Essay:
"She is always in the top rank at school. She is such a dynamic and talent girl. She is one of the best students of mine. I feel happy and comfortable to be in charge of a class having a monitor as her."
I couldn't stand being proud when I heard my grade 9 counselor chatted with her colleagues those words. I was pleased because all my ceaselessly effort in academic as well as in leadership was finally acknowledged. Those days were so wonderful. I felt as if I was in the heaven with a heart full of love and happiness, among my teachers and my dear friends. However, everything has to come to an end. At the end of the school year, all of us had to cope with an extreme-hash entrance examination to continue to grade 10 in another school. I studied day and night, studied harder than a bee to attain my aim, because my teachers and my parents set all their hope on me. I mustn't let them down.
With all my optimism and endeavor, I did win; the dream of mine, of my parent's finally came true. I became a member of Le Hong Phong high school, a school which is categorized as one of the best schools for the gifted in Vietnam. New environment, new classmates, everything was totally great. One new life started hopefully when I was chosen to be the vice-president of my class. I believed the days after would be as wonderful as the past. However, contrary to my expectation, everything tended to go on the wrong way. My classmates came from different areas and provinces. Each student has his own unique character. However, they had one thing in common: they were all talent; they had been the best students in their old school. As a result, I felt as if they were diamonds, precious treasures, really sparkled but unconnected. It was a challenge to unify them. I and the class president had to prepare many things for them to explore each others. One of the most effective ways is playing games at weekends. We used to play different games, such as remembering-names, remembering- birthdays, or being-"blind"-and-drawing-your-friend's-face. My favorite one was guessing our friend's career in the future. To play that game, we commented about the chosen one's characteristics, and then guessed his favorite job. This game brought us plenty of surprise. A girl wanted to be a pilot. A boy loved to be a famous Hollywood director. Another mischievous boy desired to be a Math teacher. This game really helped us be closer and understand each others more.
However, that was not my only problem. As I have stated, my classmates are diamonds. They're extremely excellent. In the first school year, I was shocked because of their intelligent minds. They also had followed a summer course to know all knowledge in advance. I couldn't catch up with them. If you view my transcript, you can see how different between the results of grade 9 and grade 10. Stressful, disappointed! I was sometimes buried in a pool of depression, and even wallowed in Internet, blogging, chatting for a short time to forget the bad reality. Luckily, my family and best friends were always by my side. They helped me recall my dream and my passion in learning. After giving myself a slap on the face, I came back to my desk, continued in studying day and night. Staying up late till midnight, waking up at 4 or 5 am gradually became my habit. I spent all my savings on preference books, spent most of my time in school library so that the librarian remembered my full name and my class among 2 thousands students. Step by step, little by little, I regained my confidence. Although my academic result was not good, I am pleased that I have not ever given up. My mother is right when saying that a learner must be a soldier. I couldn't be the best soldier, but I am proud I have never dropped my weapon.
A hasher entrance examination is waiting for me. I am planning to struggle with
strongest rivalries. Those days in Le Hong Phong were significantly improved my
courage, my faith and self-confidence. I believe I can pass. A good university
is welcoming me. Everything will be more challenge, but the soldier is ready to
strive for her future.
