Short Answer Critique and Topic Help

<p>So, first of all, would anyone be willing to read my short answer response about musical theatre (I tried to incorporate humor, but I’m not sure it comes across)?</p>

<p>Also, I’ve changed my commonapp essay topic about six times. My latest idea: in response to the “influential person” question, I may write about my mother…like how I attribute my work ethic and desire to study law to her. I’m worried that this is too cliche, though., My mother grew up in poverty, vowed never to subject her family to that life, and payed her way through college while single-handedly raising a family. My previous topic was about human rights activist Aung San Suu Kyi and how, through doing a research paper for NHD on her, inspired my passion for human rights and desire to eventually practice human rights law (my only issue is that it seems like something I should be able to tie back to my ECs, and they don’t really relate). Should I switch back?</p>
