Does This college essay make me look like a jerk?

Ah… don’t copy that. Not a winner, especially the repeated use of the same adjective.

@intparent There was an ulterior motive, it wasn’t my point. I don’t know about you, but to copy something in this situation could be called plagiarism.

Don’t hijack the thread.

I don’t think that’s a good idea. A college essay should be about something that affected you deeply, usually in a good way.
