Recommended: Personal story about an immigrant

After immigrating to Canada in 2013, I lost my best violin teacher, I got nobody to rely on. I was lonely enough that I had thought of giving up on violin, but now I am glad I did not. I made a decision to continue my journey because I realized it was the joy of music that made me overcame nights of finger numbness and hardship, and my violin teacher was just a part of the joy. Ergo, slowly I started to play violin again. Four years ago, I made a decision to preserve in playing violin. Through days of practice, I have enhanced my techniques even without my teacher.
I am a strong believer of taking and giving, so I always volunteer, especially in elderly services sector. As I believe it is my duty to ensure they are happy when they retire from

    I am dedicated to helping out our community and school, because it warms my heart and soul. Seneca said in about 40 to 60 A.D. that you should “be silent as to services you have rendered, but speak of favors you have received.” In other words you should not boast about the numerous projects you have accomplished and how much physical work you executed, but rather pride yourself on how you helped people in community and school, and how you have affected their lives with positive means. I feel life is joyous and it should be the feeling everyone illustrates, and this is exactly what keeps me functioning in the stressful world today. I find comfort in helping others to make their lives a little more like heaven and this comfort motivates me to perform copious service projects to the best of my capability whenever I find the time. Time is fair to the rich, the poor, and to every race, because time is equal and gives everyone 24 hours daily to accomplish their required tasks. Because time is so valuable and I am occupied by difficult advanced placement and honor classes and juggle school, clubs, sports, and friends, I joined Key Club, a high school division of the adult service club, Kiwanis. Key Club opened new doors to make every extra minute count towards helping others.
