Personal Statement
One word I would use to describe myself firstly is 'determined'. I am very determined at whatever I do. Whether it's sports, music, theatre or academics. I'm always confident that I'm good but not too confident to leave it there. I learn everyday. Everytime I watch a soccer match or listen to a new singer, I learn something new.
I think my determination is what makes me a good candidate but aside from that, I'm a very quick learner. When I started playing soccer, I couldn't even receive a ball. Within a year and a half I became the captain of my school team and even boys came to ask me to play with them. I'm not very good compared to people in this country. But I was one of the best in my city.
Soccer means a lot to me. It is my medication, my heart and soul. Yes, I'm not that good but that is why I'm here. I want to learn. I want to be a top class player. Probably the only thing I'm attached to in life is this. Whatever negative emotion that I feel, a good practice of soccer can help me calm down and feel 100 times better. I'm writing through experience. I think this is what makes me different from many other candidates. I play soccer with my soul not just my body.
Some other reasons why I think I'm different from a lot is that, I always play fair and I have zero amount of ego in me. I think ego is the stem of jealousy and that is something that can destroy a soccer career. I learn from every single player around me. If there's someone who is better than me at doing something, I observe how they do it and I try applying that. I have also been a very bright student academically since I was very little which I think also makes me different from a lot of the others.
My goal isn't to just be an amazing player, it isn't to be famous, it is to prove men that women can be just as amazing as them. I want to play in the level of Messi, Ronaldo (Brazilian), Ronaldinho, Zidane - all these legends. I want to show that girls can be just as good. I'm pretty sure everyone will think I'm dreaming too big but that was, is and always will be my ultimate goal in life. And that for me, makes me, probably one of the most unique candidates.
