<p>hi i just finished my MIT essay to the prompt:</p>
<p>Tell us about an experience which, at the time, really felt like "the end of the world" -- but had it not happened, you would not be who you are today. Describe the process through which you discovered value in the negative.</p>
<p>it's still rough around the edges and at around 650 words but i think it captures my voice. i'll pm if youd like to read.</p>
<p>feedback thru aim is preferred though so if you have a screename please post it and ill just send it through there.</p>
<p>thanks.</p>
