After thinking about it, I've decided to go with the first question that asks to tell a story about your life. That, to me anyway, seems the easiest to tackle....although.. I mean.. its my life, i don't really know where to begin or how to tell a story about myself without sounding pretentious or anything

I'm probably going to do the Zen essay. Given my background (I'm an amateur scholar of Eastern religious thought) I should be able to respond effectively.

"i've had some pretty weird english teachers assign equally challenging essays, so maybe i'm used to pulling my hair out. "

I don't think they're challenging at all, to be honest. Well, to me atleast challenging doesn't equal weird essays. They're just not your normal college essay.

And I also would like to know whether the essays should be more in relation to the writer or if they're more for creative thought...

"do they want to see the essay in relation to self and the traits the writer has, or do they want an essay that is creative and portrays the creative writer???"

Anyone? Anyone?
