I never prepare essays or stories for English..I don't know why but for me personally, stories always come out best the first time I write them...although that theory could easily change!
I used the wedding picture and wrote about a woman who was raised as a feminist to believe in her own acheivements and distrust men by her mother: a result of her father having abandoned them both before she was born. At her mother's baby shower, she is given a pink bonnet as a present and her mother refuses to let her wear it, to show that her daughter will not be allowed to conform to typical stereotypes of being a woman..or something. Even after her mother dies, the woman cannot let go of her belief in independence and distrust of men, as her mother's picture prominently displayed on her television set is a constant reminder.
She stacks it in the train station, meets a guy who's a doctor, after much thought she decides to go out with him and at this point, she turns her mother's picture facing downwards..the first step of change, in that she is now prepared to change her views about men.
She catches him with another woman who turns out to be his sister...yep I know that part was pretty cliched. They get married and she takes her mother's picture out of its frame and replaces it with their wedding picture, to show that her feminist thinking and distrust of the opposite sex has now changed.
Then finally she and her husband have a daughter and she thinks about her mother and the way she used to be. Holding that thought, she runs upstairs to look through her childhood memorabilia for something she's just thought of giving to her daughter: the pink baby bonnet, showing that she will bring her daughter up differently.
What do you think, ppl?
Wrote about 8 pages here but then only wrote about the minimum number of texts for Section Three.
