Found an old essay. Which topic sounds better?

College Essays

<p>Long story short: I was going through my files to find my common app essay. During the search I found this year old file named "college essay." Apparently I woke up one night and just wrote what I thought would be a good college essay, but read it the next morning and forgot about it, because it sucked. But I just reread it and it's not half bad. I have another one already written, which do you think would be more interesting? </p>

<p>A)Essay about me writing a journalism article entitled "The Real You:How Race Effects Your Daily Life." I talk about getting confusing answers, and briefly touched on what my race meant, and how it effected my life. The conclusion was that everyone is trying to find their real self and race was just a factor in find their real self. </p>

<p>B)Based around the quote "Sometimes it's the lessons we weren't meant to be taught that are the most important." I talk about trying to figure out why I joined clubs. Conclusion is that i joined for various reasons, and form each I learned something from life (explained each thing). I didn't become the best, but I learned something from life. </p>

<p>Which do you think would be more interesting based on these?</p>

<p>I really like the quote for the second one but I can’t really see how it connects to joining clubs. The first one sounds really personal and I like the fact that throughout your experiences, you make a conclusion on race in general. I also admire the title of the article you wrote as it seems very professional. As of now I’d think the first one would seem more coherent as long as you can make it stand out from the obvious (which probably depends on your experiences).</p>
