This is my supplement for the application of Brown...
--------------Thanks for any harsh criticism or comment on this unrefined essay.----------------
In Brown, I believe I would not have time to hesitate in throwing myself to something I truly love. Students there have their individual goals, sharing the courage to pursue them regardless of others' choices. In Chinese traditional ideas, transcript could decide everything. I remember in senior one, 4 of our classmates signed to compete in ceramic making competition. To stand out from the crowds, we applied normal mud to making bronzy quadripod, an ancient Chinese cooking vessel with four legs. The process indeed required both tolerance and subtlety. I dried the mud, molded to scheduled shapes and put paste to the join points. Most difficultly, I should score in the mud with burin, but simultaneously not penetrate the thin layers. When I finally painted the quadripod in black green, I had already spent a week doing so every night. Only completed the regular homework but not the additional assignment, my mom was angry and criticized me for not focusing on my poor physics but devoting time on recreation. Though I was mad to hear the words, I indeed understood my mother's thoughts. In a school where the students' behaviors were all judged by the blocked subjects, it was hard not to admire the students who had outstanding transcript. Maybe that was the reason why I devoted much time to the abhorring physics. Why in the world do I need to sacrifice my piano-playing time or painting time to analyze how a bullet penetrates a wooden block?
The Brown/RISD Dual Program is the second reason; it indeed unfastened my cumulative worries. I really loved art design, especially watercolor painting. At a very young age, I told my surrounding people about my three dream jobs: painter (or designer), pianist and athletics. However, my only 16.5 centimeters short hands stopped the second dream and my entrance to senior school instead of sports school cancelled my third one ( In China, most athletes started professional training at a very young age and often dropped the regular studies). The only surviving dream drove me to major in Arts in university. However, the older I am, the more fascinations I discover in this world. I love mathematics, as well as environmental science. Those things stop me from stepping in only one road. So when I discovered the program in the website, I firmly held the belief that I would give this a try no matter the result. Even if I fail, I would not regret.
