Stuck between two totally different essay topics

College Essays

<p>I'm beginning to write my college essay now, and I've so far come up with two completely opposite essay ideas. Both are subjects that I hold close to me. My two options are:</p>

<p>1) My love for reading and how it has helped me to discover my desire to learn.
-or-
2) How having three siblings with epilepsy (and learning disabilities) has taught me to take nothing for granted.</p>

<p>I plan on pursuing something in the science field, if that helps to put anything into perspective.
Which essay would you rather read?</p>

<p>^^^I agree with the above. The first one sounds very banal to me and I feel that you could make a much more meaningful/significant essay with the 2nd topic. </p>
