Writing Feedback / Short Essay about your passion in an academic subject and what driven you to keep going on that path [2]
Here is my take:
"For one thing, I believe that fate is never sealed - it can change, shift from one form to another, and whoever tries for the best will be blessed. And my little tale can say the same because, from a single day, the trajectory of my life turned a completely different way.
If I remember correctly, I wasn't anything too special. Besides my early childhood being able to read at the age of 2, I was just your average Asian student. But then, I found out about my little quirk in English at age 9. It was something that set me unique from others - not many at that time can be able to communicate with a native, talking about personal life almost every single day!
In 5th grade, I achieved my proudest achievement: Obtaining the Silver Medal on the Internet Olympiads of English! It certainly was the highest reward I obtained in my early days. But after that, my academic achievements soon slowed down. When I almost hit rock bottom, I remember my past, and that I need to try harder to get back on track again.
I realized that, when I tried hard enough, I could break the cycle, away from being the unsuspecting victim of normality. Thanks to that, I was able to succeed. I was able to find my talents and interests. And even if I didn't see any glimpse of hope left, there would be people backing me up, leading me to the door to success. Even if darkness is in the skies, somewhere, there shall be light guiding us to safety.
No one was ever sure if something would happen or not. People may dwell in shame and regret, regret that they didn't do something, regret that they could've done something better. But no matter what, you'll have to move on, to change for the better. Only our actions can define our destiny."
