Okay guys, this is my Brandeis supplement...The prompt is: Imagine You Are To Wear A Costume For An Entire Year
I have a compulsive need to make people laugh. Therefore, if I were to dress in any costume, the most logical choice would be that of a clown's. Now I say "logical" because, sadly, I have a massive phobia of clowns; I can't even approach one with my request for a balloon animal, let alone dress up as one. Well, with my dreams of being a clown and spreading laughter shattered, I guess I will devote my time to vanquishing evil then. And who better to do that as than Batman? I can picture myself now, perched on the rooftops of Gotham City and looking incredibly awesome with my cape fluttering behind me in the wind. The Batsuit and I would really be a match made in heaven if I could just keep myself from casting my mind back to how hot it would get inside this latex-bound prison. I am pretty sure I would spend less time fighting crime and more of it fighting back the urge to scratch myself.
Having contemplated a plethora of choices, ranging from Winnie the Pooh to Barbie, I have come to the realization that, at the moment, I just cannot decide upon any one costume. The problem, I now understand, isn't inherent in any of the costumes themselves; I am simply unable to envision a future where I have to don the same outfit day in, day out. Although many would dismiss it as evidence of my capricious nature, I consider it a blessing that I haven't ever warmed to the idea of confining myself to just one pursuit, and thereby allowed myself to miss out upon the amazing path of self-discovery that I am now treading. As clichéd as it may sound, I love to wake up every morning knowing that I might learn something new about myself, revel in a passion that had been hitherto unknown. Of course, it could be all that, or just the fact that I am a huge claustrophobe.
I was just having fun in the first paragraph but i hope that the second paragraph shows a bit of introspection and insight into my character....Do you guys think it's too frivolous or does my message come across well enough in the end??? I would appreciate any help and i wud be happy to look over your work...THANKS A LOT
