Wrote one on prompt 1 that I think is original and humorous, but does not (I believe) show a different writing style or ability

Wrote one on the Waldo prompt that is more about the rhetoric and writing style. Also original, but lacking the more humorous approach.

Not sure of which to send - my common app essay was funnier, and I think that’s just my personality. But I feel like the Waldo prompt is an opportunity to show admissions another side/creative writing style and ability

Any thoughts? I know it’s vague since you can’t compare my essays… =/
