I intend to write about my experience as a native american from a southwestern tribe and living in suburban Ohio. It will be about how I have always thought of myself in the society as just another kid in a predominantly white school system, and how I felt absorbed into their culture, yet I have been discovering lately that I have special traits that are often associated with the Navajo people and how they have nurtured my abilities to think and perform tasks in unique and different ways. I don’t know if this is too cheesy to write about. I will greatly appreciate any input. (This is for the Common App Essay Q #1)
I think it could definitely be interesting. But, like all topics, what you write and how you write it matter much more than the actual topic itself. But yeah, I think you have a good start.
