Writing exercise

Last year I read one book named the Becoming, it is the autobiography of Michelle LaVaughn Obama. I think the following three parts the below were was inspiring to me.

1.Michelle was born and raised growing in south of Chicago. She knew what she should do should to do when she just was a little girl. She wanted to leave the poor neighborhood hometown to metropolis by studying hard.
Although she was very clever, but she was still hard working and had a high standard for herself.
Reminds me of I remembered what I was doing when I was a kid. I had no idea for my future. But I can work hard from now on can hard working from now on.

2.She came back to Chicago when she graduated, then she got the lawyer license by taking the exam. She had a promising job, a nice flat, a car and good salary, everything is perfect.
But she was thinking about her life, what do I want? Then she quit from the law firm law office, and devoted to the government career. She felt the job was very meaningful, although the salary was is low.

3.During as the President’s wife/during her time as the first lady, she launched a green eating health program for kids. Because kids are the future of the country, they must have a healthy body. I think the program was very practical.
