i feel like im slacking for my college app.


Question Posted Tuesday October 6 2009, 10:45 pm

i want to be a writer, and go to a literature school of some sort that majors in all that good stuff.
unfortunately, i dont really have anything that interesting that i could put on my college application. i dont stay after school, i dont do community service, i dont do sports (mainly because i just hate them). im not on the school newspaper (i think i missed my interview time...), and nothing will make me stand out for college.
anything i could do that would help me out here?

Have you done any volunteering at all, even something that was just one time? Did you belong to a church group? Did you ever help organize a school event?

Even if you just did things once, you can put them there. That is what a lot of my community service was.

It still isn't too late to join clubs. Join a few this year, and then in your essay you could write about how you finally found things that you wanted to do, and now you are really passionate about them. What college wouldn't want someone who not only tries new things, but has already found something that he/she really likes?
