留学个人陈述写作七大要领
个人陈述是一个十分关紧的提出申请材料，假如说托福和gre等绩效是必须具备的硬件，那末留学个人陈述则是必要的软件。下边我给大家总结概括了留学个人陈述写作七大要领。
一、个人陈述的注意事情的项目
1.个人陈述切实避免仿用模型板，好的个人陈述是千锤百炼的最后结果，是思想的形成晶体。第一次的稿子时可以吸收另外的人好的经验，这是务必也是不可缺少的，不过成型后的个人陈述必须要有自个儿的独特的地方。
2.要注意个人陈述与其它材料的合适，譬如推荐信，CV等，个人陈述也要有所冒尖和重点，不可以样样俱全。
3.最好不要有表现上的问题，自个儿要用自个儿擅长的有把握单词和句式，务必不要由于想多样性，而去多样性。
4.必须要依照学院的要求来写个人陈述，譬如字数要求等。所以在网申提交处理个人陈述时必须要看清学院的要求，不要偷懒。个人陈述的字数要尽有可能的靠近或略微超过学院的字数要求。不要写的太少或超的非常多。
二、个人陈述效用与目标
个人陈述在整个儿的提出申请过程中的效用是不允许怀疑的，好的个人陈述可以吸引教授的眼珠子，可以补救一点其它方面（譬如GT）的污点。由于在海外，教授的权益仍然比较大的，大多学院都是这么。所以能让一个教授看中你，你便会很可望。所以我们写个人陈述的一个主重要的条目的就是要各个方面的展出自个儿的优势并吸引住教授（最好的个人陈述是可以让教授亲身去结合你）。
三、个人陈述怎么样写好
个人陈述要写好，困难程度非常大，想好诠释好怎么样写个人陈述困难程度也不小，从宏观上说，有两个方面，一方面是内部实质意义，另一方面是表现。内部实质意义如何才总算好呢？实际上解答不惟一，我个人感到内部实质意义要跟着自个儿的目标走。有的放矢，如果自个儿个人陈述的读者，我感到可以把读者限制到自个儿想套的教授的范围内，要想方想办法让教授眼前一亮，然而说得容易，做起来很难。表现是另一个因难关口，尤其是对于我们习性了汉字思惟的同学更是这么。所以要想开具好的个人陈述，怎么样表现，语言关是必须要过的。
四、个人陈述的开篇
个人陈述的开头与几种套路，所说的万事开头难，个人陈述也是这么，在写的时刻是煞费苦心，不晓得怎么个写法，几种还不赖的开头办法。
1.绍介环境型
这种办法有可能会很平常的，不过这是最容易上手的一种办法。一着手先绍介下自个儿的学院和专业，自个儿的人机体机能想，自个儿的人的生活目的，自个儿对日后的计划，还是用一句话来表现自个儿对学院的心爱等。这么的开头感受仍然手很顺，由于都是想想就可以开具来，很适应第一次的稿子的写文章，这么的开头也能使海外教授一着手就能对你有个大概的理解。教授一天要看众多份材料，没可能都很用心细密，将自个儿的环境一着手就和盘托出，可以使老美省力不少，其看后面的段落时心理会更有头绪。
2.明确目标型
这也是一种不赖的开头办法，有些大致相似于写作里举例子的开头，可以回想一件自个儿钟头刻的事（我们写文章文好似常常这样干），而后经过这件事来引出想出国的端由。譬如钟头刻根本就没想到出国，不过后来长大了，理解的事情多了，感受到世界真是大呀，自个儿的同学出了国，和自个儿说了众多贵国的事，要得自个儿也对贵国饱含了好奇…等等，一着手就让教授晓得你出国的目标，开篇坦诚，也是海外教授喜欢的。
3.称赞型
称赞谁呢？实际上称赞的对象普通是我们提出申请的学院，首先依照我的了解，我们之所以出国，非常大的期于去学习海外先进的文化技术，或是感到该国的社会形态背景更好，所以贵国在这方面一定是会强于大多国度的。这会儿我们可以经过我们的专业环境知识，先绍介学院在这方面的优势，称赞其在这方面获得的一系列业绩。并随之称赞所提出申请的学院在这方面的冒尖贡献，讲道理自个儿去该学院的端由。这种办法的中心仍然要牵连到自个儿申请报告的学院，这是我们的目标，实际上实质就是应答这所学院为何吸引我。这么的开头，海外教授也是会喜欢的。
五、个人陈述内部实质意义问题
个人陈述的开篇写好了，后面的段落展开就好办得多了，由于你已经说起笔了，思惟慢慢便会活动开。
1.关于环境型
绍介了环境在这以后，接下来就是要开具你自个儿的独特的地方和优势了，可以具体绍介下自个儿的研究兴致，自个儿日后想投身哪方面的研究。依照学院的要求将自个儿的个人陈述补给完整。
2.关于回想旧事型
经过一个小故事，已经让老美对你有了一点感性的意识，下边就要具体的绍介自个儿的环境，科学研究事情状况，在校表达等。
3.关于称赞型
论述了自个儿对学院的心爱，在这以后继续当然是自个儿的环境和自个儿的兴致，自个儿的科学研究有经验等等。怎么样开头基本上就表决了整个儿个人陈述的写法惠风格，上面所说的3种开头实际上是互补的，一种用于开头，其他的就可以用在文章的主干。个人陈述的写法十分灵活，没有啥子套路，应当依据私事情状况，灵活合理的安置整篇文章。
六、个人陈述字数问题
在没有写个人陈述之前，大家都往往会担心个人陈述的字数问题，有可能总会感到自个儿写不出物品，汉字的都难写，更无须说用英文的了，信任蛮多人都仍然会碰到这么的问题。不过我可谓，只要你着手写，通过改正后，个人陈述的字数绝对不是问题，并且字数往往会超过众多学院的要求。
1.怎么将个人陈述写的比较长
怎么样将个人陈述写长，为何要这样说呢，为何要写长呢？和写GRE 作文同样，我们要论述和表现一点物品，想要表现明白，天然是需求字数的，在这以后还要通过数量多的改正，难以避免会删洗雪众多冗余的内部实质意义，这有可能会大大缩减篇幅。普通来说，把长文章改短容易，但要是把短文章改长那就比较难了。所以一着手写的时刻我们尽有可能把个人陈述写长一点，一来是自个儿会感受令人满意，另一方面是个人陈述写的长了，那末对我们自身的描写有可能会更各个方面，能更好的出风头。怎么样写长呢？就是要全方位的表达自个儿，把自个儿好的方面都开具来。
2.怎么样将个人陈述写短
怎么样写长，是第1步。要好好来想想怎么样将个人陈述写短，如今众多学院都对个人陈述有字数的限止，普通字数要求是在1000~1500之间，上一步的第一次的稿子往往字数是超过标准。由于学院有字数要求-这是我们将个人陈述要改短的端由，去粕存精就是将个人陈述写短的策略。
怎么样写短呢？将个人陈述改短，不是认识不清的紧缩减少内部实质意义，而是要有的放矢的，首先要去网站上去将学院正个人陈述的要，读懂读透，将学院的要求克化后，再来改正我们的个人陈述。晓得了学院的要求，我们心里就有个底了，这会儿就可以相应的改正个人陈述了。
大概的步骤可以参照如下所述：
1.将与学院要求没想到干的骈枝的内部实质意义也删除，留下与要求完全一样的内部实质意义（往往都是中心内部实质意义了）。
2.对留下的内部实质意义施行语言改正，并收拾安置。
3.再插进去些要补给的内部实质意义，前提是字数没有达到要求。插进去的内部实质意义应当尽有可能的简洁。
4.在对文章施行改正，收拾安置。
七、个人陈述语言问题
个人陈述之所以难写的另一个端由语言，由于我们不是英语国度，所以思惟和海外不是很同样，开具来的文章，除开语句不是很标准外，表现方式有可能也不同。有可能对同一个问题的描写，不一样的语言会有不一样的用处，这个大家是深有体验领会。
就到现在为止来说，除开一点写文章有经验尤其强的同学，大多同学的英文写文章水准都是普通，所以要克服个人陈述的这个因难关口，到现在为止来说最好的方法就是集思广益，大多可以采取以下作法：
1.几个提出申请的同学（可以在网上）结成一个小组，互相之间改，这么有啥子问题大家一块儿商议。
2.请异国朋友帮助修改并加批语，这处的异国朋友指的是英语国度的同学、老师等。众多学院如今都有外教，提议约去咖啡馆，慢慢改。
3.请学院的英语老师帮助改，这个也是一个好方法，毕竟英语老师对英文的知道得清楚程度要大于我们。
4.请已经留学在外的同学，亲属等帮助改正。
5.请专业的留学顾问，专业的留学企业普通有专业的海外外籍顾问。
这以上的办法接合起来运用，这么效果最好，往往个人陈述要通过反反复复的改正，能力成型，能力形成一篇好的文章。
经过上头对个人陈述写文章的七大要领的解读，信任对于众多规划提出申请美国研究生的人来说，在准备个人陈述写文章的时刻可以参照上面所说的的信息来做好准备。
准留学生们在动手写个人陈述（Personal Statement）的时候往往摸不着头脑，不知如何下手，其实留学个人陈述只要在写之前理清思路和重点，就能下笔如有神助哦。专门提供留学资讯的Hotcourses中国小编就以一篇留学个人陈述范文为例，为大家解析一下留学个人陈述模板的框架和语言风格。 留学个人陈述模板的开头部分 留学个人陈述在开头需要直奔主题，因为外国老师不喜欢绕来绕去的措辞，最好在开始就表现出积极的态度，以及表明自己为什么想要学这个专业，同时也不要忘记了阐述自己的独特之处。当然，因为这个是开始，所以要以简单明了为主。 以下就是英文的模板例文： I graduated from xxx university with a degree in xxx (subject). I would like to apply xxx at youruniversity. With my great passion in the area, I hope to become an expert in xxxx industry. Iunderstand that xxxx university is famous for xxxx, it has established a great r eputation in thexxx industry with lots of graduates from becoming leaders in the field. I want to become one ofthem, and therefore, I am very interested and keen to be involve d in your university… 译文：我是某某大学某某专业毕业的学生，想申请贵校的某某专业。我对某某专业很感兴趣，希望将来能成为这个行业的专家。我知道贵校的这个专业十分出名，在业界有很高的声誉，也培养了很多此行业的精英。我想成为此行列中的一员，所以我很想成为贵校的一份子，在该专业领域深造。 分析：这个开头的语言简练，并以第一人称为主，能让招生老师一目了然。留学生们切记，开头段不要写太长太复杂的句子，因为长难句不仅会显得啰嗦，还会让人失去阅读兴趣。 留学个人陈述模板的主体部分 需要开始阐述留学生的学术背景，如果有工作经验的话，需要描述一下工作背景如何和此专业相关 英文模板例文如下： My preparation for your programme has been expansive and thorough. First, I have a sol idbackground in xxx and xxx. Second, during my undergraduate years, I joined a club cal led xxxwith the focus on xxx. Our projects dealt with xxx, and other xxx. My work outsid e the campus,in job placements through xxx university, granted me excellent opportuniti es for real-worldexperience. While exploring the possibility of graduate-level work, I discovered that my interests are perfectlymatched with your programme. My interest in xxx, especially, was piqued during my xxx class.The aspects of the xxx fascinated me and made me long to supervise a lar ge project in this fieldone day. Although I realise my current limitations, my whole-hearte d enthusiasm, combined withguidance from your exceptional faculty, will carry me throug h the rigors of studying and forge meinto an expert xxx after the one/two year master co
Personal Statement For nearly one year, when all other colleagues had gone back home after work or to the bars for relaxation, I kept myself busy with the designing, programming, and refactoring work. W hen I got home every day after ten o’clock in the nig ht, I would read papers of XXX and continue for seeking the universities and professors attractive to me until one o’clock in the morning. My sense of responsibility for the company made me obliged to finish all the projects in my hands before I leave for America. And my yearning for the free American environment which is easy to inspire researchers’ potential made me willing to live such hard life under much greater pressure. Although over two years’ software development work in Beijing Grandsoft Technolo gy Co., Ltd has already helped me accumulate considerable experience in software programming and designing and make some achievements admirable in others’ eyes, I, who will be promoted as a senior development engineer, know clearly that only the xxx program in your department can fully exert my strength and make my pursuit come true. I know that I belong to the kind of people who are able to better realize the life values and meaningfulness while doing certain interesting things, who enjoy challenges and thinking and who are always in pursuit of creative ideas. However, the work I was taking up now is almost always repetition of what has already existed. That’s why I gave up the achievement without hesitation. I know that I will be able to master the most advanced technology and thoughts in the xxx program. In such a bright and promising field, I believe I will be able to inspire all my ability in facing challenges, and finally become a top talent to make contributions to the development in the field. Moreover, my studying and working experiences make me very confident in myself to believe that I have got the ability and potential to realize my pursuit. I became interested in computer science in Chongqing Nankai Middle School, a school emphasizing cultivating personal interests. But my unusual performance in the National Entrance Examination failed me for entering the Department of Computer Science of Tsinghua University. Being clear of my interest and goal, I spent quite a lot of time in computer science besides the basic courses required by the university. Although I didn’t gain an extraordinary GPA, I succeeded in transferring to the School of Software. Afterwards, my GPA continued increasing and my foundation in the major was consolidated. I have a good habit in learning and working. No matter how great the pressure was, I would stick to my studies after work. And I finished reading books like Interconnection Networks - An Engineering Approach and reviewed (Introduction to Algorithms, Computer Networks, Database Systems Concepts) twice. In addition, I am very creative. I could solve the instability in file transmission by using FTP/HTTP method instead of the original Web Service/COM+ method to cope with different network situations after independent
Personal Statement My decision of studying in finance field is very natural and I firmly believe that I will be one part of this industry, even elite. Before this dream comes true, a long way is in front of me, and a key station on this road is pursuing master degree in finance field in your prestigious university. Financial management has brought me much sense of accomplishment and enjoyment. In terms of knowledge, I have learnt many core modules finance field, e.g. Financial Management, Statistics, Accounting Cost, Intermediate Financial Accounting, Advanced Financial Management, Money and Banking, and Financial Analysis and so forth. Due to my strong interest and hard working, I become one of the top ten students in terms of specialized modules and the Second Prize Scholarship. Besides, my mathematics ability is good to be capable of being successful in future finance study and working. In addition to these, what the more important for me is the study and research capabilities. Critical and proactive thinking and research by referring various references such as the latest information and classic academic books are much more crucial. Admittedly, the Britain education on research will help me to get a big step. I prefer to improve myself well-rounded. Therefore, I worked in the Student Union Office to organize the first School Game as team leader, communicating with other departments, negotiating with team members, and plan the schedule. This successful Game is a
PS的写作应该是英国留学申请当中技术含量较高的一环,要到位地描述自己是一件很难的事情。 这套简易的教程主要是希望帮助到达家写好自我陈述，请仔细阅读，并按照这个步骤进行，你将能轻松度过这个写作关。 在进行PS写作之前，我们希望大家对专业及学校已经有了清晰的认识和明确的定位。 总体而言，英国的留学文书是非常具有针对性的，所以如果你决定转专业的话还需要重新再写PS。 以下的教程紧紧是一个指导和参考，同学们不要太死板地一步步套用，你可能有比任何教程都要到位的办法去自我营销，你可以有自己的行文结构以及自己的语言风格去表达自己，这一点当然童鞋们自己是比任何人都清楚的。 一、英国留学PS(personal statement)的主旨 很多英国大学无需面试申请人，所以他们唯一认识你的地方就是UCAS form(英国大学网上申请表格)。大部分表格涵盖了你的个人信息，包括大学感兴趣的你的学术/语言成绩、推荐信以及PS(留学个人陈述)。 PS(留学个人陈述)是这些材料当中唯一一个由你来控制的，所以这个是你给大学招生办留下一个良好印象的机会，这个印象是用分数无法反映出来的。尤其是当你申请的学校竞争特别激烈，所有的申请者都有很好的成绩的时候，PS就是唯一一种能凸显你的与众不同的材料，所以同志们，一定要尽可能地把PS 做到尽善尽美。 大学招生办和课程老师在看你的PS的时候，他们通常会问以下两个问题： 1、我们是否想要这个学生来学习这门课程? 2、我们是否想要这个学生来我们的学校学习? 这两个问题可以分解为以下几个小问题来解答： 1)这个学生是否适合他/她所申请的课程? 2)这个学生是否具备他/她所申请的课程需要的素质? 3)这个学生是否有足够的毅力、勤奋的品格以及不会轻易辍学? 4)这个学生是否会全力以赴地达到这门课程所要求的各项能力? 5)这个学生是否能在高压底下工作? 6)这个学生是否能很快得调整好自己融入到大学的新环境? 7)他们的交际能力如何?
Personal Statement A desirable career should be the one where people lay their passions and interests, and meanwhile this career should be able to widen their visions, enrich their lives and ultimately fulfill their aspirations to realize life values. The legal profession, I reckon, is the ideal career in line with all my life pursuit. Currently, with my undergraduate study approaching the end, I would like to apply for further study in your LL.M. program to enrich my knowledge base and build up my critical thinking skills to prepare myself to launch a successful legal career. My undergraduate study in Minzu University of China has proved to be fruitful and colorful. As a self-motivated student, I have spared no pains to equip myself with specialist knowledge and practical skills. Thanks to my unremitting efforts, I have built a firm academic grounding about jurisprudence, criminal law, civil law, commercial law and etc, and scored an exemplary average score of 89.5%, ranking me the first in the whole grade comprised of about 100 students. Moreover, by frequently attending the moot courts and drafting a range of legal documents, I significantly harnessed my verbal and writing skills, and gradually sharpened my insight into China’s judicial system. Furthermore, I have double majored in English, and thereby greatly improved my English proficiency, which enabled me to effectively acquire the knowledge pertaining to international economic law, international law, international private law, and so forth, and thereby consolidated my resolution to pursue further study in a programme which is delivered in English. Besides my endeavors to solidify academic knowledge, I have thrown myself into a stream of research projects. Among those examples I could cite would be my experience in carrying out the national-level undergraduate innovation training programme titled Fire Protection Regulations of Villages of the Miao Nationality-a Case Study about Xijiang Village Leishan County Guizhou Province. Starting from conducting investigations and interviewing residents in that village, our team collected plentiful data, and studied the pros and cons of current regulations. After consulting professional literatures and seeking advices from scholars& experts, we proposed our suggestions about improving current regulations to better protect villagers’lives and properties. In recognition of the practical value of our research, our project was awarded as the Excellent Project, and our research paper will soon be published in the 2nd Issue of Journal of Original Ecological National Culture. By undertaking those researches, for one thing, I have largely broadened my intellectual horizon; for another, I enhanced my skills in data collection, analysis and interpretation of results to conduct productive researches, which, in my opinion, will

美国留学申请如何写个人陈述 什么是个人陈述 个人陈述是在申请过程中按照学校要求来写一篇有关申请人背景,学术成就和未来研究和职业目标的文章。一篇成功的个人陈述不但应该语言流畅,逻辑严谨,层次分明,更要充分显示申请人的才华并抓住审阅人的注意力。几乎所有学校都要求提交个人陈述。 个人陈述也有不同的名称,如Personal Statement,Statement of Purpose,Statement of Intent, Statement of Objectives, Academic Statement,Study Plan,Academic Objectives等。 个人陈述应当包含以下内容： （一）申请者的学术或专业兴趣及背景； （二）欲研究的方向； （三）未来的职业目标。 如果个人陈述写作得当,可以很大程度地提高申请者获得录取和奖学金的机会。这对申请者来说是一个绝好的机会。可惜的是很多申请者对TOEFL、GRE可谓呕心沥血,而对个人陈述往往一蹴而就,敷衍了事,内容贫乏、语法错误连篇。而西方的大学并不单是通过传统的考试来考评其申请者的资格,这并不是说他们的录取标准不严格。外国教授在决定你是否正是他们想要的人时,首先希望听一听你对于你自己作何评价。当你通过申请文书来介绍你自己时,你会发现所面临的机遇和挑战同样之大。 要写出成功的申请文书仅仅有那些适用于任何类型写作的基本写作技巧（清晰、简洁）是远远不够的。一篇好的申请文书要求申请人能够用一种与其他申请人完全不同方式,巧妙地展现自己的独特个性和经验。这是一件要求比较高,通常非常繁累的工作。这不仅仅对中国人如此,以英语为母语的人在此类写作时也会感到十分的头疼,但是我们中国人还需克服语言的障碍。 美国留学申请如何写个人陈述 个人陈述的内容应包含下列三项资料： （一）申请者的学术或专业兴趣及背景； （二）欲研究的方向； （三）未来的职业目标； 写作时,依以上三点将文章分为三个主要部分。不要像列清单,也不要重覆申请表格已有的资料。 注意事项： （一）详读学校的写作说明并了解问题的重点,不赘言,不遗漏,且在要求的字数内完成。例如学校要求五百字内完成(In 500 words or less discuss ...),则全文最好不要超过五百字。如果学
牛津大学商科留学个人陈述范例 留学个人陈述是申请英国留学文书中的重要组成部分，在硬件条件相当的申请人相互竞争时，提供一份令人印象深刻、能表现申请人个人特质的留学个人陈述无疑能为申请加分。下面是由“出国汇”（百度一下）的指导下学员制作的一份成功申请到英国牛津大学商科的留学个人陈述，大家一起来看看作者的写作有何值得借鉴的地方吧! Since a very young age - where all my friends were aspiring to become firemen, astronauts and rockstars - I have always dreamed of wearing a suit to work. I don…t know what it was, but I guess I just identified all these men as being the real players in the world - driving fast cars and hitting it off with beautiful women. These guys - the lawyers, entrepreneurs and accountants - were all sipping champagne and living the high life. Of course, you don?t have to wear a suit to be making money (look at Steve Jobs, for example), it…s not all fun and games, and you have to be damn good at what you do, but my ambitions have remained the same. This is what I want to be, but money is no longer the sole object, in my opinion. This has stemmed from my upbringing, where every morning CNN is put on the TV, stock portfolios lie in messy stacks around the house and political conversation runs rife at the dinner table. Every day I would hear my father talking about his business ventures and garnered a great interest. To me, the business world seemed entirely different to our regular one: it was a grandiose battlefield of thousands of opposing teams –a vicious free for all where the only objective was to win. Language like “slaughtering the competition” was frequently used, and I instantly knew that this game was more intense than any sport, more exciting tha n any video game and more fulfilling than any hobby. I once even tried my hand at business of my own –selling gumballs at school –which, to my surprise, was rather successful, if short-lived (regulated into the ground). By the time I was beginning my IGCSE year I was absolutely itching to take a Business & Management course. I felt a lot of it come naturally to me, remembering all the terms and advice I had heard from my father. All along it was extremely satisfying to know that whilst I would hardly use anyth ing I had learnt in math’s (unless I need to know the exact angle that my ladder is at), no matter what profession I would take, I could apply this. I took part in stock competitions, both in and outside of school, in an attempt to better my understanding of the seemingly confusing concept of stock exchange. One of the most interesting aspects of business for me is international markets, which then extends into economics. I have often been told that one of my most valuable qualities is that I am tri-cultural, coming from an extremely interesting background. I have lived in Spain my entire life, with an American mother and English father, who is a chartered accountant and previously owned a successful record label; he
哈佛大学个人陈述PS三篇优秀范文示例 撰写留学文书最难的部分是personal statement（PS），我们可以通过以下三篇优秀的哈佛大学优秀essay来了解下，如何撰写高质量的文章。 第一篇申请美国哈佛大学的Essay范文，以音乐才能为主题，采用的是场景描述式来制造戏剧冲突，引起读者注意。Essay题材类型为talent。Essay短文讲述了作者的才能：Music。 "A special Performance" I stood behind the curtains listening to the applause to the previous act. I exhaled, realizing that this was a moment that fulfilled my childhood wish. Tonight was special because instead of an alto aria or a jazz lick, I had prepared a song unique to my identity. I curled my fingers around the microphone and waited impatiently as the curtains opened. My love for performance stemmed from my appreciation of music as a child. In the city in China where I spent the first ten years of my life, I never found a choir to join and never laid eyes on a grand piano. Nonetheless, I treasured my passion for song and sought ways to bring music into my life. I sang with our old record player when I was barely tall enough to reach it. On certain afternoons, my best friend and I would tape bed sheets to the ceiling as curtains and invite neighbors to come listen. There, we sang in duet, danced, and bowed while clasping each other's hands. Captured in our own musical sanctuary, we never noticed the hours that passed by. Music evokes in me the emotions that words and pictures cannot. I also revel in the intellectual challenges that music offers. I find it thrilling to tackle difficult, delicious repertoire, and I enjoy composing my own melodies. Through music, I can share and celebrate my past. When I was asked to share my cultural talents at my high school, I looked for a song that my mother sang when I was young, but I could not find the sheet music. A week before tonight, I sat down by the old piano in the practice room at school. With only the old tune ringing faintly in my mind, my hands soon took a life of their own and experimented with chords, arpeggios, and trills. I superimposed these on the original melody and composed variations. My voice, too, frolicked with the piano as I sang the tune repeatedly. I was lost in another musical paradise. I felt like a child again, tucked under the covers, listening to my mother's song as I drifted away to dreams. Now, dressed in an old Chinese dress that my mother had worn in her youth, I stepped onto the empty stage illuminated by pale blue light. I held the microphone up to my lips and smiled before starting. Then, I brought to life the beautiful ballad that had brightened my childhood in China. My mind overflowed with warm memories of that faraway city as I lulled the audience with my melody. When I caught my mother's face in the audience, I knew she nestled in the same air of nostalgia. Music allows me to present my native culture and contribute to the diversity in my community. It has stimulated my mind and provided an outlet for my creativity. To me, nothing is more pleasurable than being imaginative. Carrying my childhood love of music through my teenage years has been a gratifying experience, and I look forward to continuing in my undergraduate years.
