Church has always been a part of my life, in defining my values and beliefs. I grew up in a Christian family and around Christian families. I believe this definitely impacted me as a person as I was growing up. I wasn’t much of a rebellious child. I wasn’t the best student, but I do try hard to succeed in school. I uphold my religious values as my morals. I don’t steal, I don’t cheat, etc. I would say I’m a fairly righteous and just person.
One particular event changed my life. In the summer of 2010, I joined a leadership program at Light and Love Home. Before my mom forced me to join this program that I wasn’t even remotely interested in, I was one of those students who sits in the corner of the classroom and doesn’t talk much but gets her work done. I didn’t really socialize and I was very shy when I meet new people. This leadership program completely transformed me. I met a group of friends whom I quickly became close friends with. And in no time, I was the loudest person in that group. There were all different kinds of people I met that summer. Each distinct individual shaped me in their own way. Not that they did anything in particular, just being with them changed me as a person. When I returned to school in September, everyone wonders what happened to me because I was suddenly very active and talkative. It was because of this event that I am who I am now.
The transition from high school to college is really quite a change. I have to make new friends and adapt to the new environment. Honestly, I just hope I can survive through my first semester. Some courses are quite challenging and I’m afraid I won’t do too well. As a college student, I wish to be more responsible in getting my work done without procrastinating. I want to keep up a good GPA throughout college. I also want to make more friends and enjoy my college life.
