The summer of 2017, was without a doubt, the most boring two months that I can remember. Not to say that I didn’t do anything over the summer, just that I remember the days where I was stuck at home more than the few that I was actually away on vacation.

How I narrowed down my essay topics

In school, we looked at sample essays for college. Many of them are beautifully written inspirational, life changing moments. As I read over them, I thought to myself "What will I write about?
