<p>I've asked this before but I was hoping I could get more feedback.</p>
<p>I'm trying to write my essays (I know, it's ground-breaking.)</p>
<p>Let's say you're editor-in-chief of the newspaper, really passionate about art and writing (AP art and show, produced a play) but you really want to eventually go into film/television (have interned for UPN and actor management company). </p>
<p>What do you talk about? I guess I could combine them all theoretically? Should I just choose one of the things I'm passionate about? </p>
<p>My friend who's going to Princeton wrote about how he started the "lunch box club" and he talked about the rules they set up that you could only eat at their table if you brought a lunch box and how that affected him/displayed his character (he's also a genius and one of the coolest people I've ever known). </p>
<p>What are your opinions on these obscure essays that reveal insight into character but not into your passion? (Assuming one could pull it off...) How much should be about your personal voice and how much should it be about something you've done/are passionate about. Sorry for the bombardment of questions but each has been nagging me for quite some time and we have to write a practice essay for our college counselors by... a few weeks ago. Any advice?</p>
