Hm... privacy. This is actually an interesting subject, having come to college. I used to think that my room was the most private place that I had, but I now share a room with someone I have known for only about a month. I feel like I have lost some of my ability to be my private self.
Now, my private self and public are not necessarily different people, it's just that there are some things that I keep to my private self most of the time. For example, I play guitar and write songs, but it's not something I do for other people. Writing songs is for me, so I rarely share the experience with others, so I often find myself finding time while my roommate is out of the room so that I don't lose that part of my private self.
Another point this brings up, is how I think there is the ability to be private with others. I am able to be my private self with my family at my home in Dayton, OH. I also have a couple of friends who I am able share private things with. They're part of my comfort zone, and I feel like I can share that part of my life with them.
I'm not sure what else I can say about privacy, but I would like to add that I am really intrigued by this book we are starting to read.
