&lt;P&gt;Write the entire essay first. Even parts of the introduction and conclusion.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Then read the entire thing. You're bound to come up with something better instead of just winging it when you first write it.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;On another note, would anyone be interested in reading over and correcting&amp;nbsp;my college short answers and personal statement for Pepperdine University? &lt;/P&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
