<p>Basically, I'm at a lost as what to write my college essay about.
The only prompt that slightly stood out to me was: "Describe a place or environment where you are perfectly content. What do you do or experience there, and why is it meaningful to you?"</p>
<p>My idea was to write about my basement. Im sort of a 'knowledge junkie' i guess - so i often times stay up late on the weekends and sit in my basement trying to learn new things. I watch medical documentaries, TED talks, get lost in wikipedia articles, or watch youtube tutoirals on cool little life tricks.</p>
<p>I'm not sure if this is a lame idea or something that could be a fresh read for the admissions officer. Im kind of drawn to the unconventional nature of it. </p>
<p>I did move to america at the age of 6 when my parents divorced and lived in France for 4 months during my freshman year if those sound like better ideas to you.</p>
