Reflection on Victor's Daze



I found Victor's piece "Daze" to be extremely interesting to read. Whilst reading his essay, I felt as if I were with him on each of these days. The way in which he expressed himself through the words he used and the inner thoughts he exposed to readers allowed me to feel comfortable and close to him on an audience vs. author level. As an avid, daily MoJo dining hall go-er as well, I was able to relate with Victor in many of his scenarios. Victor was able to enrapture my attention throughout the entire piece because he did not stick to a single topic for lengthy periods of time. What I liked about "Daze" the most was that in just seven pages, he was able to compact a lot of his thoughts clearly and each page of his essay was embellished with a lot of detail, information, and substance. I believe that Victor's journey was original and contrary to the average journey that is so typically summarized by "i went to" and "i came back."
