Undergraduate / "I'm curious and friendly - My personality" - College short answer [6]

English became my second language just year ago, so, can somebody check my essay and make some corrections or give a advises please?

There are three short question-answer type essays about my personality.

I really appreciate your help. Thank you! =)

Prompt:
We know you lead a busy life, full of activities, many of which are required of you. Tell us about something you do for the pleasure of it. (100 words or fewer)

Answer:
If to talk about my favorite non-sports activities, since a secondary school I became interested in computer programming. This is so exciting! Firstly, it's just unusual - the computer language itself and that the computer does everything what you want. Secondly, I love to solve all sorts of puzzles and math problems, so I enjoy the very process of creating algorithms for the solving problems and improving them.

Prompt:
Although you may not yet know what you want to major in, which department or program at our university appeals to you and why? (100 words or fewer)

Answer:
I really like physics, mathematics and computer science. Even at a school in Russia I studied in the physics-mathematic class. And I do not want to stop on the school's knowledge, that's why my program must be based on these subjects. And if take into account that in the future I want to work as a software developer or something related to computers, then my choice is between: "6 - Electrical Engineering and Computer Science" and "18 - Mathematics with Computer Science".

Prompt:
What attribute of your personality are you most proud of, and how has it impacted your life so far? This could be your creativity, effective leadership, sense of humor, integrity, or anything else you'd like to tell us about. (*) (200-250 words)

Answer:
Actually, I'm not so proud of any of mine attributes of personality because all they together it's simply me, but I can mark out some of them.

Since the day I was born and even till now I'm very curious. Maybe I just didn't grow up since that day? I love to learn how things around me working, how to solve puzzles, brain-twisters and others tricky logical, algebraic problems. I really enjoy them. I can easily spend a lot of time in analyzing problems, creating a image in my head, trying to think unusual (finding a other, better way of solving) and finding solutions. That's why I so love mathematic and science.

Because of my curiosity (or just good memory) I absorb everything like a sponge. Of course it works only if I pay attention to something. I had a lot of situations when it helped me very much. For example, There was a situation when mathematic teacher gave to us new topic and I have remembered double-angle formulas just by looking on them and analyzing, trying to find similarity in formulas. On the next day no one expected that teacher is going to give us formula-test in which I did great.

I want to mark out one more of mine personality attribute that is important to me. I'm very friendly. I like to help my friends with anything that I can help in and they do so to me.

p.s.: sorry that I included all the short essays in one thread but I'm really can't give advise to someone's essay because I don't know language well...
