UC prompt 1

<p>Hi! The topic of essay is Describe the world you come from — for example, your family, community or school — and tell us how your world has shaped your dreams and aspirations.
My father is Mongolian and my mother is Korean. I have been living in Russia for 10 years. I want to write about my backround, but I don't know how to develop it.. Guys, do you have any idea?</p>

<p>Well, when I wrote my essay last year for that prompt I wrote about how I went around the world since young because my dad is American/Chinese and my mom is Korean/Japanese. The theme can be cliche-ish but if you add your own voice and taste into it then you will be fine. Maybe write about how experiencing different cultures has developed you.</p>

<p>what are your biggest goals and aspirations? did your background in Asia in some way affect them and how?
suppose i say I want to become a priest, then talk about how religion was a central to life where you lived.</p>
