I am working on my supplement for Stanford and would appreciate some feedback on my short answers! Please help!
Virtually all of Stanford's undergraduates live on campus. Write a note to your future roommate that reveals something about you or that will help your roommate - and us - know you better.
The opening lines of Eminem's song "Lose Yourself" sum up how I live my life: "Look! If you had one shot, one opportunity to seize everything you ever wanted, one moment, would you capture it? Or just let it slip?" I value every moment I have each day and never let a second go to waste. People say my red hair is where I get all my energy from, but I believe it comes from my drive to get the most out of life. My passion of traveling has influenced my life and the trajectory of my education and life goals. I have many goals for myself, and one of my favorite things is when I can cross something off of my bucket list! I am not much of a morning person, so I tend to have multiple alarm clocks to wake me. Being an only child has helped me to become more independent, but it has also provided me with time to myself to just relax. I love being active throughout the day, but I enjoy having some time to chill as well. I am somewhat indecisive, especially when it comes to food; however, I'm always up for eating Mexican. Music defines my life. Country music is my obsession, so don't be surprised if you see me wearing my cowboy boots! I've long desired to learn how to play the guitar, mainly so I can accompany my attempts of singing on key. I love playing and watching sports, it brings out my competitive side. I like to have a clean living environment, although my mom sometimes refers to my piles as a "messy-organization". I'm a 5'2'' ball of energy who loves making new friends. I love capturing the world through the lens of my camera. The little things in life make me laugh and smiling faces make my day. I can't wait to meet you!
Sincerely, Alex
