MIT Supplemental Writing: Something you do for the pleasure of a busy life.

We know you lead a busy life, full of activities, many of which are required of you. Tell us about something you do for the pleasure of it. (100 words or fewer)

Music and Sports are my two darlings when it comes to recreate myself. After hours of routine studies and assignments, simply picking up my guitar, playing it, and listening to the music I've created rejoices me-orgasmically; moreover, I feel even more proud after manipulating those recordings-through (Adobe) multimedia applications-and sharing them among friends and family.

I usually play Chess, Soccer, Cricket while I'm on the go as I know they can be good physical and mental workouts. Competing in a mini-hackathon(indoors) with my siblings at leisure is fun since I get to show off my technical skills amidst them.

Nanda, since you are being asked to provide an explanation of your activity within 100 words or less, I would not advice you to include that second paragraph in the statement anymore. It feels a bit rushed and almost out of place in your response. Maybe because it was not as well developed as the first paragraph. Since you lack the word count to actually make that activity more engaging in the eyes of the reviewer, it would be best to just skip it.

It is okay to provide a response that is less than 100 words because the essay instructions says that it is alright o do so. Your aim should be to present no less than 50 words in this case. Just work on properly closing the first paragraph so that it does not seem like it suddenly ended. That would be the best way for you to utilize the remaining word count. There is no need for a secondary, unrelated activity in the essay. It just makes the focus of the response confusing when you do that.
