College Essay
About a week ago I was at a One to One Fundraiser and there was this older woman who was clearly drunk and blankly staring around the room, all of a sudden he stopped and fixated on me, she ran up and yelled "AMAZON WOMAN." This kind of reaction is not at all uncommon and my essay is going to be about how everyone I meet or see already have many pre-conceived notions in their mind concering who I am and what I do because of my height, before ever speaking to me.

Emma,
ReplyDeleteThis is an HILARIOUS opening to what I've no doubt will be an excellent essay on how your height has informed your world to date. Get writing! I can't wait to read this one!
Dude. Pretty much the best intro you could possibly ask for.
