<p>I'm writing an essay on prompt #1, "Some students have a background or story that is so central to their identity that they believe their application would be incomplete without it. If this sounds like you, then please share your story."</p>
<p>I'm writing about how for six months after my parents divorced, my mother became absentee and I had to take care of my two sisters and how that point in my life helped me become who I am today. </p>
<p>My essay needs <em>a lot</em> of work. It needs to sound happier and it needs to flow better, but I don't really know how to do it. :/ I'm pretty much stuck right now with this essay and have no idea what else to write about.</p>
<p>So if you could look over my essay and give me ANY tips to make it sound better, I'll PM it to you!</p>
