<p>My personal statement is about how I started learning the language of my heritage this past summer by myself. It was something I had always wanted to do (I didn’t think that it could help with apps until a few weeks ago), and the reason why was because I wanted to connect with my heritage and my extended family further. However, I’m not sure how I can write the reason why without it sounding too cliched, like the typical “Why the visit to my homeland changed my life”. Any advice for me?</p>
<p>make it about “your longing to grow more attached with your culture and how the trip opened up your eyes and you saw how much of an impact it had on you resulting in your desire to leran the language”</p>
<p>Honestly its been done before. Really try to focus on a unique angle, maybe be funny?</p>
