The thing I liked most about writing a personal essay is that you were the source for the paper. This was the only time when I didn't have to do any reasearch. It is much easier to write because it is all about you and is was easy to give details. It is also nice because then when people read your paper, they know something about you. Usually it is something that was important in your life. Its a good way for people to get to know you.
The thing I didn't like about writing a personal essay was that I could have kept writing and writing. The requirements were three to four pages. If I was allowed to, I could have easily spread that story out into five or six pages. That way I could have provided even more detail. I wrote about a bad experience so it was kind of hard to write it down on paper and remember everything that happened to me. That was my choice though. I could have done a good memory but didn't.
