As a child of immigrants from China, I will be part of the first generation in my family to go to college, as well as the first person in my family to ever go to college. My parents have worked really hard as a cook at a Japanese restaurant and a seamstress at a interior design shop to provide a good life for my sister and I. Although money was never an issue, I knew that it was my duty to undertake a rigorous educational experience and earn exceptional grades and to never take the blessings from my family and Gof for granted. I believe that I have begun my journey to success by taking AP courses and college preparatory courses and being active in band, National Honor Society, Interact club, community service and other various clubs within the school in which some of them holding officer positions. I also have a part-time job as a camp counselor and a waitress which requires you to be outgoing, enthusiastic, patient, and helpful. I hope that I will be blessed with the opportunity to continue my journey to success at the Jacksonville University studying Elementary Education.
