Help, Thanks!

Hey guys. In EA, I didn't write the optional essay, nor give a list to show things that I like in common app. I kinda regret now because I think I have a fair(at least not bad) taste in music/movie/literature. I have been an old-school diehard metalhead for years(didn't mention anything about metal in the commonapp except for playing drums for years) and watched a lot of great movies.
I want to submit a list in the school website, but in the same time I'm afraid such behavior will kinda hurt my chance becuz the school may think I didn't submit at first but 16 days later and I would be procrastinating? It may be a kinda stupid question and doesn't really matter...but I still want to know.
So shall I?

Thanks a lot!

It is well past the deadline, so it might not be a good idea to send it in now. But seriously, don't stress- plenty of people got admitted without writing the optional essay! Good luck

If we both go there, we should totally talk metal together. On the chance I never see you or talk to you ever, check out Devin Townsend. Awesomest man on the planet.

If you get deferred to the RD round, then that would be an appropriate time to make changes, send updates, etc (but all at one time, not several emails, etc).
