Hey all! For my statements of purpose, I had initially planned to write about why my potential doctoral project is significant. Is this something that would be good to include in my statement of purpose, or would it be off-putting?

Tour guide with a company, specializing in tours of Rome, Florence, and the Vatican! Probably both the best and craziest.

I found this resource... any thoughts on it?

I'm writing an honors thesis next year, which I was hoping to use as a writing sample when I apply to graduate schools. However, I'm unsure if I can produce a super polished piece of work by the December 1st deadlines. I've thought about writing a piece during the summer that relates to my field, or the piece I'm writing for my internship which is in my field, but I'm unsure. Help?
