Information about myself: I am 22 years old( Sept.9, 1992). I was born and raised in South Korea. Came to America in December of 2009 got into Cedar Park Christian

high school as freshman in 2nd semester. After graduation of high school in 2012, i enrolled Bellevue College and tried to figure out what i want to major. Finally i

could decide my major, which is International Studies specifically Asia. Because i realized that i enjoy talking with foreign people about culture, languages, and

foods. Even i want to know about the diplomatic relationship between my country and other countries. My career goal is to get a degree of International Studies and

become an international exporter. From Bellevue College, i will get associate degree in end of March 2015. By the way, i want writer to focus about my parents’ divorce

which had huge influence on my life and by that how i changed myself.

Lastly writer can refer my previous essay.

When I first entered middle school in Korea, I remember being confused as to why my brother and I had to decide whether we wanted to live with our father or mother.

Surely I complained about my parents constant bickering, but I had difficulty understanding why we could not all live together. Although a painful experience, it was

through my parents divorce that helped me to learn the virtues of selflessness and leadership.
Before the divorce, I craved both attention and materialistic possessions. I was adamant in obtaining what I wanted and complained until my desires were satisfied. For

instance, when my parents refused to buy me the same toy or game that they gave to my younger brother I would cry, refuse to eat and pester my brother daily. My

parents felt sorry for me and eventually bought the product. As a result, I often took advantage of my parents generosity with little regard for their feelings.
After the separation however I felt extreme sadness and did not want other people to know about my parents separation. It was painful especially when my friends would

sometimes joke and make fun of people’s parents not knowing about my circumstances. Because of my friends’ words I would become depressed and often had to fight back

tears. From this experience, I realized that other people also may have hidden secrets or other emotional scars and became more cautious in how I spoke and acted

towards my family, friends and other people.
As I continued to show respect and become more considerate to the people around me I noticed how individuals began to enjoy my company and treat me with the same

courtesy. Although I initially felt alone when my father left, by thinking less of myself and being a blessing unto others through maintaining a positive attitude and

encouraging friends and family when they were depressed, I noticed my own pain and loneliness diminishing. What’s more I learned how valuable it is of being content

with not only the people, but also the possessions I already had.
By learning the importance of selflessness it also helped me to become a better leader. I never thought about the responsibility as a big brother and oldest son before

I learned the importance of selflessness. Even though my dad always wanted me to become a leader of other people, I had no interest becoming a leader. When I, however

finally learned how to think other people feeling first, automatically I could see myself as a leader of family and leader of school. I joined the National Honors

Society in order to serve myself with my abilities. I had difficult time dealing with my language barrier but I still had to tutor people who need my help. By becoming

the leader of school in an academic way, I learned how to encourage other people and how to help other people with my capability. Due to my consideration for other

peoples feeling, I became a leader of the church youth group as the final way of showing how I have really grown over the years. As a leader of the church youth group,

family, and school, I learned how to negotiate the myriad ideas, favoring harmony rather than conflicts. Just being a leader of many groups, I not only thought about

the responsibilities but also the fairness for every people in order to reconcile majority of group.
By watching my moms devotion to raise me and my brother up properly, I turned away from the wrong actions. Also, I finally became a person who really considers other

peoples feeling first and respects other people as well. Certainly, my parents divorce not only caused me period of resistance but also made me more mature person.

Now, I care about other peoples feeling first and try to respect other people. Therefore, my parents divorce helped me to change my personality from egocentric person

to a person who tries to understand other people and respect other people.
