Easy Reading

This is my first ever-essay thread so I decided to smart small, this is just my "what my activity means to me essay." I wrote it at two in the morning last night, and thought, hmmm...this isn't terrible. Wanted to know what you guys thought. Be as critical as you deem neccessary.

I would really appreciate any reviews, especially from already college students or parents here! thanks!

I am a junior, so you know.

I wrote my essay at 2 AM too. Sent it to all my colleges. I wonder what they thought about it. I wrote about an experience I had that night with my friend and how it made me think back to the time I saved a man's life who had a stroke. I hope they like it.

this has been a pretty contoversial essay. Some of you have said its been great and poetic, others have said that it needs to be re-worked or scrapped. Anyone else have any input?

I personally like it...but then again its my essay.
