COMMON APP EXTRACURRICULAR ESSAY; MY LOVE FOR BIOLOGY

I like much of our generation has fallen to procrastination.
Does this do its job? Is it boring? Be harsh!
Any edits criticisms, grammar are much appreciated.

Please briefly elaborate on one of your extracurricular activities or work experiences in the space below (1000 character maximum).
From a young age, biology always captured me. As a child, I rejected the typical Barbies and sparkly paraphernalia for any tool which might help me uncover a cure or unveil a scientific phenomenon. I had yet to meet someone become as excited over science processes.

So, when I was accepted to spend my summers at Temple University to gain lab experience as part of the Physician Scientist Training Program, I was thrilled. Minds like my own meeting to learn skills, years before we would need them, was vindicating and unsettling at the same time. This began my search, this insatiable thirst to find things that would satisfy my medical itch. Eventually it lead me to rationalize the sacrifice of every Saturday from 4th grade, up to my final year of high school, in the name of mathematics and science enrichment. The UIC Early Outreach Program has held me from sleepovers, early morning practices and much deserved sleep-but I would not exchange it for anything.

Thank you so much

From a young age, biology has always intrigued me.

I had yet to meet someone who would become as excited over science processes.---Should it say, 'scientific' processes?

This began my search, this insatiable thirst to find things that would satisfy my medical itch .---This sounds as if you have a serious rash!
