Have you ever wondered why it is so hard to write essays in college applications?
How to start? What to write? How to write? What to include? There are tons of questions that have no answer.
Do you know why ?
I'll tell you why - because we do not do anything on our own. We study what “the system” wants us to study. We do extracurricular activities, such as taking part in ceremonies, performing dances on holiday events, or even taking care of our farm at our home, just because we are told to do so. For this reason, we can not show personal value, which simply doesn't exist, in everything we do. However, college admissions want exactly the opposite: do something that you are passionate about and describe it and how it holds personal values.
We fill up the activities list with a bunch of shit that we don't care about and did just for the "tick". I guess, in that way, we are not going to earn spots that we are competing for with other guys with real passion
