[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is a kid on YouTube who is an adopted boy from Ethiopia who really likes to crochet. He has a huge online following and has been on the Today show etc. He designs patterns and has an endorsement deal with one of the yarn companies. I don’t think he is doing it to get into Harvard but I am sure he would if he applied. He also donates most of the money he earns to an orphanage in Ethiopia. That to me is a “pointy narrative”, passion project. And it is really sincere, not manufactured.[/quote] The question is, did he have to take it to that extreme? Would it be OK if he just had that passion project, had a club at school? Teachers knew about it and did some thing in his community? Why does everything have to be so so big? This whole notion of impact I think has gotten out of control. They’re 17 years old. Do they really need to run an international operation?[/quote]
