<p>For the CommonApp essay, I stuck between two choices:</p>

<p>1) About this volunteer work I do where I go to downtown and feed the homeless and listen to their stories. It made me realize how each person had a past normal life.</p>

<p>2) About how my dad had to move to another state because to make a business there. I would emphasize on the financial hardships I encountered. </p>

<p>Any suggestions on which one I should write about</p>
