<p>Prompt: Virtually all of Stanford’s undergraduates live on campus. Write a note to your future roommate that reveals something about you or that will help your roommate—and us—know you better.</p>
<p>I'd like write about how I really really like to hum. It's going to be more of a creative essay. But what can it reveal about me? I have one thing: it can calm my nerves, especially with the stress in college. </p>
<p>Is there anything else that can reveal or show something about me/ my personality through my quirk of humming? Thanks.</p>
<p>do you perhaps like movies? you can write about how you like adding a bit of background music to your own life</p>
<p>or even just expand on what exactly you like to hum - perhaps it’s a pop song/classical/something you made up. I think you can go into how you diverse your interests are and how you welcome variety etc etc. and then you can launch into an anecdote or something</p>
<p>hope that helps a bit</p>
<p>Is there anything else that can be revealed about your personality through humming? I’m sure there are plenty, but don’t you know the answer to your own question better than a stranger on the internet would guess? But I think talking about humming is a great idea. Seems like you have a sense of humor, so if I were you I’d try to let in shine through - nothing too forced, but just to make use of your own quirkiness, you quirky hummer, you.</p>
<p>totally forgot about this thread. i didn’t look at the advice, but it’s exactly what you guys said. don’t worry i think its better now. thanks anyway.</p>
