Author's Note: Guan Xiaoyang, a student from Qilin High School, is a sports player who spends hours training for a 100-meter race, triple jump, football and shot putting every day. During an occasional visit to South China Normal University, he was attracted by the beautiful surroundings, good study atmosphere and the new sports field. Then he made up his mind to work hard to enter SCNU. 

He encountered lots of difficulties and suffered from pains in the process, but he never gave up. Whenever he thought of his dream university, he renewed his hopes. It was SCNU that guided his way and gave him the greatest power to keep fighting. After the College Entrance Examination, he was admitted to SCNU, realizing his dream. To live college life to the fullest, he joins several student clubs and takes an active part in various activities. In the future, he will work harder and strive to improve himself.
