OK.This is a rough draft and I know I need much critic to make it better.
Much of the work that students do at Emerson College is a form of storytelling. If you were to write the story of your life until now, what would you title it? Why? (400-600 words).
Sponge Girl
You think of the Spongebob. No, I don't wear boxers. My whole life until now is soaking up something. Let me tell you.
Literature
I was 5 and tried to look like adult. My eyes are focus, my back is tight and my hand with a newspaper. I should be able to understand everything. Well, I got the paper upside down. When I realize how funny it is to read, I immerse myself into books. In the Tales of Two Cities, I cry for Carton, a man sacrificed himself to keep his promise to his love. In the pride and prejudice, I worry about the relationship between Darcy and Elizabeth. I sought the treasure with Jim in Treasure Island. I fly to the Neverland with Peter pan. I am always on the ready to read more before my bed, on the subway, even in restroom. I am no longer that little girl who imitates adults. I have my own world in books.
Art
Eyes were on me. Suddenly the hall is void of people and I could only hear my beats and breathe. I stretch my hands and arms with elegance; my finger is on the keyboards, waiting for the shoot. I have practiced the song for more than one thousand times. But my head is stuck in a minute and my memory is black out. Who pull out the light?
"Hey, there's nobody watching you. Just you with your piano. And your love song, Fur Ellice." My mind keeps me sober. With a deep breathe, notes flow out from the piano. I am not frozen any more. Applause rise, I walk down the stage. "Woo, I have never see a girl play piano in SYSU before." The teacher comments, "It's rather impressive." I won the respect of my classmates. Even though many of them are specialized in piano or other instrument, they give me claps. I know it's for my desire to gain confidence and bravery to try. This happens in my anchor class, when I am the only student comes from another university.
Cook
See, this is a girl who takes cooking for fight. She pours the oil into the hot pan, and then rushes the vegetables down to the magma and fight against the hot boil splitting out of the pan. She tries to add some water to make those little green organic calm, but it gets them fiercer. Thanks god, the cabbage isn't spoiled again. She takes out the note book and write down, "Sunday, successful vegetable. Try some meat next time." 3 years past, she is a sophisticated cook now. She could now bring you various delicate meals without calling a firefighter to her kitchen. She grows up.
Whether in life or study, I remain myself sponginess. In life there is much to learn and I will never stop soaking up. Whether in college or in life, I am desperate to learn.
