<p>so i have an essay that i think is pretty good all set, it's about my family and stuff (i think it's fairly humorous), but i think i should display my main interest (piano) in some way... but if i write it now i have a feeling it won't be very good...</p>
<p>so what do you think?</p>
<p>(also, does anyone want to read my essays? please??)</p>
<p>I wrote about my family and childhood. Not a single mention of my passion. </p>
<p>I think you mentioned in another thread that you've won some piano competitions. I think that'll be enough to show that you're dedicated to the activity.</p>
<p>In my opinion, your essay is a chance to show something about you that your application does NOT reveal. I tried to show my thought process and the way I see the world in my essay. I feel that they already know what I do in and out of school, so why not use the essay to show who I really am as a human being?</p>
<p>i'll take a look at it if you want.</p>
<p>ya, college essays are an "opportunity for colleges to see how your mind works," as a college guide states</p>
