Autobiography Final

My name is Chen yu-ju, born in a sound, sweet family. My family lives in harmony and tends to express concern and love to one another. My parents have taught me in a strict way since my childhood. They award me for the good and punish me for the bad respectively. On the one hand, when I do good deeds, they encourage and praise me in public. Some parents never do this for their children so I think it is worth mentioning. On the other hand, if I behave badly, they always clarify the matter first, explain the wrong, and punish me reasonably. My father plans in advance and has things done step by step; therefore, he works efficiently and is capable of solving problems of family. My mother, who is considerate, offers me warmness and teaches me with patience.
“A word aptly spoken is like apples of gold in silver settings” is what my parents remind me. They tell me that speaking plays an important part in connection of people. How to speak properly is the lesson I have to learn throughout my life.
I learned English early for my parents made me watch foreign cartoons and let me join the English drama during kindergarten, which brought about my interest in English when I was a child. Moreover, I have a grandmother educated under Japanese, who pays much attention to herself. She wants me to be a gentle lady, too; actually, she is a model in my heart. Owning to the care from my family, as the only daughter, I’ll try my best to do what is expected of me and not to worry them.


Owing to my early interest in English, I studied at Department of Applied Foreign Language in National Tainan Commercial Vocational Senior High School. These two years, not only could I concentrate on my favorite language, with teachers’ instruction, but I also regained my interest in math though I once disliked it. English was originally my favorite subject; with the help of teachers and the passion I have had for learning language, I’m glad that my effort paid off. I passed General English Proficiency Test for the intermediate level in my second year in high school.
As for the club I attended, I joined the English ABC club as soon as I entered the senior high school in order to improve my English level. We had to learn vocabularies of a chapter every week. Sometimes we also took exams and used the software of English contest. At first, I really confused whether my English ability would make progress or not. Finally, I even attended the word competition in school for class, which I got achievement from it.
I have had the experience of serving as vice bulletin board designer since my junior high. Since I was interested in comic painting, teachers tended to encourage me to serve for class. As a bulletin board designer, I had to remove my eyesight from comic characters to the huge board, and learn the duty division and collaboration. In the past, the comic I created was my own works, while designing post was cooperation. During the process, I was taught the concept of giving the right to others. No matter how great I could draw, I couldn’t do every thing on my own; collaboration could reduce some odds and ends, make me focus on the whole aspect, and represent my confidence to classmates as well. In addition, by recording the process of meeting in class, I gradually learned the skills of writing official papers. I really appreciated that my teachers in junior placed me in a proper position, made me do my utmost in interest and hobbies and finally made progress mentally and physically. Through the previous experience, I could serve as bulletin board designer at ease. Besides, such as speaking on the platform, calculating the budget of materials, and the various duty assignment of different topics, are the sections I still have to improve.


I have great interest in learning language. It is the process of learning and studying language that appeals to me. So far, I have been studying Chinese and English for a long time. And Japanese is the one that I started to learn two years ago. I am also in favor of listening to music, which can be combined with language learning. On the one hand, I can develop both the two hobbies. On the other hand, I can also use it as a tool to improve my listening and speaking of English and Japanese. As for Chinese, I can learn the wording and phrasing as well. At the present time, I make good performance in English listening and reading at school. With the enthusiasm about English, I want to study more and have deep learning in language.
Speaking of my specialty, I can’t help talking about Chinese composition and comic drawing, especially the characters of comics. Sometimes I attend the pertinent contests and send my works to relatives and friends with the coming of holiday or their birthday. In addition, I regard myself as a responsible person. I always do my best when being appointed. Once a teacher asked me to convey message, not only did I tell the person, but I also made sure that he did finished what the teacher told. People who work besides me  know my reliability. After all, I believe that trust is the root of all relationship. Furthermore, I form a habit of keeping diary. As I consider that it can make me question my daily behavior. And it’s true that moderate introspection can give me direction in life.
When it comes to my philosophy, I tend to be independent. I’ll adhere to my goal as no one can carry out dreams for me, even family can only back me up. Therefore, no matter effort or time I should pay, I will do step by step to reach my ideal.


In the modern society, it is essential to have great language ability. Interested in the learning of language for a long time, I hope to take advanced course of language so as to communicate with people from different countries. Aside from developing my own interest, entering the National Taiwan University of Science and Technology can improve my chances of future. In the next four years, I want to make progress in listening, speaking, writing and reading, every aspect of English, and I’d like to pass the GEPT for a higher stage. Furthermore, learning Japanese is also my goal. After having enough communicative skills and basic knowledge of hospitality, I feel like traveling to Japan with family, carrying out the long-held dream of my elderly grandmother. In addition, being an interpreter or editor is my ideal job. My dearest wish is to combine my writing and painting abilities with my language technique and publish my own work. Being admitted in NTUST can help me reach my yearnings. Anyway, I just want to transfer or create what I think is good to people, as a way I express my gratitude to the society that brings me up.


Conclusion
With my warm family and valuable experience and memories in school days, I hope that I can make good advantage of what I have been learning in the future. In addition to challenge myself, enrich my knowledge, and help people alike, I want to show thanks to those who had given me a hand. To sum up, I hope that my qualification will affirm that I am a competitive applicant.
