Book Name: 55 Successful Harvard Law School Application Essays
Writer: Harvard Crimson
“Hi, I’m Joleen! I’m from Wisconsin! Where are you from?” trills the pretty earthy colored eyed girl in my dorm room. I sigh. I would love to have a simple answer to give her and, usually, when confronted with such a daunting question, I smile politely and answer some version of the truth. I try to read her. I wonder if it would be enough to give her the “I’m originally from Haiti” retort. I could always go with a different approach and tell her that I went to high school in Kenya. She might think of me as a world traveler.
I didn’t know where I was from and so I couldn’t know where I was going. All of that changed when I got to NYU. I moved to the big city alone while my parents remained halfway across the world in Nairobi, Kenya. I chose New York because in fourth grade, on a school excursion, I saw Les Misérables on Broadway and it changed my life.
I was going to change the world and I knew that I needed to go to New York; the same place that so beautifully told the story of a French orphan girl. I had moved around before. The city’s stresses slowly but surely took its toll on me. I didn’t know what I was doing anymore.
