Please Critique And Revise My College Essay? I’m Scared That It Might Be Bad And That I Won’t Get Into College?


Please help me to point out the positives and negatives of my essay. Be honest and harsh if necessary.
The ____’s are places where I am still trying to come up with something to say.
I’m still concerned about these things:
– Grammar
– Fluidity
– Content
– How it transitions from the first to second paragraph seems funky
– How to effectively continue – the main purpose is supposed to be the challenges of being an entrepreneur at 16
and just my transitions in general…
Ever since my childhood, I have always been passionate about art, in all of its versatile and varying forms. From the days I spent teaching myself how to braid hair at the age of five so that I could practice creative hairstyles on my grandmother, to the hours I spent awestruck in front of a glowing computer screen designing birthday cards for my friends in elementary school, this certain passion of mine had grown immensely at such a young age. However, like all the other children at that time, I dreamt of becoming something extraordinary, like an astronaut, an archaeologist, or a part of the FBI. It wasn’t until the very beginning of my teenage years that I realized that the only thing that had been with me throughout my entire life was art. Amidst all of my peaks and valleys, it had always been there in the forefront of my life. So I pursued it.
By the time I was twelve, I found my true calling, my niche in the art world. Graphic design. It was the perfect combination of my love for all mediums of art and my growing appreciation for computers and the digital age.
During the summer between my junior and senior years of high school, I combined my ever prevalent passion for art, my inordinate thirst for knowledge, and my intensifying curiosity of “the real world”. I became an entrepreneur at the age of sixteen.
Sixteen was a ____ time of my life. It was a time where I _____. At sixteen, I learned how to drive. At sixteen, I became the editor of my high school’s yearbook. At sixteen, I started my own graphic and web design business, Beauxlent. At sixteen, I turned this challenge into an opportunity.

What Places Would Be Interesting For Me To Live In?


I was wondering what countries and/or states in the U.S. would be places I could happily live in. I need a place that has nature, definitely must include beaches, somewhere where buildings and cars don’t dominate everything, but I don’t want to live in the middle of nowhere either. The people generally should be friendly, open-minded, and welcoming to everyone, including vistors. There must be some degree of culture, like art, sports, etc. It has to be a place where it’s not that difficult to be a vegan. It hopefully doesn’t have an extremely corrupt government, where citizens have a say in what happens. I don’t like extremely cold or hot weather, but I don’t mind at all a bit of snow, rain, sun, etc. I kind of actually like seeing “the four seasons.” I apologize this is very long, but I would love to be somewhere I feel like I could call my niche. Also, I do not see myself ever living in California and Hawaii. Don’t ask me why, but it just doesn’t feel right there for me. Thank you again. 🙂
