Undergraduate / My UCF undergraduate admissions essay...I am dying to go here critiques? [6]

Thanks so much for the advice!
Alright I tried to change it...is this better? I'm really having trouble with this...

I am an extremely fortunate young woman who has faced few bumps in the road as I was brought up in a secure family that has provided me with role models who have made me the person I am today. One role model that has had a huge influence on me has been my grandmother, who is an avid philanthropist as she played a significant role in the creation of a successful hospice organization. Due to her work in the community, she instilled in me a yearning to play a part in the community and work to make a positive difference in the lives of people that need it most. I have filled this need through my involvement in programs such as Lift Me Up, which I participated in with my sister Emily, who currently attends UCF. At Lift Me Up, we had the opportunity to assist children with special needs in receiving therapeutic horseback riding lessons, which is one of the greatest feelings in the world as I am assisting in making a significant difference in the life of someone less fortunate than I have been.

I understand that I am so incredibly fortunate to have everything that I do: my health, my family, and the financial ability to go to whichever college that I choose to attend. I choose UCF because I love that I will be sharing the college experience with my sister, I love the campus, and I love the idea that I could continue to make a difference in my community through programs like "Volunteer UCF" that would provide me with the opportunity to get involved. What I hope to bring to UCF is a well-rounded person aiming to smooth the bumps in the road that others face.

Prompt:Why did you choose to apply to UCF?
What qualities or unique characteristics do you possess that would allow you to contribute to the UCF community?

I choose you. I would love to tell you some sob story about how I finally overcame adversity...but I cannot because I don't possess one and frankly I don't have too many bumps in the road either. I am a lucky and fortunate young woman who from up until this point has suffered minimally as I live in a stable family that has provided me with role models who have made me the person I am today. My grandmother, who is an avid philanthropist as she played a significant role in the creation of a successful hospice organization, has instilled in me a yearning to play a part in the community and work to make a positive difference in people's lives that need it.

I choose UCF because I love the atmosphere, I love the campus, and I love the idea that I could continue to make a difference in my community through programs like "Volunteer UCF" that would provide me with the opportunity to get involved. What I hope to bring to UCF is a well-rounded person who has lived in many different regions, been exposed to many different people, and comes from a stable background and as a result embraces diversity and attempts to make the absolute best out of all situations.
