<p>Hey guys,</p>
<p>Finishing up the supplements, and while on the Amherst one, although I liked my topic, I suddenly felt like it was not something they were looking for.</p>
<p>The prompt I chose was "Difficulty need not foreshadows despair or defeat. Rather achievement can be all the more satisfying because of obstacles surmounted."</p>
<p>And I wrote about the 2010 sonisphere festival that the volunteer brigade (which i am a part of) helped organize, and how we were pressed by time and things weren't done, but in the nick of time we managed to get the stage up and going for the first band. I liked it, and I felt like it went with the prompt, but now I'm thinking.. it was a collective effort not mine alone. Is that alright, or does it have to be MY achievement alone?</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
