<p>Hi guys.
I'm applying to a bunch of US colleges but as an international student, quite honestly, I feel lost. Lost as in a sea turtle trying to find its way through a desert lost. So I did the common app essay to start with but, quite honestly, I'm not sure if I wrote is what is expected or if I'm straying too far from the appropriate thing.</p>
<p>Soooo I was hoping you could read my essay and tell me whether or not I'm on the right track, give your opinions and stuff. I'd be REALLY grateful, I just don't know where I'm standing right now.</p>
<p>So basically: any takers on the 'please read my essay' proposal? Thanks in advance.</p>
