All About Me Revision

Ruthless in the ring, I stalk my prey, waiting for the kill. 
Bloody nose and cloudy vision, I weave under the left hook.
Right to the body then right uppercut to the chin, lights our for my opponent. 
In the ring I have one goal, to punch the soul out of my opponent's body and stop him. 
No matter how man times I've been hit, no matter how badly it hurts, I do everything to win.
I learned determination the hard way. 
I spent two years in Taiwan, nine years in Japan and 10 years in America.
My English was broken from middle school to high school. 
People made fun of me. 
I was a C- average student in middle school.
As a C average student in high school I learned how to fail. 
It's easy to fail but hard to grow from it. 
At Lynbrook High School, where a B average was same as a failure and I was seen as a student without hope. 
I was at the bottom.
Being at the bottom the only way I could go was up. 
No matter how dark the bottom was, I was able to see the light at the top. 
Entering senior year in high school, I told myself I'm going to be a B student and I'm going to put 150 percent into everything. 
I began to put more effort in and did more than the person next to me. 
If the person next to me spent two hours to study then I put in four hours. 
Slowly but surely I began to climb. 
As I took each step, I gave myself a pat on the back and reminded myself that it is a process.
Each success I gained, I celebrated by challenging myself more. 
Now I'm a specialist at Apple, Spartan Daily advertising staff and an instructor of Dreamland Boxing Club.
It's just the beginning of the process.
