Undergraduate / Nursing school - a scenario that challenged your core values & how you responded [4]

This is my essay for one of the schools that I'm applying - nursing school admission. I am aware that there are many grammatical errors and some sentences need to be rephrased. Please read and share you opinion! Thank you

Topic: Describe a scenario that challenged your core values & explain how you responded

"Ching - Chang - Chong"

This phrase rang in my ears when I was walking down the street in Bronx, New York. It was afternoon [in March 2006.] A man at the corner of the street shouted it out loud to me with laughter. I felt as if lightening and thunder stroked me - louder and louder buzzing my head; my mind was already clouded with full of shame and confusion. It was my first cultural shock [in 15 years of my life] how some people would be blinded by prejudice and stereotypes as they simply judge me/ others simply by looking my/their appearance.

["Ching - Chang - Chong"]
I am Korean - I was crying out from my heart. However, I could not do anything but walking as if I did not hear it. Such ignorance challenged/ led me to think about my identity as Korean and Asian. Trains of thoughts/ I was inundated with trains of thoughts and emotions from my family to all teachers and friends from all over the world in school. It was a moment when I realized I was fortunate to have people around me who would support me. I was proud of what makes me unique and enrich me culturally. From this experience, I had opportunity to think about/ appreciate [what I have had for granted] and reflect my identity as a proud Korean and Asian. For once more, I murmur it to myself and laugh it off.
