I can clearly remember when I was ten years old I was transferred from the elementary school in the countryside to the school in the city, far away from my home. I had no choice but to live in one of my relatives’ near my school. This transition changed me a lot and even formed the foundation of what I am today. Before I went to the city, I was a naughty child caring nothing but play. I had many friends of similar age to me. We played together and had a lot fun. But after, this situation was totally changed because the atmosphere in the city was far different from that in the countryside. For the students from city always looked down on those from the countryside. I felt the cold shoulder for the first time in my life: I had no friends, no fun, but solitude, and even some bad guys called me “clodhopper” sometimes, which greatly injured my self-esteem. I could do nothing but studied hard to be an outstanding student. This is why I was so excellent in elementary school study. And also through this way, I won the esteem from my classmates, and even teachers. More important, during this period, I began to be adapted to solitude little by little. Then I learned how to use the time effectively and how to control myself, which greatly exceeded the students of the same age with me. Till now, I still benefit from these.
