<p>::sighs:: OK, so I'm trying to figure out how exactly I'm going to write the main essay, and I'm not sure how I should interpret "perspective." I have some "diverse life experiences" as people would call them... particularly my youngest sister who is severely handicapped... but I also have an essay that I've already written that tells a story about sym-band camp and goes into my passion for music and extends that to talk about the importance of being passionate about everything I do in life rather than striving for perfection... because perfection without passion is worthless... and I really, really like this other essay. I mean, it seriously reflects some of my best work, and I'm not sure I can write as good of an essay if I start from scratch and try to tie in some stuff about my sister. Can "perspective" = "passion for what I do" or is that not quite what they are looking for? Or is this supposed to be really open-ended and this will work ok?</p>
<p>Thanks for putting up with my paranoia. : )</p>
