Beauty and color are in the world, but it is seeking the unknown and making new connections that unlocks them from their greyscale cage.

Amy撰写了一篇出色的、发人深省的文章，以“求知欲”为中心，使用生动的描述性语言将有趣的科学理论、颜色和视觉研究联系起来，展示我们有限或广泛的知识如何塑造我们的现实和经验 。
整篇文章中显而易见的是Amy不断学习的热情和成长，并将她的知识与周围的环境联系起来，以发现隐藏的真相 。一个人可以通过学习他人的知识或故事来理解他人的行为或感知，这是一个简单但又深刻的宏观主题--对知识、真理的好奇心、分享想法和经验无疑可以将许多人聚集在一起 。我想起了狭义相对论和广义相对论的发现者阿尔伯特·爱因斯坦的著名自语:“我没有特殊的才能 。我只是充满好奇 。”
这篇文章的结构非常好;每一段都进一步说明了Amy对新信息和联系的渴望 。总的来说，Amy得出了一个有力的结论:教育、同理心、倾听、理解和联系，所有这些都激发了她对生活的智力热情 。Amy渴望了解所有事物，尤其是人，她将自己描绘成一个充满好奇心且讨人喜欢的学生，是充满活力的学术界的理想补充 。
Georgina's Essay：“When Life Doesn’t Gives You Lemons”
With the blazing morning sun beaming through the window, I had an inclination to make a stand to sell Lebanese laymounada - a light lemonade flavored with a splash of rosewater. Throughout my childhood, anytime the temperature spiked over seventy degrees, there would be laymounada waiting for me at my Teta’s (grandmother in Lebanese Arabic) house.
At that moment, I scoured the cabinets and secured the glass pitcher only to realize we did not have lemons. To my disappointment, I realized my days of being an entrepreneur and generating revenue from my laymounada stand were over before they could even begin. I sat at the kitchen table, wallowing in disappointment. I wanted everyone to be able to taste my Teta’s laymounada. Suddenly, I had an idea that would either prove to be inventive or a total failure. I would sell lemonade without the lemons. Revolutionary, right?
I ripped off a rectangular sheet of paper towel and jotted down my business plan. I listed the key elements of the business plan: a drawing of a cup, a rose, and the price- “fifty scents”- to correlate with the rose-themed business. I sat outside of my childhood home located in a cul-de-sac of five houses and sold my neighbors a rose drink- a combination of filtered water, packets of sugar, and a dash of rosewater. Granted, I only made about $10 from a combination of my parents and generous neighbors who did not drink the “lemonade”, but the experience allowed me to realize regardless of the obstacle, if you are passionate, you can persevere. Teta’s laymounada was my introduction to entrepreneurship.
The entrepreneurial skills gained from my laymounada stand allowed me to establish A&G Jewelry, co-founded with my sister when I was twelve. This business focused on representing our Lebanese heritage. Using supplies we found around our house and from our local craft store, we created a variety of pieces that featured traditional Middle Eastern coins, beads, and clay baked into the shape of Lebanon. My sister and I collaborated to create marketing tools to promote our new business. Before we knew it, A&G Jewelry had earned a spot at my church’s annual Lebanese festival. After tirelessly marketing and selling our jewelry for three days straight, we had made over $900 in revenue, which we decided to donate to the church.
Entrepreneurship took a new form in high school when my sister and I founded our second partnership, The Model Brockton City Council. We saw a need to engage our peers in local government by designing a simulation of our city council. We had to collect signatures, present to many administrators, and market our new club. The initial goal to have more people try my lemonade resonated with me as I strived to have more people engage in their civic duties. Today, over twenty-five of my classmates frequently attend my meetings.
