What makes who I am People living in the different group with different personality and identity. The amazing society is composed by the various identity of human. However, what factors enable us to build up and shift our own unique identity. The family, religion, nationality, growth environment, the dilemma, somebody we met, also, sometimes, even an experience of travel, a little word, a sentence, a piece of writing can challenge our identity and have great effort on the building of our identity. For me, the family, nationality and the experience of going abroad have the significant impact on the shaping of my identity. In other word, these factors actually make who I am now.

I was born in a small county and lived there for 11 years. I was chatting, studying and playing with the same people every day because there are only 1 kindergarten and 2 primary school in the county. Most of the students do not invest energy in the study. Therefore, I was neglected to work hard due to the lacking of competition in my little hometown, and I actually did not realize the importance of study. I was just put my effort into playing and hanging out with my friend. I was even ignoring the homework and always be late in the class in that period of time. However, my family moved to a big city because the needs of my parents. Something changed after we moved to the city and began my middle school life. My new classmates challenged my identity. They are totally different from me. They never be late in the class and submit the assignment on time all the time. Besides, they not only study hard but they also have good performance in the playing of musical instrument and sports. Taking my deskmate as an example, her grade is the top 100 of our whole grade, also, she passed the piano grade examination 10 which is the highest level in amateur level.

I am afraid to learn any new stuff even I am interested in when I am just 20 years old. What a boring life. And then, my identity got shaped. I dare to chasing and learning what I desire to and afraid to. I started running, going to the gym, reading and learning new book and I will keep going and learning. Besides, my parents taught that always be responsible to myself. I should be responsible to my life, be responsible to my study, be responsible to my love and who loves me. We have our own life and we do not live for others, we live for ourselves. So, what our life will be is depend on us. For sure, our study has the same principle. If we want to get a good grade, just put effort and hard work on it. Nobody would do it for us. These are
