<p>hello. i've started to write my essay and its in a third person point of view. its about me finding my purpose in life by recalling old memories that describe me best. it talks about how i won contests through determination and how i tutored my brother and i describe myself a lot in third person in this essay. does it seem risky or pretentious? i am most certainly not a pretentious person and i dont want it to sound that way.</p>
