Question: Can someone tell me what they think of this self-portrait to a university I've just written is like!?
I cannot say at what point a person begins to question there surroundings, but question we do!. In this instance I've often wondered what it takes to live a life of fulfillment, is it money and family, food and safety or home and prosperity!.

Recently though I feel that I've come to my own realisation that its no one thing - but that -it's each and everything!. Anything that can pull someone from the doldrums, whether it be a parents newborn giving them a new sense of life, to a newfound relative can sometimes be satisfaction enough!.

Indeed when one's spirit is crushed, the little things, all the insignificant moments we never thought much of can suddenly relight embers of hope, from a firm handshake to a shared smile!.

In this respect I feel the same way about education!. Working tirelessly away at a desk can, to some, seem tedious and irrelevant in the greater scheme of one's whole life, but then to me if this is what they feel, then I beleive that these people are the same individuals who neglect the responsibility of their own chance at life, and in turn by doing so, neglect the fabric of life itself, by failing to see and find all the joys in every situation!. I myself feel that I could never make the same judgement without feeling a sense of guilt!.

If I failed to realise what a chance to study at university meant I'd be simply - im my opinion - failing to see the bigger picture!. I know that a university degree can gain me employment, lend me the chance to intereract with a wide range of people, I might otherwise have never met and stimulate something I actually feel strong about:writing, and engaging with film!.

But whilst I know all these things, I also know that employment can gain me money, which in turn can give me a roof over my head, food to survive and finances to help anyone I wish!. I truely know the value of a degree!. From this point of view I already know the power and fulfilling nature of getting to do and learn something that focuses all my interest such as creative writing, and studying film!. Two things which in the greater scheme of things, that I certainly don't fail to realise could have an enormous impact on my life!.

That outcome by it's very nature is something, that I could never fail to realise the importance and implication of, an outcome that can give me, my
own self-fulfillment!.

THE END tell me what you think can rate out of 10 if you want, thanks!.

Yes this is really good I would give it 10/10 basically because you are selling yourself!. This is basically the kind of things you need to write to sell yourself to uni!. That's what I did and I got in :D!. I know some people will think you are being OTT etc but you aren't! basically thats what they are looking for - afterall they wouldn't want a boring individual doing a creative course would they!?!?!? good luckWww@QuestionHome@Com

I have read your self-portrait and after a few lines I thought it was ott and boring!. It would be better if you could condense it to about three shorter paragraphs!. Www@QuestionHome@Com
