The Short Takes

Reed: Short takes can sometimes give us some a little bit more spontaneity or personality than a full size essay they can. All right, so next we get to the medium sized pieces. We asked for two shorter essays, around 250 words, which is usually like one to two paragraphs. The first one is one that everybody writes and then you have a choice among three other topics. So Reed, tell us the first one that everyone's going to write.
