PLEASE read what I would tell my roommate.
This one is for the Stanford transfer essay. It's about 13 lines... and I have to shorten to about 10 lines. It's quirky too.

I read it. Pretty good, but you should leave out the part about night terrors. Also, what's with the explicit mother fantasies? Paging Dr. Freud, lol.

Nice work!

Hey, submitted my Stanford app as well and I was wondering how others handled this prompt - it left a lot of room for creativity but I'm not sure I used it all too well.
PM if u still have it.
