During the last 3 years , I have participated in the activities after school. Such as school dancing clubs , working as a waitress, do the community services for my neighbors, and so on.

The first year in my senior high school, I was a little shy to express my ideas in public. To challenge myself, I finally made a surprising decision that I want to learn to dance with my schoolmates to communicate with others that I was not familiar with. So , I became to be a member in the club. Every weekend, I learnt to perform jazz. At first, I was not good at dancing, and our team planned to take part in a jazz competition in the city of Beijing, so I had to ask others to instruct me. A month later, I found that it was not difficult to discuss and communicate with others. From then on, I become out-going and easy-going, and I learnt that taking part in school activities helps me to improving myself in some aspects, especially in communication. we club members performed very well although we did not award.
在高中一年级的时候，我很害羞， 不好意思在公共场合发表我个人的看法。为了挑战自己为了和同学其他的人更好交流， 我做除了一个惊人的决定，我参加了学校的舞蹈俱乐部，并且学习学校的爵士舞蹈，并且打算参加比赛。我每个周末学习爵士舞。由于我舞跳的不好，所以我要主动去请教别的俱乐部会员指导我，渐渐的，我发现与别人讨论沟通并不是困难的事情，我开始变得外向了还很容易相处。虽然我们没有得奖，但是我从参加学校的活动上我学会了很多东西。
During my summer holiday in 2011, I found a job as a waitress in a cafeteria named Starbucks. The first time I had been trained and worked like an adult. I worked at 8 am. What I do everyday is that I need to do the cleaning. After half a month, I became to learn how to make coffee. As a Chinese, it is also my first time to learn the procedures to make coffee. Until now, I can make coffee for my friends and my family members. It is wonderful.
在我2011年的夏季暑假中，我找了一份星巴克做服务员的工作。这是我第一像一个成年人一样接受专业的服务培训，并且每天早上八点开始上班。我每天要打扫店内卫生。半个月后我开始学会如何做咖啡。作为一个中国人， 我第一次接触做咖啡的详细过程。到现在我都记得如何做咖啡为我的朋友和家人，这种感受太好了。
On a cold Sunday morning, and it snowed heavily , so I worked with my friends to clean the snow in the community. It took us almost three hours to make a way for neighbors. When my fathers and others found there was a way, they felt warm and happy. We felt all we had done was worth while。
在一个寒冷的冬天的早上，雪下的很大，所以我和朋友去社区扫雪，扫雪并不容易，我们花了整整三个小时，终于扫出了一条路供给邻居行走。当爸爸和邻居发现了这条路时， 他们非常开心。我们觉得我们所付出的努力是值得的。
Over all, I think taking part in various activities makes me more adaptable to the society and the future university life.
总之， 我认为参与活动使我们将来更加适应社会和未来的大学生活。
