Essay topic okay?

<p>For the common app essay about a significant experience I'm considering writing about one of my experiences working for a vet. We tried hard to save a sick baby goat, but the goat ended up dying in the end. It was really significant for me, and it make me realize things about who and what I want to be, but is it too morbid? Would colleges frown upon it?</p>

<p>I think it would be a great topic to write about. They want to get to know you, and it sounds like you could give great insight into your personality.</p>
