The Perils of Becoming a Teenager Caroline is an 11-year old student in year 7 originally from Kunming China. She grew up believing that success only comes from steady hard working and dedication, which is why she enjoys challenging herself and attending competitions. She is sensitive with words and passionate about literature from a young age, winning a story-telling competition while still in kindergarten. As she grew older her passion for writing and public speaking deepened, and the opportunity to speak helped her grow more confident, including serving as a school house captain. Other interests include mathematics, history and debate. The opportunity to represent her school in a math competition and experiences have helped shape her personality. Caroline appreciated the Chinese saying, “Beyond every person there is someone greater, and beyond every mountain there is a higher one.” But she often said to herself, “Even if there is someone greater than you, you can learn from them and become a better person yourself.
