It's difficult to write, because I don't know what to major in yet. I know I want to go to college. I just don't have an idea of why I want to go. ,F: Why not just tell the truth in your essay? ,M: You mean I should write about the fact that I don't know what to do with my life? ,F: Yeah. I mean, I doubt if anyone really knows what career they want to have when they first go to college. You have years to figure that out. ,M: I guess I could write about that. ,F: What else do you need to do to finish your application? ,M: I need 2 recommendation letters. I asked my English teacher and my math teacher. Mrs. Watson turned hers in, but I'm waiting on my math teacher.
