so
i
have
to
write
a
college
application
essay
....about
myself
...and
it
sounds
so
easy
,
but
i'm
finding
it
to
be
the
hardest
subject
to
write
about
...i
can
easily
write
fifteen
-page
papers
on
the
symbolism
in
moby
dick
,
or
the
causes
and
effects
of
industrialization
in
the
late
19th
century
...they
taught
us
never
to
write
in
first
person
, drilled
the
MLA
format
into
our
cluttered
little
honor
-student
brains
...and
now
my
head
is
full
of
memorized
facts
and
rules
and
conventions
of
writing
properly
...but
now
i
don't
know
how
to
write
about
myself
.
