It was a rainy day when I was five years old. I was sitting in front of the old piano in my home. I asked my mom if I could learn piano. I wouldn’t know that this decision would change my entire life.

Learning piano was hard. I used to want to give up, but when I look back at all the things I learned, I feel bad about giving up. Now, I received many awards and honors. But the most important thing is that I really love music and enjoy learning. It was really hard to find a hobby that I really love, and I’m thankful to my five-year-old self. No one could change how much I love this instrument and the music. I got the praise I like and awards. I love the piano and I enjoy the time I spend on it. I cried a thousand times because it’s hard to learn. But now, when I get over the hard problems, I feel really appreciative of myself.

This year, I expect to start actually focusing on the piano major and start getting professional guidance, preparing to pursue it in college. I know that this hobby will stay with me forever.
