200 IM @ 2020 Sp...
200 Breaststroke ...Personal Statement
From the very beginning of my swim career and school, I can describe myself for being a focused person. I will always be up for a challenge, try my hardest every practice or test, and I always try to be the best version of myself. As a teammate, I think I have a great personality because I am trying to help and also motivate my teammates in both practice and competitions. Being focused on my own goals makes me a great candidate because I know that I will always try my hardest to achieve my personal goals and I also do everything to help my team as a role. Every team I have been to I have always had an amazing relationship with coaches and teammates and I believe that it had helped me learn a lot.
When It comes to academics, I also a rally focused person. I try to think that school is a very long challenge and every year is something different and harder than I have to make the most out of it. Since the beginning of my studies in the USA, I ave always had great grades even though I have a language barrier. I very proud of the path I have come so far and I hope I can continue doing my bets in both swimming and school.

I was really proud of my times even though most of them were not the best times (except 200 breast and 200 IM). I was able to compete with girls older than me and I think this really pushed me.
