The Stanford College Essay Expirement

 

Words. 

Words matter. 

Words matter to me. 

Power.

They have power.

They have power beyond understanding. 

People don't understand it. 

They write it off.

But a text is powerful.

A post is life changing.

Example:

Hey.

Heyy :)

Yo bruh.

You see?

Same phrase in different ways.

The connotation changes. 

I like you, I love you, I'm in love with you. 

As a friend, as a lover, as a soulmate. 

So what now. Why is this important to you? 

Because the words I'm writing down are the words I feel have power. The power to give you a look into my mind, my stream of consciousness. 

They're words I hope show you who I really am, words that give off a good first impression. 

Changing one word changes your perception of me. It transforms me from a number, an application, to a person standing in front of you at this precise moment. 

Words matter.

That's all you know me by. 

I hope I picked the right words.
