Ideas and Answers

Three Ideas:



1. When I moved from Milford, NH to Dover, NH to Madbury, NH all in 2 years when I was 10-11 and how this affected my social life and the way I interact with other people.



2. When I went to the Civic Leadership Academy and how this changed my reaction to public speaking and problem solving.



3. When I took acting class my sophmore year in HS and the way it introduced me to improvisation.





What are they about:



1. This is about when I moved twice in a matter of two years to two completely different towns and how I reacted to moving and meeting new people.



2. I went to the CLA and learned a lot about public speaking and realized that I am actually a really good public speaker. I also learned a lot about prolem solving and how to go about getting my ideas out in the open.

3. I took Acting class my sophmore year of HS. The teacher was new to the school and she was actually a professional actress. She introduced me to improv and how it doesn't just relate to acting but also to other things in my life.

Significance:

1. These moves completely changed my perspective on people. I was forced from my friends and forced to make new ones and this changed the way I am.

2. The two weeks I was at the CLA I matured a great amount. I found out things about me that I had never known before. I realized that I was a pretty decent public speaker and that I could solve problems better than I had thought I could.

3. This class showed me that I could improvise very well and think on my feet. At first I thought it was just for acting purposes but then I realized I could use it in my everyday life.

  1. Personally, I have never had to move, so I think hearing about moving and then having to move again not too long after would be rather interesting to hear about, although honestly all of your ideas are good. The moving one just appeals to me the most

  2. The experience moving is typically one that other students can easily relate to. Honestly, all there ideas sound viable as memoir topics. Is there one that sounds particularly interesting to you?
