Write a narrative essay on “Upset Expectations” reflecting on an expectation someone has had for you.

Assignment: In the “Upset Expectations” narrative, your goal is to reflect on an expectation someone has had for you, you have had for yourself, or you have had for someone else that has played a role in your life somehow. Maybe it was an expectation that caused you to make a major life change, or see the world or a certain person differently. What people made you aware of this expectation? What does this expectation mean to you? How valuable is it that you meet the expectation or defy it? If you have met that expectation, what would you be like today if you had not? How has it shaped who you are now? Are you still trying to meet that expectation or defy it? What were the surrounding events that occurred when you met or defied the expectation? In this assignment, you will explore the part of your identity that is immersed in expectations. This exploration will take place in a narrative format, meaning a story with a beginning, middle and end.
