At my primary school, I was one of the smartest kids there．I seldom studied, but I always got perfect scores．I thought I was born clever．At least I believed so．In my own opinion, I was also a prodigy in music．I could sing better than almost everyone else in my school．I was pretty sure that once I got to sixth grade, everyone would be surprised by me．But actually, they weren't．

When I arrived at my new class, I couldn't wait to show everyone what I could do．However, there was always someone else who could do them better．My grades began to suffer(变差)．More talented girls often sang solo(独唱)．I believed I wasn't talented．I believed I was a failure．

Over the next two years, I had to work very hard．I won every prize for the singing competition because of my hard work and efforts．My grades were still very low but they were improving little by little．I worked really hard．However, I was never the best at everything．

I haven't realized until recently that I really don't have to be the best at everything．I was too hard on myself．In fact, when I did badly in a test, my classmates never laughed at me．

No one is perfect．There will probably always be someone better than me at something．Anyway, there are about 7.6 billion people in this world．I will never be the number one at everything, and that's really okay．

My father died when I was five．It was hard on us all．My brother, who is eight years older than me, began to take care of my mother and me．

He took on more responsibilities than expected．I remember he made sure the rubbish was taken out, and the yard was cleaned．He did all on his own, without being told to do so．

Because of my father's death, Mom had to get a full­time job．Brother would get me up for school and make me breakfast．While I was eating, he would lay out my clothes, make my bed, and gather my school books up．
