Well, I had 2 long essays, and the rest were the small essays… I went crazy on one long one and one short one, which was probably not a good idea…:

my long essay number 1: It was about my art experience or most specifically, my web graphic novel creating experience… I used this essay (from USC application) on the common application. I made it into USC and none of the common application schools. I guess writing a specific essay is kind of important too…

my long essay number 2: about my imaginary friend (well they wanted me to write about a potential classmate i could learn from;; ) named Fuzzy. Yes, his name was Fuzzy. This was my crazy essay number one. I thought it might be more exciting than talking about some boring person… (<- my friend apprantly did write about some boring person and made it, while i didn’t so, that tells you something, huh?)

and the short ones…: about my love of classic novels, my experience @ Cambodia/Vietnam, what i did on last sunday (i wrote about writing the essay itself @ Barnes and Nobles… and oompa loompas…Haha)… and some art essay that was required of art majors… and i think that’s about it.
