Most students have an identity, an interest, or a talent that defines them in an essential way. Tell us about yourself.
Every day at five o'clock in the morning, while I was still comfortably in bed, I would hear my mom wake up to get ready for the day. At times, I felt slightly annoyed that her movements would wake me from my peaceful slumber, but I never had it in me to complain. When my mother was younger, she had dreams to become a flight attendant; she always said she wanted to reach for the sky. Unfortunately, her dreams got cut short by her conservative parents and a series of unexpected consequences. My amazing mother, however, decided to dedicate her time to being the best parent in the world and took on a laborious job cleaning newly developed houses. Despite her back-breaking job, I vividly remember my mother at all my school functions including parent-teacher meetings, family nights, dances, field trips and graduations. Little did I know, she was taking all those check deductions in order to be with me at school. To this day, I see my mother proudly wake up in the morning and go to work. Her most powerful tool, hard work, is something she will always be proud to pass onto my siblings and me.
In elementary school, I struggled with the work given to me for many years. In fact, I was almost held back two years in a row. My mother's constant presence in my life and the example set created of a hard worker helped me improve my academic life. One day during breakfast, my mother said to me: "When you set your mind to something, work hard, believe and persevere in all things you can accomplish anything." That day, something clicked in my promising brain. Since then, I have been determined to give my all in any activity, class, and sport I choose to partake in. I stayed every day before and after school for tutoring. I sacrificed my recess time for tutoring. I even took my teacher's math and reading exercise books home to do extra practice at home. Hard Work has become a virtue I applied very heavily in my life.
Personally, I believe hard work is defined as a great deal of effort or endurance. To qualify to wear the identity of a hard-worker, one must be willing to sacrifice many things and have a strong sense of self-discipline. I know first hand that this virtue pushes your body and mind to the breaking point. I can say for certain that working hard is not fun, however, I know that hard work always pays off in the end. Without the characteristic of being a hard worker, I would be a different person with distinct friends and aspirations. Throughout the years, I have sacrificed countless nights, days and even years to be where I am today. Currently, I'm the Valedictorian of my high school and I continually pursue growth and seek out improvement.
At times, I thank my mother for her disruptive morning routine. She taught me that through hard work you can overcome any adversity. When I graduate in May, I know my mother will take the day off from work, and use her hard-earned money to celebrate my milestone. She'll cry tears of joy knowing that I can aim my aspirations as far up in the sky as the plane in her dreams.
