Twitterive
Prologue/ReflectionThe twitterive was a lot easier for me this time than it was last time. Last semester, when I had done the assignment the first time, I didn't have anything important or memorable happen to me. Well, not really.
This time, however, there was an event 10 years in the making. It was something that meant so much to me that I was finally able to create a worthwhile twitterive that was both multimodal and important. It was something that meant a lot to me and was very important.
The major difficulty I had with this assignment was finding something worth writing about. Originally, I was going to write about my experience at the dentist where we lost power and had to wait for it to come back on. But that’s boring.
So, having waited to do my twitterive, it was actually a good thing. I had seen The Phantom of the Opera on May 3rd, 2014, and this provided me something worthwhile. Phantom has always been an important part of my life, and I was glad that I had an opportunity to write about it. The only struggle I found was trying to balance the aspect of my panic attack on the train ride and the story of seeing Hugh Panaro, but I think that the final draft of my twitterive shows the idea that I have to fully concentrate on something else in order to forget the panic.
It’s really difficult for me to try and write about my panic attacks because they get very intense. The problem with the train ride was that I had forgotten my medication, and had to deal with the feelings of fear, dread, and, of course, panic. The only way I could was to think about the man I was going to New York to see.
