Statement of purpose help

<p>Hey :) I'm applying for an MA in translation/interpretation, but the S.O.P. is keeping me from submitting my application. I'm stuck! There's not much that I could write as far as research, since I don't think research is part of the degree and I'm feeling awkward writing a lot about my personal experiences in relation to my interest in languages/cultures. Would anyone be willing to read over my S.O.P. and give me some pointers on how to go from here? I have a few paragraphs and some random sentences of where my train of thought could go, but I honestly don't know what to write for an essay like this! Thanks :)</p>
