I've always planned on being an exceptional person. My definition of exceptional is constantly changing as I grow older and become more experienced in Life, whatever that means. Its funny that I always seem to meet my own criteria of an exceptional person, but I guess no less is expected of a smart ass teenager who reads JD Salanger religiously and hates writing college essays because he feels phoney writing what college entrance readers want to read. The above is my satirical attempt at one of my college entrance essays at UT (Texas). <sighs> Obviously I don't like writing these things...anyone have any suggestions as to how I could make this process easier? Thanks, Eric
