That's the word count of one of the 500 word essays. And I still need to write a 2 line small paragraph, and provide a closing to that essay. That would easily make that essay worth 800+ words ;) Then I would edit it till the time I have no more enthusiasm, after which, probably I will scrap the whole essay just because I dont think it is good enough. How I hate writing essays, they are just too much work! Which is why I am amazed how bloggers like Juggler, Rungee, and MBABlogger(although he isnt talking about it much) churn out so many essays in so small a time window. I am sad that I dont have such writing skills, but I hope I will catch up ;)
As if essay writing wasnt tough enough, take my word that writing essays the second time is tougher. You have to radically improve the ideas, the thoughts, the introspection which looked pretty good just a few months ago. How do you do that, I still have no clue. But I guess I will figure that out as well, because I have made some good friends during my last journey who always have something important to add. That's my biggest take-away of the phenomenon called blogging.
I have a feeling that this post is getting boring(both to write and probably to read) - but this was meant to be an update. In short, I am just getting warmed up, and hopefully, I should get into the groove so that I get through my rollercoaster ride in time.

From the other side of the app process, 3 tips only -
1) Differentiate. Differentiate. Differentiate.
2) Mercilessly edit.
3) Review with at least 5 different people.
Good luck buddy.
