My life dream is to become a medical doctor. It has been gradually shaped and intensified by two aspects.
I began to battle with language developmental delay since I was thirty months old which has greatly pushed me to learn more about its etiology. When I was little, I started wondering: How come there is language developmental delay? Why could this happen? This curiosity drove me to look for the answers. As a child, I spent a lot of time trying to learn more about this mystery and its causes. I frequently went through my dad's medical books searching for answers; I have read many Internet articles, hoping to better understand this mysterious disease. The more I searched, the more I wanted to know and the stronger the desire I had to study medicine.
My family environment also played a role, especially my dad, who is a hematopathologist. As a child, I often followed my dad to his work. Standing inside my dad's office, I was surrounded by microscopes and medical books. I was excited to see the objects under the microscopes which sparked my desire to learn more about them. I often wondered what the objects under the microscopes were and spent time curiously reading my dad's medical books. I felt fascinated when my dad talked about sub-cellular structure changes associated with various diseases.
Now, as I prepare to graduate from high school, I desire to go to college to become well-equipped and well-prepared to pursue my long-term dream.
