So for one of my college essays, I’m gonna write about how volunteering at the animal shelter showed my character, because I went above and beyond to help in everyday that I can, and even gained access to parts of the shelter that “normal” volunteers couldn’t go in. It just felt good to be of need. But how can I describe it, without sounding like a guy with a stick up his ass? Lol
