<p>When I write my essay on your choice topic does it have to be about me? Or can I write about a story about the day I was born. Its just an interesting story that I've been told a numerous amount of times over the years. I mean it's about me but not really. What do you think?</p>
<p>It doesn't necesarily have to be about you, but it needs to show something about you. I don't think your idea fits into this.</p>
<p>something that shows who you are, not something that happened to you. its the inside of you they want to see, not the outside where everyone else sees.</p>
