Essay Topic (entry 1)

For my essay topic I chose to write about a equine competition that I rode in. let me give you a little outline of my topic. This event took place in Georgia. For me it was one of the defining moments of greatness it my life. In the essay I'm going to talk about all of the hard work and training and events that lead up to this show, and how they played and important part in the end result. Figuring out a topic to initially choose was a challenge for me because I was unsure of what I wanted to write about. After a lot of thinking, and a few good suggestions I came to the conclusion to write about my experience at the horse show I competed at in Georgia. One of the initial challenges was picking a topic that I could write about for more than one page, I think I have solved that problem with the topic that I have selected for this essay assignment. In this essay I hope to work though the all of the events prior to the show that where significant in relation to the event, and perhaps even the effects the event has had on my life in present time. My goal with this essay is to explore the event, and how it affected me as a human being. My questions about my topic would be: did this event change me in a fundamental way. If so, how and why. In the true definition of an essay, I will attempt to uncover the answers to these questions, as I reflect upon my experiences.
