<p>I wrote my Common application essay on the question "How has community made you who you are?" and discussed Cross-country and the ice baths. It may sound strange, but my teachers and peers liked it. My Pomona essay was on fun and I wrote about pictionary, the Perseid Meteor shower and getting yelled at by the police haha.</p>
<p>One of my teacher recs said that "There are few times in teachers careers that we meet someone who embodies the qualities of an ideal student: reflective, curious, open-minded and open-hearted, hardworking...etc."</p>
