Hobbies
So yeah, that looks good on paper, but I'm actually a person too. I love to dance and never lost sight of my eagerness to be emerged in the arts, even with all the math and science I was taking. I switched my major to English because I still desired to express myself. But a real passion for me is teaching. I've always held onto what my grandfather told me--learning is so important because that's the one thing that the world can't take from you. If I can empower more to believe this, with an unbreakable confidence in obtaining more knowledge, I will have fulfilled one of my purposes.
