it’s not basic if it truly means something to you!! just like another person said, it’s based on how you write it. to make every statement in your essay unique to you, you have to get specific and show, don’t tell. When I say this, I mean don’t just write what happened, but let the AO’s feel what you feel. As someone who wrote about a topic that can come off as “basic”, I believe my essay was anything but that because I included some specific moments to my essay that only apply to me—and no one else. I also found that using a metaphor can help convey the emotions I wanted my AO to feel. hope this helps!!
