But anyway, I had my mom help me, she's a good writer

Many regular decision deadlines are Jan 1.

And who actually wrote your essays - you or your mom? :p

You think that could work or would it mark me as psychotic? I think I definitely could make it interesting, but it is a matter of whether it is a taboo subject matter or not.

bump for opinions
