My personal statement: To live a simple, healthy life full of fun, and happiness. I did not like making a personal statement. I felt like I was cutting my self short. It seemed like I had to summarize myself in just one or two sentences and I felt like I was far more complex than that. I want more out of life than just fun and happiness. People write whole books about what they want out of life, and I would rather do that.

What are your core values - the values or characteristics that are so important the you would die trying to protect them? I'm not trying to dramatic in this question, but rather trying to uncover your values. Is there an ethical boundary to your "healthy life full of fun"? Do you need to interact with other people? What is truly important to you?
