[quote=Anonymous]Many moons ago, I wrote about how I had reasoned my way out of fears, including my extreme fear that the world would end and judgment day would come (thank you Catholic Church). I used to lay awake at night wondering if every sound I heard was signaling the beginning of the End Times. I wrote that I felt much better after figuring out it was already tomorrow somewhere else in the world. Completely stupid when I look back on it now, but the conviction with which I wrote it was apparently persuasive. I ended up being admitted Early Decision to a very highly ranked school that my guidance counselor said would "maybe" take me off the wait list "at the very end" if I applied. The point is even the most random topics work, and I have heard over and over from admissions officers at my alma mater (I now volunteer) that the authentic voice is what they are looking for.[/quote]
