<p>Alrightyy then.</p>
<p>I have spent about 4 weeks writing the greatest essay of my life on my youth idol football player Thierry Henry</p>
<p>Now, i kno what you're thinking... oh brother this kid is writing about another athlete.... wrong!</p>
<p>the whole point of my essay is to elaborate on every action Henry had that did not involve a soccer ball, including his stand up speak up campaign to eliminate rascism in the FIFA Administration.</p>
<p>I compared his leadership and courage to what I've done within my high school, including the 8 extra curriculars i do plus my determination to keep my GPA/SATs in par for good schools. </p>
<p>I also elaborated on how he opened me to soccer, not as a sport, but as a language.</p>
<p>Conflict: I don't know if you guys keep up with the 2010 World Cup... but today Thierry Henry basically cheated Ireland out of the world cup by giving a handball at the 103rd minute of overtime to which Gallas would score a goal. The ref didn't call it and now Henry is basically considered Europe's biggest cheat..... lol</p>
<p>should i be worried... personally i can think of a million reasons that justify Henry's action, and he was a man about it by admitting what he did was wrong.
In my opinion, like in all sports, its the ref's fault for not calling it... not the player's..</p>
<p>but what if the guy that reads my application is erm.... Irish??? or just a Henry hater.. lol</p>
<p>please give me some unbiased feedback on what to do.. or if any of you have been in similar situations.</p>
<p>Chances are probably going to follow my essay, because i literally poured my soul into it, but i would love your insight.</p>
