I thought about how I would attack as I paced from corner to corner, my head as vacant as an empty bottle. The crumpled-up drafts on the floor just added to my nervousness, but I needed to write a 'Why Dartmouth' essay. How? I had no idea.
Talking about two things I did outside of my classes and extracurriculars this week: Hiking Gile mountain and the Dartmouth Zoo!
