college essay RANT
[begin rant]
I've decided to write my college application essay on what crohn's has taught me and the obstacles i've overcome. you'd think it would be easy, but i'm so stuck! I can't think of what to write and everything i've written so far is crap. worse crap than when i'm flaring. I realized that what I've learned does not sound like the thing colleges want their applicants to be like. I hate it when other people complain, because I DON'T, and I find it hard to be sympathetic for people who complain... blah blah blah. on the other hand, i do have a fabulous work ethic now that i know i have to get stuff done.... i don't let crohn's define me...... my essay is REALLY BAD! i don't have very good ideas, and my writing is boring.
Another problem is that I really don't like telling people that I have Crohn's because I hate sounding self-centered and attention-seeking like "oh look at me, I have a disease, now pity me..." and that makes it really hard to write an essay all about me and crohn's.
I'M SO FRUSTRATED!!! ARGH!:ymad: :ymad: :ymad: :ymad: :ymad:
