Finally a Princess
I can relate to Emily Spjut's when she wrote about having cut her hair to represent Mulan in "Finally a Princess." At a young age my sister and I had always been Dsiney children. My father would bring us home new Disney movies after he had gotten out of work. We had so many, we couldn't find a place to store them all. Disney has and will alwyas be a part of me, but like Emily wanting to be like Mulan, I had always favoritized Belle as a little girl. Now the hair incicendt, well that's a different story. I like how Emily stated "with a snip, snip, snip, my transformation into a noble Chinese soldier..." instead of just simply stating that she cut it off. Reading that section made me relflect back to when my sister decided to give herself a hair cut and chop off my bangs. All in all, reading her memoir made me think back to when obsessing over dinsey princesses was in, and how badly I had always wanted to be one. I really liked how she wrote it. It made it seem as if the reader was a part of the memory. It was really pleasurable to read and I might of laughed at some parts. It was written well Emily and Nice job!
