<p>Hey guys... I am looking for ideas for the second essay of what I can bring to the UC.</p>
<p>WHat did u guys write about</p>
<p>i wrote about overcoming child abuse and two eating disorders while i was growing up. i wasn't really telling them my life story becaise i was reflecting on my experience of being honest with myself and opening up in order to lead a women's organization i started and to realize that that horrible time in my life served as an invaluable learning experience. </p>
<p>by the way, i'm at berkeley now.</p>
<p>Sorry if I thread jack but does anyone have the link to forum where a select few applicants of ICY League schools posted their personal essays?</p>
<p>BTW, highschoolda what is your name? I'll be looking for you on Friday in class :)</p>
