Reflection
My major goal in this essay was to inform people about the history of cat ladies and why they exist in the first place. I attempted to do this by including the first cases of cat ladies, and the science behind it. I also tried to include examples of cat ladies in pop culture to show how we as a society see cat ladies, and how the stereotype has changed over the years.
I definitely struggled with what order to put the paragraphs in. In the end I decided to put them in chronological order, from the start of cat ladies, to how society ses them, to guesses on why people become cat ladies, to cat ladies in popular culture, to the recent science behind cat ladies, to where cat ladies lie now. In the end I think I was successful in the paragraph placement because it shows where cat ladies started and how they got to be the way they were today.
I also think I succeeded in the digital elements of this essay. At first I wanted to do it in a word document, but then found it easier to do on a website maker called Weebly (which by the way is 100x easier to use than Wordpress). This site allowed me to format my thoughts in a easy to read fashion.
This is my favorite of the essays I have written for your class and I really like how it came out. Although it might need some revision, I think it is overall a good essay.
