I have a couple of ideas for the project. I see a number of relevant themes in my transcript. Over and over I talk about an idea of reading and/or writing as romantic and the notion that the reality of doing it is very different. I thought it might be interesting to look at that although I'm not sure where that would go. I mention three specific stories where this is the case. The first is a story about preconceived ideas I had about reading a book I took out of the library that proved to be too challenging for me. The second story relates to a term paper I had to write in my senior year, and I selected to write about a book I loved but got very bogged down by the process of the research and got an average grade. The last story (ies) relate a romanticized view of journal writing througout the course of my life that conflicted with the painful reality of it. It appears as if I have a love/hate relationship with writing, particularly with journal writing, which might be something else to examine. There is a clear distinction in my transcripts between a distaste for writing in school and a love for writing outside of school, which is clearly reflected in my choice of language. That might be something else to look at.
