My parents used to tell me I was so full of life when I was a child. I put a lot of effort into both my academics and extracurricular activities as a student. I consistently received awards, and I liked participating in contests. Along with earning my parents' excitement to drive me to different schools and places to get my medals and trophies, I also voluntarily signed up for dancing, tutoring, and art workshops throughout the summer break until junior high school because I knew being diligent would impress them.
