Oftentimes the best essay ideas come out of nowhere- while you're in the shower, or strolling through the park, or reading someone's blog post, or even just before you're about to go to bed and turn the lamp switch off. I'm thankful for these random bursts of inspiration, as these essays are the ones that are usually most naturally written and least mechanical. Staring at a blank word document desperately racking your brain for creative ideas = super unproductive.
In other exciting news, I'm looking at a lot of gap year opportunities next year! Of course I'm still finishing my college applications, but once I receive my acceptances (fingers-crossed!), I plan to defer admission by one year, if my gap year opportunities work out. I'm hoping to perhaps study abroad in Germany, Russia, Turkey, Macedonia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Morocco, South Africa, Thailand, Indonesia, or Malaysia! Traveling is one of my greatest passions; I feel so strongly about it that I even crafted one of my supplements around the idea of cultural exchange.
