Write Your Way in: Crafting an Unforgettable College Admissions EssayWriting, for most of us, is bound up with anxiety. It's even worse when it feels like your whole future or at least where you'll spend the next four years in college is on the line. It's easy to understand why so many high school seniors put off working on their applications until the last minute or end up with a generic and clich d essay. The good news? You already have the "secret sauce" for crafting a compelling personal essay: your own experiences

Writing, for most of us, is bound up with anxiety. It's even worse when it feels like your whole future--or at least where you'll spend the next four years in college--is on the line. It's easy to understand why so many high school seniors put off working on their applications until the last minute or end up with a generic and clich d essay.
The good news? You already have the "secret sauce" for crafting a compelling personal essay: your own experiences and your unique voice.
The best essays rarely catalog how students have succeeded or achieved. Good writing shows the reader how you've struggled and describes mistakes you've made. Excellent essays express what you're fired up about, illustrate how you think, and illuminate the ways you've grown.
More than twenty million students apply to college every year; many of them look similar in terms of test scores, grades, courses taken, extracurricular activities. Admissions officers wade through piles of files. As an applicant, you need to think about what will interest an exhausted reader. What can you write that will make her argue to admit you instead of the thousands of other applicants?
A good essay will be conversational and rich in vivid details, and it could only be written by one person--you. This book will help you figure out how to find and present the best in yourself. You'll acquire some useful tools for writing well--and may even have fun--in the process.

Get it
Size: 8 Ounce (Pack of 1), Style: Cool Down Lotion
Love this stuff. Best recovery from the sun I have found. I am very fair and even with sunscreen sometimes still get a little burnt. My friends who get tan and had a long day in the sun are quick to grab this from me and use it at the end of the day. I highly recommend this for anyone. It’s cooling and hydrating. Repair or maintenance for your skin, it’s great for both options. Lightweight and easy to apply. Hands down, worth it!

Smells Great and Works Well
Size: 3 Ounce (Pack of 1), Style: Cool Down Lotion
Smells great and goes on really smoothly. Skin felt soft and refreshed after use. It is pretty "liquidy" and can come out of the bottle a little on the quick and messy side, but nothing too terrible.

Works VERY well, NOT sticky, smells AMAZING!
Size: 16 Ounce (Pack of 1), Style: Cool Down Lotion
So... I had sunburn... very painful across my whole back, top of my forehead & the back of my arms. Stupid, I know... USE SUNBLOCK PEOPLE! However, if u don't because u want "a little color" and end up like me, then I highly recommend this after-sun product. It smells amazing and doesn't leave the sticky residue like green Aloe Vera. After rubbing it in, my hands feel super soft. It gives my skin the hydration it needs so I won't peel (and lose the tan I was desperate for). My personal hack... After the sensitivity of the burn calms, I like keeping a bottle in the fridge for that extra cooling sensation. I love this stuff! Sun Bum is a great product... u should definitely try the sunblock tho, it worked where I applied it! I didn't take a pic for obvious reasons, but when u rub it in, it will dry clear.
