I think they’re probably okay, I wrote my fav word essay on egg and how it’s short and snazzy but also represents a lot of potential and related it to my love of baking and farm animals. I wrote my CAS supplement on the infinity mirrors yayoi kusama exhibit in DC and how it challenged my artistic limits and beliefs of the world as we know it.
