沒有人想像過這個出身平凡、貌不驚人、不過爾爾的我，竟然有幸可以考入香港的頂級女子中學，更在各個領域獲得卓越的成就，甚至成為香港傑出學生選舉得獎者之一。我由衷感激所有在我人生路上出現過的人，感謝你們塑造了今天的我。我亦十分慶幸學校發掘了我的潛能，讓我能把握各個機會綻放光彩。最感恩的是家人在經濟和情感上對我的支持，全賴他們，我才能放開心胸去追尋夢想。正因為有你們每一個人，我的生命才會如此精彩和具意義。

許多人看見我臉上總掛着燦爛的笑容，便以為我的人生路極為平坦。事實上，我的人生並非表面看來那麼順利，小學六年級時當我知道沒有得到我夢寐以求的中學取錄時，我感覺自己被整個世界遺棄，十分沮喪。隨即，我難以置信地被一連串挫敗所折磨：在溜冰表演時跌倒，讓全場捧腹大笑；在學界跳遠比賽中跳出了「個人最差」的成績，使家人失望；在手球錦標賽中射失了無數的球，令球隊輸掉。然而，這亦是我人生的轉捩點。我在經歷過這些挫折後變得更堅強，勇於接受失敗和不斷反省自己，竟感受到有一股動力不斷推進自己超越極限。最終，我幸運地被拔萃女書院取錄作為插班生，我的人生才重回正軌。從此以後，我以不屈不朽的態度向目標進發，甚至直到現在，儘管一直未能夠在跳遠比賽中稱霸，但我決心要繼續練習跳遠，直到有一天能夠達到個人最佳的目標距離。

我明白「努力讀書，應付公開試」是每一名中學生的責任。但對我來說，每天全天候溫習的生活實在過於枯燥，所以我選擇積極參加不同的課外活動，以放鬆身心。與隊友練習手球、挑戰自己編寫一個有意義的應用程式及籌備團契聚會的同時我不但可暫時放下讀書壓力以獲取到課本以外的知識和技能，也能擴闊社交圈子，並學習到不同的溝通技巧。因此，這些活動能否獲取顯赫的成就從來都不是我的主要目標，因為我相信不論是什麼活動，也能促進身心健康、紓解壓力以及教曉我做人的道理，使我能在未來極具競爭的社會中大放異彩。

我深深感受到上帝對我宏厚的恩典，使我能夠過着無憂無慮的生活、有機會接受優質的教育、有權利追隨自己的目標。這種無憂無慮的生活使我思考人生意義，並得出一個結論：我不應該只讓別人、或者自己的成就來定義自己，反而應該追隨自己的心，讓自己尋找真正的快樂，使人生活得有意義。從服務社區弱勢群體的經歷中，我盼望為別人帶來祝福，盼望為被剝削的人爭取權益也盼望用技術和知識幫助有需要的人。藉著對醫療領域的興趣，我想成為一位無國界醫生，服務那些因負擔不起醫藥費而得不到適當治療的人，讓他們討回脫離痛苦疾病的基本人權，讓他們過着應有的舒適生活。冀盼有一天，我微不足道的貢獻會促進整個世界向前邁進。為了實現這夢想，我對知識的渴求將永無盡頭，以裝備好自己去服務他人！[/vc_column_text][tek_button button_text=”返回” button_style=”tt_primary_button” button_color_scheme=”btn_primary_color” button_hover_state=”” button_icon_bool=”no” button_action=”button-action-link” button_link=”url:http%3A%2F%2F159.89.198.89%2Fyoutharch-web%2Fzh-hant%2Fpast-awardees%2F|||” button_position=”button-center”][vc_empty_space][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row]

No one could envisages that I, a normal girl from an ordinary family, could ever get into a top-tier secondary school can achieve distinguishably high performance in various fields, and even become one of the Winners of the Hong Kong Outstanding Students Award. I am the most grateful to everyone who is supportive to me and shaped me into who I am today. I could shine through the opportunities granted me today. Above all, I am only heartened to follow my dreams owing to all the financial and spiritual support from my family. My life would not have been so amazing and meaningful if I were alone.

Many people think that I have lived an easy life all the way. In fact, my life has not been always that smooth. The tragic nightmare began when I was in primary six. Immediately upon being notified that I was not accepted by my dream secondary school, I felt like it was the end of the world. Then, I was haunted by a series of dreadful events, I fell down during an ice skating performance, I jumped a distance of “personal worst” in the inter-school long jump competition and I missed so many shots in a handball tournament. Yet, this was the turning point of my life. It is through experiencing these failures in my life that I become stronger. After I accepted my failures and reflected upon myself, I was motivated to push myself past my limits. Finally, I was fortunate enough to transfer to Diocesan Girls’ School. Since then, I have transformed into a very persistent person who chases after goals ceaselessly. Even at the present, although I am not even good enough to capture a prize in long jump competitions, I am determined to keep practicing long jump until I am able to reach my target distance one day.

As a secondary school student, I am told that my responsibility is to study hard for the public examination. However, life would be too dull to only study and that is why I actively participate in extra-curricular activities. I find myself enjoying those activities so much that I can put down all my academic burdens and relax a bit through practicing handball, to code a meaningful mobile application, and to spread the Gospel through organizing Youth Fellowship meetings. Through these activities, I am not only able to acquire knowledge and skills cannot be found in textbooks, I have also expanded my social circle by increasing my exposure to the community, and hence to enhance my communication skills. Thus, succeeding in all these activities is never my main goal. I believe that they have strengthened my physical and mental health, relieved my stress and taught me the right way of living, which will equip myself better to flourish in the competitive world in the future.

I am deeply touched by God’s grace that I am able to live a carefree life without having to worry about living. I feel so blessed to have the chance to receive good education, to pursue my interests, and to accomplish my goals. My prosper has made me wonder what is the meaning of life. After deep thought, I come to a conclusion that I should not let other people or even my achievements define myself. I should follow my will and find the true source of happiness. From the experiences of serving the underprivileged, I realize that I want to bring bless to others, I want to do something for the deprived and I want to apply my skills and knowledge and offer help to the needy. In view of my interests in the medical field, I want to become a doctor and work in Doctors Without Borders. I want to repay the basic human right of being free from pain and illnesses, especially for those who do not even have the opportunity to receive medication due to poverty. I wish that one day, my minuscule contributions to the needy could make a significant change in the world. With this clear vision in my mind, my thirst for knowledge would be perpetual to prepare the best of me to pursue my dreams![/vc_column_text][tek_button button_text=”Back” button_style=”tt_primary_button” button_color_scheme=”btn_primary_color” button_hover_state=”” button_icon_bool=”no” button_action=”button-action-link” button_link=”url:http%3A%2F%2F159.89.198.89%2Fyoutharch-web%2Fpast-awardees%2F|||” button_position=”button-center”][vc_empty_space][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row]
