I loved Barbie when I was younger (in a way I still do!). I loved playing with them, getting new outfits and other "friends" for my Barbies. I had to have had dozens of Barbie dolls. I had almost everything Barbie, from my Mom’s old “vintage” Barbies to the newest Malibu Barbie, the Barbie dream house to My Size Barbie, everything. I was no doubt a “de-boxer” I could barely wait to get to the car from Toys R Us to open my new Barbie and start playing with her.
After reading this essay I realize how special these Barbie dolls are to some people. I still have all the Barbie dolls from when my sisters and I were little in a giant box in our basement. I had a few limited edition Barbies and Collector’s Barbies. I knew people collected them, but never knew to that extent. This essay made me see that you can write a descriptive essay on pretty much anything. In my opinion the most important part was the authors perspective and thoughts on the subject\, I felt that it gave the reader an “inside look from an outsider’s perspective” to the Barbie Collectors convention world. This essay will help me write my upcoming essay by noting different things the author does; her thoughts worked into the essay, different descriptions and details, the noting of different observations, etc.
