'Reading - bright and dark sides' - Common App Short Answer

Hello guys please help me! I'm in a hurry! Thank you so much! Your help will be greatly appreciated!

Topic: Please briefly elaborate on one of your extracurricular activities or work experience in the space below.

Tour with Confusius. Argue with Beckett. Talk with Fitzegerald. It's not about Time Machine; it's simply about reading. I love reading-in the crowded subway, under the mild sunlight, and against the tall plane tree. Reading is part of me. Through reading I encounter the dawn of Barcelona, taste Parmaham in Italy, and interview the vampire Louis. Through reading I touch the furrows on the farmer's face, see the eyes of women in Nepal, and hold child soldiers' hands in Sierra Leone. Reading brings me to witness both the bright and the dark side. Reading helps me find my way to decode this world. Reading teaches me how to be a considerate daughter, a good friend, a reliable leader and a nice human being. Reading connects me with this world-the places I have reached and haven't. It is because of reading that I understand the same expression of all the human races. Every time I read, I feel that I still ain't sucked into cliches or fear for life.

It looks great. My suggestion is that maybe

Reading teaches me how to be a considerate daughter, a good friend, a reliable leader and a nice human being.

you could delete "nice human being". I believe that when listing, 3 is the best number, or if you want to keep it, i think you might have better words than nice human being.

Also, it's just my opinion, but to me,

the places I have reached and haven't

looks better when it is

the places I have and haven't reached

Just suggestions. You're essay looks much better than mine!

Thank you so much! I will revise it according to your suggestions! Thank you again and best of luck!

haha I like this short answer!!! and take a look at my name! I'm vampire Louis' gay friend Lestat...XD

I think "ain't" in the last sentence is kind of informal here.

Thank you for your advice Lestat! What a nice coincidence! Plus I love vampires. The only thing is that I have already submitted my application so... Anyway, it's great to hear that you like it! Thank you!
