准备申请大学的四个月左右的时间是我高中生活里成长最多,收获最多的一段时间。首先,在活动准备和标化考试准备的过程中,我受尽挫折。刚开始的我总是对自己获得的成绩感到失望,我认为这样的成绩辜负了我自己在过程中的一切投入。我开始自我怀疑,对待差强人意的结果充满愤怒。但是我的申学顾问总是在背后鼓励我,“你的成绩不错呀,不要给自己太大的压力;这只是你高中生活的一个小片段“等等,总之,在她的支持下,我不再回头计较着自己的成绩——既然事情已经过去了,我在过程中也努力了,那就放下这件事情,专注去完成眼前的任务。确实如此,在申请结束之后,我回头想想那段纠结的日子,也没什么大不了的,因为我努力过,坚持过,体验过也有了收获,既然如此,所有的结果都是最好的安排。其次,准备文书也让我重新审视了自己。刚开始在头脑风暴文书主题时,我陷入了迷茫——我觉得自己没什么亮点,也没有什么特别之处可以让我在无数优秀的申请者中脱颖而出,但用Chris的话来讲“参加过印度领导力课程的同学很多,会打架子鼓的同学很多,喜欢通过美食来体验新的文化的同学也很多,但把这三个放在一起,那就只有你一个人。”,听了Chris的话我突然就领悟了,我不需要有什么独一无二的特点和经历,因为我已经是一个独一无二的个体了,我所需要做的就是在文书里真诚地通过一个故事来介绍自己。申请大学必定是一个让人痛苦的过程,但是当我在申请中学会专注自己,专注于当下时,我就已经收获了属于高中阶段的宝贵财富了。我不知道这些心路历程会不会在我的人生中留下浓墨重彩的一笔,但我现在可以清晰地告诉自己,“痛苦”是值得的,是可以换来收获的。
The four months or so of preparing to apply for university was the time I grew most in my high school life. First of all, in the process of preparing for extracurricular activities and the standardized tests, I suffered all the setbacks. At the beginning, I was always disappointed with the results I got. I thought that such results failed all my efforts and concentration in the process. I began to doubt myself, and was full of anger at the unsatisfactory results. But my application consultant always encouraged me , "You have good grades; don’t put too much pressure on yourself; this is just a small fragment of your high school life." Anyway, with her support, I didn't look back -because it had passed, and I had worked hard in the process, then i should just let it go and focus on completing the present task. After the application was over, I thought about my struggles in those days. It’s no big deal anymore, since I worked hard, persisted, and gained from the experience. In this case, all the results are the best arrangements. Secondly, preparing the paperwork also made me re-examine myself. When I first started brainstorming on the subject of the essay, I was lost-I felt that I had no shining points, and nothing special that would make me stand out, but in the words of Chris, "Many students may have participated in an Indian leadership program, or can play drums, or like to experience new culture through food, but if we put these three together, then you are the only one." After listening to Chris, I suddenly I realized that I didn't need to have any unique characteristics and experiences, because I am already a unique individual. All I need to do is to sincerely introduce myself through a story in the document. Applying for a university is a painful process, but when I learn to focus on myself and focus on the present, I have already reaped the most valuable thing in my high school. I don't know if these mental journeys will leave a strong mark in my life, but I can tell myself clearly now that "pain" is worthwhile and can be rewarded.
总之,上课专心听讲,用新技能丰富课余生活以及自我认可和把握眼前是我高中三年自我提升过程的收获。即将迎来的大学生活也是我高中的收获之一,但不是我人生阶段的某个终点,从高中过渡到大学更像是从一个属于我的熟悉的环境前往一个将会属于我的未知的新环境,一切都会变但是一切归属的主人公不变。我想,带着自己满意的最终成绩,充满能量的生活习惯和自我反思自我认可的能力毕业,最好的高中经历也莫过于此了吧!
In short, being focused in class, an enriching after-school life, self-recognition, and living in the present are the fruits of my three-year self-improvement in high school. The upcoming college life is also one of the gains of my high school, but it is not the end of one of my life stage. The transition from high school to college is more like going from a familiar environment that belongs to me to an unknown that will belong to me as well. In this new environment, everything will change but the protagonist is still me. I came to know who I am. This is my wonderful high school experience.
