Which Of These Should I Write About For My College Admissions Essay?

admin — Fri, 20 Nov 2009 01:57:27 +0000

I am answering this question:
A range of academic interests, personal perspectives, and life experiences adds much to the educational mix. Given your personal background, describe an experience that illustrates what you would bring to the diversity in a college community, or an encounter that demonstrated the importance of diversity to you.
I’m an ex child star, so I was thinking that I could write about a bunch of “experiences” I have had…like..when I had to join a circus to hide from my dad’s psychotic cellmate…and when I developed aplastic anemia and almost died….and when I was lost in the middle of the Atlantic after the captain of my boat committed suicide and shot a hole in the boat so I would die too, but then i was miraculously rescued by a cruise ship….haha, but then at the end say something about how I’m an actress. =D
ORRR
I could talk about the “people skills” I have developed from starting out in the professional world at the young age 3 and staying with it until I was about 14. …while also moving around from ca to ny to fl to va. Ive never been to the same high school twice, but since I’m so skilled at handling new situations and new people, its very easy for me to adjust and make friends, etc. ….and also, I have lived in every different cultural world of the US…..the south, the east coast, the west coast, the north, northeast…..and ive traveled to just about every state, so I’m very well rounded in that department.
OH GOODNESS! IDK…if both of these suck, let me know. Do you have any ideas or suggestions 4 me? ANYTHING is appreciated as this is due in a few hours. (I know I’m a procrastinator. lol)

Does Anyone Think That Todd Could Have…and That Is What Tea Is Hiding?

admin — Wed, 18 Nov 2009 01:49:21 +0000

Does anyone think that Todd could have stage the death of Brendan (he died at birth) the child the Blair had with Patrick Thornhart? He would be younger then Starr I believe but they might age him to older remember he was the baby that when Starr diagnosed with aplastic anemia and needed a bone marrow transplant the baby was going to be a match but after he died Alex Olanov was able to be a match. Anyway Todd had the hole baby switch thing down and he is evil enough to do something like that plus he walked in on Blair and Patrick when they thought he was died, this mad him mad and he was going to kidnap Starr then too and Blair was in a Coma because of the car accident that Kelly Cramer cause. Tea was married to Todd )because he paid her off) during this time and she would know the truth and that is what she is hiding???

I Gave My Baby Up For Adoption 2 Years Ago. It Was An Open Adoption With My Now Ex Sister In Law.?

admin — Sun, 15 Nov 2009 01:42:25 +0000

We were getting along then she got mean. In the adoption papers it said I was entitled to visitation and photos. Thats why it was open. She had aplastic anemia so I wanted to give her a chance of being a mother.Is there any thing I can do to force the visitations and photos? I would have never done it but I loved her then she turned on me. My baby is two now and I only held her once, when she was first born. What can I do? Is this legal?

Something To Be Aware Of If You Want To Get A Ferret Please Read!?

admin — Fri, 13 Nov 2009 01:50:20 +0000

Experienced ferret owners will allready know this, but It is surprising that not many people do, I didnt before I looked into getting a ferret.
I wanted to write this for people to help in someway!
All ferrets should be fixed before they reach sexual maturity as this will drastically reduce their odour (IT GOT RID OF MY BOYS ODOURS!) and it will extend their lives.
*IMPORTANT*
Female ferrets go into heat in their first spring (generally in February) and they will remain in season until successfully mated. If mating does not occur, the females will succumb to aplastic anemia and die a most painful death. You will greatly increase your female ferret’s life span if you have her fixed before this should happen.
Take care xx

Nitric Oxide Deficient Blood Transfusions. Any Help For That Deficiency?

admin — Mon, 09 Nov 2009 01:57:31 +0000

My dad is getting blood transfusions for anemia. I think it’s aplastic anemia, but I’m not sure. He has to get them every 4 to 6 weeks. Decided against the Aranesp. Apparently blood given for transfusion is deficient in nitric oxide. Does anyone know of any natural means to encourage nitric oxide production in the body? Exercise? Deep breathing? Supplements? I kind of assume there’s no medication, but if there is I would be interested in knowing about it, though I couldn’t be much more jaded about medication (because of the side effects) than I already am. Excuse me if this sounds ridiculous in any way, but I don’t know anything about this, so… that’s why I’m askin’! Thanks very much.
