be this hard. But, I guess I simply look at things out of proportion. I don't know how to start my paper, so I'm using this as a "warmup," to get some writing down...even though, unfortunately, I cannot be so casual in my essay.

How does existentialism relate to me? Well, I guess it relates to everybody at one time or another. You could say that everyone is forging their essence and trying to create themselves through the choices they make. Too bad I didn't choose that route. No, I had to choose alienation from others. I thought I had it all figured out until I decided that it wasn't good enough. That's why I need to write the paper before I continue on art portion. And if you are reading this right now and nothing makes sense, I apologize...this is more for my benefit than yours.

Should I start formally? Explain alienation from others and how it relates to existentialism and then launch into how it relates to me? Or should I begin with an anecdote? Hmmm. But I don't want it to be too long. Gosh, thinking is hard. Why am I in this class? Oh, that's right. I like English. Why do I like English? Well, up till this year I thought I was a pretty decent writer. And then it hit me. I need a lot of work. Think deeply. Okay, I'll try.

Well, I guess this was a good warmup. It's not like I'm going to post my personal connection with alienation from others. No, of course not. So, I suppose I'll just go back into my word document and try it again. Be organized but have a lot of detail. Think hard, but don't be confusing. ::sigh::

I wish my brain would untangle itself.
