Final EIP reflection Over the process of my EIP, the movement has been very dynamic.

I began with one topic which was exciting to me, but when it came time to dig down deep, the information kind of plateaued. This made my momentum come to a screeching halt. After jumping topics to something that still made me happy, I found myself stumbling across controversy and conspiracy- almost like a soap opera! The trajectory of my project has then been a steady support of the fact that the discovery was an amazing aspect to add to our library of knowledge, but it became contorted thinking of the negative side of the topic. I discussed this hardship in one of my daybook entries. My EIP wasnt truly focused on too much secondary research, but rather, to take secondary research and base my observations and outlooks on them. I like making other people think about things in a different light. Im more concerned with taking the normal, and making people think outside the box. I know that thirteen weeks is not really that long of a time period, but I really have reshaped my outlook on writing. I used to not EVER draft a paper- except for the one I turned in! I didnt see value in peer responses. So for my identity of a writer to become shaped based on my experiences this semester is a great addition to the multiple personalities of my writing side. This project has also helped me to realize that defining yourself to length or format is exactly what it says- defining yourself. Go to a piece of paper, take a pen, and write it all out. This is my new procedure. Some could consider this to be anarchy, but I like the revolutionary lifestyle.
