help with personal statement for college

Boardin087 said:
heres my first rough rough draft, i like where its going but it has some holes and such, i would like to talk about the temptations in more detail but dont know how to put it, ANY help is very very greatly appreciated. I will hit with K.

Please choose one of the commitments that you listed in the Activities section (activity, interest, or work experience) and provide a short description of its importance to you. Include why that commitment could be relevant to your student experience at Penn State.


Three hundred and fifty pounds is nearly twice my bodyweight, yet I pull with all my might struggling to lift it off the ground. At the top of the brutal ascent I thrust my hip forward to complete the ascent. I complete the lift known as a deadlift by descending the weight to the ground. This lift is one of the key parts of my bodybuilding training regimen. No other activity that I have ever participated in requires as much devotion and self discipline as bodybuilding. The physical and mental strains that go on inside and outside the gyms are a constant struggle. Bodybuilding requires strict dieting, rigorous training and a healthy lifestyle. There are constant temptations in my life that would interfere with my training. These same temptations will be present in my tenure at your university, except here these temptations could interfere with something much more important then bodybuilding, my schoolwork. I feel as if the constant test of my self discipline presented by my sport, has more then prepared me for the rigorous studying and course load that I will be assigned at Penn State University.

PSU? Good call. Wish I had accepted my chance to go but regardless.

As for the actual paragraph. If you insist on using bodybuilding. Drop the deadlift and use squat Slow descent to the floor as a metaphor for getting to this point and the extremely difficult but forcefull drive upwards to finish the lift despite pain and suffering to what you would do IN college, once accepted. I dunno, if you'll like that but seems to fit the subject matter better.

Regardless, good luck.
 
This sort of thing is lame. Not your fault, I think this is about what they want for a personal statement.
