Would this be too...gimmicky?

<p>I keep a running list of all the interesting terms I come across when reading or whatever, and I want to write my “Why Reed?” essay about how I collect phrases, while incorporating some of them.</p>

<p>The target is an essay that is * personal, specific/detailed, and revealing. *</p>

<p>This idea is fine imho if it meets those objectives.</p>

<p>How does your proposed essay answer the question, “Why Reed?”</p>

<p>I think it’s a great and original idea. I think you should delete it before someone rips it off</p>

<p>That’s actually a great idea, kind of like the famous oxford word essay where you have to write about just one word. But this is better.</p>
