Most Interesting Roommate Letter

Colleges & Universities Stanford University
1

<p>Okay, so I wrote about 3 different drafts for this already (I know, I’m pretty neurotic when it comes to college apps) and I just wondering which idea appeals to you the most</p>

<p>-some story about immigrating to America at the age of 8 and about how i learned English
-random mix of my idiosyncracies/interests: deep love of burritos, my brutal honesty
-my thoughts regarding time travel. </p>

<p>Don’t know which of those^ or anything other topic would be interesting/appropriate enough for this letter. I want to appear interesting and somewhat intelligent without seeming like I’m trying too hard. </p>

<p>You guys want to share what you wrote?</p>

<p>please take this thread at least somewhat seriously :)</p>

<p>I like the second one.</p>

<p>It’s similar to mine, and I got accepted.</p>

3

<p>the time travel one seems interesting, but you can probably incorporate some stuff abotu time travel in the second one; most people do something like the second one i think</p>

4

<p>Okay my only concern for the second one is that I’m talking about way too many things and I’m afraid that I’m not going to have enough depth for each of them.</p>

<p>How many mini topics would you say is a good amount? Maybe 3?</p>

5

<p>ill take a read if you want</p>

6

<p>2nd topic seems most friendly. 3rd could be easily used for intellectual vitality</p>

7

<p>BlueDucky, tsk tsk, brutal honesty?</p>

8

<p>I would talk about time travel in my intellectual vitality essay, but I have something better to talk about there. lol</p>

<p>Personally, I’d love to have somebody honest as my roommate. haha</p>
