1. Greatest lesson learned from someone else:

One of the greatest lessons that I have learned  is from my mom. She taught me how to be patient, resilient, and open-minded. When I was 11 years old, my dad’s company relocated us from our home of Singapore to the United States, and later on when I was 16 to China. My mother gave up her job to follow my dad’s career and became a stay-at-home mom instead. Her dedication to our family is something I’ve always respected and her strength to support us through ups and downs across the world will always inspire me.

2. What you have learned about yourself in class:

What I have learned about myself in class is that I’m more of a hands-on learner. I don’t learn well in lectures, or through books. I also have a short attention span and have trouble paying attention for longer than thirty minutes.
