<p>Thank god we can't do titles for the Common App essays anymore, because I'd don't know if I can think anymore. Anyways, just poured my heart into prompt 2: "Recount an incident or time when you experienced failure. How did it affect you, and what lessons did you learn?"</p>
<p>First draft was 732 words long, but I managed to cut it down to 650. I'm sure it needs more editing than that. And that's where you all come in. Thank you.</p>
