F.Problem Solution

Problem: You are hard up in your EAPP Subject

Solution:

Answer the question; respond to the prompt. It’s amazing how many applicants

either don’t directly relate their essay to the question or bury their response in the

middle or end of their essay. For example, if the question is “Why Tufts?,” your

essay should begin with your main and compelling reason why you wish to attend

Tufts.Be authentic. You may not believe this statement, but it’s true: most

application readers can spot a canned and heavily edited essay a mile away. Your

goal in crafting your essay is to write from the heart — and expose your soul,

your core. Your essay is a window into who you are and the type of student you’ll

be if accepted to that particular university.Write with active voice. By choosing

active voice, your essay will be inviting, crisp, vivid. Using active voice keeps the

meaning of your sentences clear and easier to read and understand. Typically

active voice will also keep your sentences shorter, more concise.Take risks. One

of the worst things you can do with your essay is to write something boring,

bland, and unmemorable. Take a stand, admit a weakness, showcase how you

overcame an adversity. It’s much better to be different than to blend into all the

other applicants. One warning, though: don’t take the risk too far by going over

into the dark side.Tell a story. You may think responding to an essay prompt with
a group of slightly connected sentences around a theme is okay, but doing so

limits the power of your essay. Instead, tell a (short) story. Include a beginning,

middle, and end — ideally with compelling action, theme, and conclusion.Keep it

simple. You are not going to gain any admissions points by writing as though you

were producing a piece for an academic journal. You do not need complex

sentence structures nor obscure words. Keep your writing concise, focused — and

your vocabulary straightforward.Avoid errors. Yes, of course proofread and

spellcheck — but push yourself beyond the normal efforts. If you used references,

check the spelling of authors, characters, and the like. Watch for words that sound

the same but are spelled differently (e.g., passed, past; whether, weather). Do

NOT use slang, emoticons, or any texting jargon; the essay is a piece of formal

writing. Ask at least one other person to proofread your final draft.Seek

feedback. You do not — and should not — write your essay in a vacuum. Seek

advice from knowledgeable adults about all aspects of your essay — from the

topic to structure. Consider a favorite English teacher or guidance counselor, as

well as a family member.Embrace rewriting. Even the very best and experienced

writers write multiple drafts of their work — constantly striving for the words and

meaning to be perfect, precise. Because your essay can have an impact on

whether you get accepted into a college or university, you too should be open to

polishing your essay with multiple drafts until you (and others you respect) are

completely satisfied.

F.Problem Solution

Problem:You have a special feeling for someone but you feel shy to express it

Solution:

Building up confidence. Just be yourself when you want to interact with your

crush. You don't want to build your relationship off of lies and pretending to be

someone you're not, so let your personality shine through. Sometimes, when you

stuck about things to talk about, ask your crush about themselves or give them a

compliment. You can say something like, "What sports do you like to play?" or

"You did really good on your presentation today."

 The easiest subjects to talk about with your crush are things you have in common,

like classes, places you've traveled, or favorite restaurants. Talking about things

you have in common will lighten the mood and help you relax.

Let your body language speak for itself. Touching anybody is a sign of closeness.

So, a subtle way to express to your crush that you like them is to break the touch

barrier. Light touches are the best way to go to get your message across without

coming off too strong.

 For example, if you’re talking with your crush or passing by them, you can give

them a light touch on the upper arm. If you’re sitting next to your crush, you can

casually let your feet or knees touch every once and smile to show your feelings.
 Just a little bit physical attention will let your crush know that you like them.

Touching you crush lightly just once or twice during a conversation is sufficient

enough to let your crush know how you're feeling.

Write a letter. It can sometimes be hard to verbalize your feelings to someone you

like, so writing a love letter is an easy way to express how you feel without

having to do it in person. Just like in the previous method, begin your letter by

stating your inspiration for writing the letter.

 For instance, you can begin with, "I've really enjoyed getting to know you better

over these past couple of months..." or "I just wanted to let you know that over

this past year, you have become one of my best friends...”

 In our day and age of technology, typing out a text message or Facebook message

is easy. Writing a letter by hand is more sincere and requires a bit more effort.

Because of the added effort, your gesture is that much more appealing to your

crush.

Keep it light. You letter can start off casual, and you can write about a few inside

jokes that the two of you have together or fun times that you've experienced

together. From there, you can dive right in, and explain the reason for the letter,

telling your crush you have feelings for them. You can say something like, "I just

wanted to tell you that I like you, and I really like hanging out with you."

 Keep it short and sweet. You don't want to go too much into how much you like

your crush or why, before you have your answer as to how they feel about you.
 Tell your crush your feelings in person. Pick a place that's stress-free where it

would be appropriate to talk alone, make eye contact, and simply tell your crush

how you feel. You can make some small talk, but after a while jump right in and

tell them how you feel. You can give a compliment or two while your telling your

crush how you feel. For example, "I really like you. Nobody makes me laugh like

you do."

 After you tell your crush how you feel, give them time to react and process what

you've said. Don't immediate ask them how they feel or what they think.

 You don't want to come off too intense. Give your crush some time to react and

respond, and try not to put the pressure on them

Respond appropriately. Once you say how you feel, your crush will either say that

they share your feelings, or want to just stay friends. If your crush shares your

feelings don't be afraid to your excitement. It's okay to be silly and giddy after

you and your crush tell each other how you feel. If your crush just wants to be

friends, be mature and say something like, "Okay, I just wanted to let you know."

It will hurt, but you always want to leave a good impression. Although you will

be upset, try to act like it wasn't a big deal, and wait until you have some privacy

to be sad about it.

 Once you know your crush likes you back, you can ask your crush on a casual

date by offering to go see a movie together, or catch a baseball game. This will

offer up some time for the both of you to get to know each other better.
 If your crush doesn't share your feelings, at least you had the confidence to take a

chance. There are plenty of other opportunities to find someone right for you.
