Undergraduate / 'wheelchairs and blankets' - Common application elaboration on one of your activities [2]
In the space provided below, please elaborate on one of your activities (extracurricular, personal activities, or work experience)(150 words or fewer).
I stood by the front door, the cool autumn breeze attempting to ease my frazzled nerves. Countless pessimistic thoughts raced through my mind as I tried to fathom where I was and what I was doing there. It was my first day volunteering at the nursing home. I regret hesitating to take this opportunity for it helped me develop as a person tremendously. By simple pushing wheelchairs and distributing blankets I encountered exceptional people who gave remarkable advice on living life and setting goals for yourself. I am vastly different from the person who stood outside a door, too afraid to approach a new experience. Volunteering at the nursing home has become more than just a routine, but something that I greatly enjoy doing.
Other than grammar, anything that would help it flow better would be awesome too ^^ Maybe a rating out of 10 too? xD I'm so nervous for this application process ):
