<p>i’m not sure how it isn’t possible to show you personality through this essay! part of the reason this choice is difficult is that you can go so many different routes, and the admissions people aren’t looking for one specific thing. they just want to know about your ideal dinner, and if you write about your ideal dinner, you undoubtedly will reveal some of your values/personality. talking about your diverse cultural background and how it relates to your opinions/friends is a good topic to choose because your opinions are obviously part of your values and you are clearly proud of where you come from, which is actually more rare than you might think.</p>
<p>i wrote my essay on this one too, but i went a completely different way. i invented a table that spins so you can talk to different people around the table throughout the night b/c i always hated being stuck next to the same people at a dinner table. i also eat about 3 meals a night (one at like 5 with my friends, my family dinner around 9 and then leftovers with my older brother at like 1), so i wrote about those three different types of dinners and included bits of conversation about each. so i ended up talking about the 3 different aspects of my personality while also showing a little bit about what i value.</p>
