Wondering if this should be included on the app because it may be an interesting footnote, but almost entirely irrelevant and unimpressive; last year me and my friend started singing the national anthem every day at lunch for over 100 days in a row. We are now almost in pitch and were given the opportunity to sing at a football game for our school from what started as a kind of joke.
Recs and essay should be good. Others in my class are applying but none ED.
Thanks for reading
