Self-Evaluation (Revised)

  I’m regarded as an optimistic and polite person.  Every day I wear a smile on my face and say thank you to whoever helps me.  I believe that if my classmates see my smile, they’re also in a good mood and it’s more likely for me to achieve everything successfully.  Therefore, I was elected as politeness model by my classmates.  Also, I believe in the creed that look on the bright sight.  As I’m faced with difficulties or my failures, I always try to hold an optimistic heart and try to figure out the best solution.  Plus, I’m a positive student.  I attend many English competitions to improve my English ability and enrich my experiences.  To my surprise, I won the stunning performances in the first year and the third in my second year in English composition contest of my school.  Besides, I always do everything with all my might.  It’s my belief that the more effort I make, the more likely I will succeed.  In high school, I spend lots of time learning English along with my second language, Japanese.  I not only do my best to remember lots of new vocabulary and grammar but also read some books to enhance Japanese culture. 

I not only work hard on my school work but also participate actively in my extracurricular activities. In my pastime, I like to read novels, watch animation cartoons and movies, and listen to English and Japanese songs.  I like to read novels, for I enjoy regarding myself as the main character in novels so that I can experience different lifestyles and stories.  After reading every novel, I can grasp what the novels tell about, learn some good sentences in novels, and stimulate my imagination to improve my writing skills.  Besides, I prefer to watch movies, cartoons, and listen to songs not only because I can feel relaxed but because I can improve my English and Japanese listening ability.  As for my specialty, I’m good at playing the Trombone and recorders.  I played the recorders with my classmates in elementary school, and played the Trombone in junior high school.  Every time I practiced with my classmates, I felt relaxed and content with the melodious songs.  Also, I treasured the moment we performed and the happiness on the audience’s face.
