I feel as if the author's tone is set in first person and presents a very straight up reading for the story. For example when the author states, "While enjoying an obligatory hot dog...", I find this very straight up and unusual to describe something like a hot dog.

I like the way she described Costco, the words were very descriptive and made the essay interesting. In the essay, ¨Before inevitably being whisked away into a shopping cart, I scaled a mountain of plush toys and surveyed the expanse that lay before me: the kingdom of Costco. ¨

This college essay is different from what I predicted a college essay to be like. I like how the author connected costco to her life and how she constantly compared her curiosity of the items within costco to her curiosities out of costco. I also liked when she compared the ladies over flowing basket and the samples at costco to her interest by saying  "Just as I sampled buffalochicken dip or chocolate truffles, I probed the realms of history, dance and biology, all in pursuit of the ideal cart–one overflowing with theoretical situations and notions both silly and serious."

The author's tone reminds me of someone telling a suspenseful story. She also provides many metaphors and allusions to moments in history. For example, "I was a conquistador, but rather than searching the land for El Dorado, I scoured aisles for free samples."

I liked how the essay was very detailed and had a smooth flow of words when she was describing Costco and telling the things she bought and used. For example, "Costco has endured a steady presence throughout my life. As a veteran Costco shopper, I navigate the aisles of foodstuffs, thrusting the majority of my weight upon a generously filled shopping cart whose enormity juxtaposes my small frame. Over time, I’ve developed a habit of observing fellow patrons tote their carts piled with frozen burritos, cheese puffs, tubs of ice cream, and weightloss supplements."

I like the way that she was very descriptive and i love how everything connected and had a nice flow.

The author's tone made the essay sound great and happy. Her choice of words made her essay sounds as if she is telling you her story. In the essay, ¨My mother’s eyes widened in horror as I jettisoned my churro; the cinnamonsugar rocket gracefully sliced its way through the air while I continued my spree.¨

# data[].attributes.body
What I liked about the essay was how descriptive she was when writing it. She used words that i haven't heard that much like like "While enjoying an obligatory hot dog, I did not find myself thinking about the ‘all beef’ goodness that Costco boasted." I have heard the word obligatory before but I don't know the exact meaning.

I liked how she described Costco as it was in her imagination ¨ I sprinted through the aisles, looking up in awe at the massive bulk products that towered over me. Overcome with wonder, I wanted to touch and taste, to stick my head into industrialsized freezers, to explore every crevice.¨ and how she continued to do so throughout the whole essay

I liked how she described her curiosity about Costco in the text it said, "I sprinted through the aisles, looking up in awe at the massive bulk products that towered over me. Overcome with wonder, I wanted to touch and taste, to stick my head into industrial sized freezers, to explore every crevice."

I liked the way she described costco it made me want to know more about what she was writing. The author stated "As a veteran Costco shopper, I navigate the aisles of foodstuffs, thrusting the majority of my weight upon a generously filled shopping cart whose enormity juxtaposes my small frame. Over time, I’ve developed a habit of observing fellow patrons tote their carts piled with frozen burritos, cheese puffs, tubs of ice cream, and weightloss supplements. Perusing the aisles gave me time to ponder."

I liked that her essay was very different and very descriptive.

# data[].attributes.body
The author used unnecessary descriptive words in this story such as obligatory, unfettered, and lofty.

# data[].attributes.body
What I liked about the essay is that the author used very detailed descriptive words for better imagery.  For example, "...I sprinted through the aisles, looking up in awe at the massive bulk products that towered over me. Overcome with wonder, I wanted to touch and taste...". Thus, showing the descriptive vocabulary to enhance imagery.

The author tone made the essay sound very delightful and it made the whole essay sound great!

Within the essay I got a little confused on where the direction of the essay was going and it was a bit hard to follow like when she went on a tangent about sour cream and nutella saying "I instead considered finitudes and infinitudes, unimagined uses for tubs of sour cream, the projectile motion of said tub when launched from an eighty foot shelf or maybe when pushed from a speedy cart by a scrawny seventeen year old. I contemplated the philosophical: If there exists a thirtythree ounce jar of Nutella, do we really have free will?"

I do not like how short it is.

I describe the author's voice as funny and kinda childish because how she made her whole essay about Costco. Other people would have talking about their life but she decide to talk about her childhood and how Costco changed her.

I would describe her voice as childish and joyful. ¨My mother’s eyes widened in horror as I jettisoned my churro; the cinnamonsugar rocket gracefully sliced its way through the air while I continued my spree.¨

What i liked about the essay is how

# data[].attributes.body
I like this essay because of the way the author speaks in it. Her use of words and the way they're used really sparks something in me. One line that I really enjoy is, "Notorious for its oversized portions and dollarfifty hot dog combo, Costco is the apex of consumerism."

This essay wasnt very long and it could have been broken down into more descriptive paragraphs.

# data[].attributes.body
The authors tone was optimistic and kind of felt like a happy child like feel. When the author was talking about her interest and her unbounded desires it tied the whole essays tone together. The best example in my opinion was when she said, "Managing to break free from my mother’s grasp, I charged. With arms flailing and chubby legs fluttering beneath me, I was the ferocious two year old rampaging through Costco on a Saturday morning."

# data[].attributes.body
What I don't like about the essay is that it took my brain a little minute to adjust to the vocabulary.

# data[].attributes.body
The author's tone was excited so we got to read about what she saw and what she did and what she was thinking when she did it.Just like hoe the author explained, "Perusing the aisles gave me time to ponder. Who needs three pounds of sour cream? Was cultured yogurt any more wellmannered than its uncultured counterpart? Costco gave birth to my unfettered curiosity."

I think she could´ve made it a bit longer.

There is not much that I enjoy about reading this essay but I can say that the topic, (COSTCO), is very unique and very interesting hearing about how I sort of relate to her view of the store.

The authors tone sounded very adventurous.

The only issue I have with this essay is that it is a little short. I particularly enjoy long texts over shorter ones, and I feel that the author could've added more.

# data[].attributes.body
The authors tone is set in first person and it was a straight forward reading but it also felt like a story at the same time. For example, "Before inevitably being whisked away into a shopping cart, I scaled a mountain of plush toys and surveyed the expanse that lay before me: the kingdom of Costco".

I like how the author really made the readers picture everything she was saying. Like when she said "With arms flailing and chubby legs fluttering beneath me..." it was very easy for me to really picture a chubby kid running.

It was kind of throwing me off with the descriptive words.

I didn't like that she used all those descriptive words and was getting confused when reading a little bit.

She had a well thoughtful imagination by her choice of words and she seemed happy.

What I didn't like about the essay was that some of the vocabulary I didn't know but I still got a picture of what the author was conveying.

I would describe the authors tone as engaging and charisma. The reason due to the authors word choices and how structures her feelings and expression into a sentence.

# data[].attributes.body
I did not like how most of the words were too big for me to read.

# data[].attributes.body
Her voice throughout the entire essay was almost kid like. A lot more on her childish side. In her essay she said, "Overcome with wonder, I wanted to touch and taste, to stick my head into industrialsized freezers, to explore every crevice." which is like what every kid feels like doing when they walk into a store.

# data[].attributes.body
I like the way the author expressed her experience as if we were there with her. For example, " With cart in hand, I do what scares me; I absorb the warehouse that is the world. "

# data[].attributes.body
There was nothing that I did not like in her essay. I enjoyed reading about her adventure.

I would describe her voice as playful and cheerful. I think being cheerful in her essay made it even more fun to read. She had a very active imagination.
