Our second assignment for the class was referred to as a “re-purposing” assignment. \u00a0Why re-purposing? \u00a0Well, we were supposed to take an old piece of writing (from one of our other college classes) and change it to address a different audience.<\/p>\n
For this assignment, I chose to take a very personal essay from my English 125 (IE, intro college writing) class and turn it into something that addresses tough decisions and death in general. \u00a0The original source (which felt too personal to be just a sub-tab) was a personal narrative that told the story of my sister passing away. \u00a0The re-purposed version shifts the focus from strictly personal to broad-spectrum with only the occasional personal anecdotes.<\/p>\n"}
