A Challenge

I enjoy challenges because they always make me a stronger and a more experienced person. I think challenges can intensify the potential inside a person. I enjoy mental challenge more because physical always seem to be harder for me. Running marathon, doing push-ups, etc., always challenges me and it is not enjoyable at all. However, I like mental challenges because it requires thinking. Mental challenges include handling pressure, dealing with troubles, works, and solving problems. Sometimes it is emotional, and sometimes it is troublesome. But I think that’s what arouses our abilities.

A challenge that I faced is being over-working under an inhuman schedule at school. In my old school, I had to get up at 6:30 and the last period lasts until 17:15, which is total 8 periods a day. After that, I was supposed to go take a class for my standardized test. Later, I had to take a shower and finish my dinner within 40 minutes. And then I only got two periods for night study because I must to go practice for a competition until 10. After 10, I had to go back to the dorm and settle down to finish the rest of my work. However, the dorm was pretty noisy and the teachers were being despotic about the noise. And I had to take the pressure that our class would be scold anytime at school. I survived the first semester. But I couldn’t make it through the second one, which is why I transferred to here. Nevertheless I learned a lot and knew how tough life could be.
