Activities and Awards
I put great importance in the activities I do in my spare time. I have been part of a few extracurricular activities for many years, and others I have only recently joined but grew a strong affection for. Regardless of what I am doing, I put all my effort in and in return, I have learned valuable life lessons from my mentors and peers.
