Undergraduate / Tell us about who you are; I have the will and patience it takes to make a strong individual. [4]

@fatmajanna
My parents say that I do not give up and I have the will and patience it takes to make a strong individual. Someone who is more mature than the age might suggest, who can sit down in a family discussion and give constructive solutions to everyday family problems. They would also say that I am a third parent to my brother who picks him up from daycare everyday, helps him study and teaches him new concepts.

For my friends, they would say I am always there for them whenever they need me, helping them with homework; staying after school to help them understand new concepts. They would also describe me as a hard worker because they tell me that I am always studying or practicing football, basketball or going out to run.

The one community member that knows me really well is Herv, a coordinator at the Langley boys and girls club. To him I am a disciplined leader because I volunteer at the club, carrying out tasks with the kids and fellow leaders, always promoting a fun environment. He would also say that I am always on time or I let him know beforehand that I will be late. He also says I take initiatives to be a part of the community. An example of that would be the time I emailed him asking to run a small camp during the summer for the kids since they were not able to do any activities during the quarantine.

this is my updated essay. unfortunately i was not able to include the part about what i feel the most proud of because the word limit is 250 words and I am already at 249
