Write from what you know. If you have to ask for stories, you will be on shaky ground writing secondhand and, IMO, what you’re suggesting sounds like perfect fodder for that thread. Best to leave that kind of artifice to a creative writing class and answer the essay prompt from your own point of view. The school is trying to hear your voice and learn something about you. Unless you are extremely skilled with this kind of writing (and perhaps you are), I would advise against it. If you DO decide to use this form, write from firsthand knowledge.
