Help with an MLA citation
Folks, I'm writing a paper currently on manufacturing. I started to go on a few pages about my own experiences with a certain system. I want to cite this properly, is there a way to properly cite personal experience in the MLA format? If so can you share an example? Thanks in advance.

1. I don't think you'd cite it
You're a primary source.

2. Personal experience is not cited in MLA or any other format
Since you are not "citing" anyone else, you don't need to cite personal experience.
