My inspiration

                      Living abroad alone without parents or relatives can be a little lonely. At times like this,the only things that are cheering me on are my friends and that one poster on the wall. I know it's silly to say that but you will know when you have to face the loneliness and hardship by yourself. So, what is in that poster? Well, that is a picture of a golfer called Ryo Ishikawa. He is a golfer from japan and he has a nickname called "Bashful Prince". On 20 May 2007, Ishikawa became the youngest winner ever of a men's regular tournament on the Japan Golf Tour by winning the Munsingwear Open KSB Cup at the age 15 years and 8 months.He competed as an amateur and it was Ishikawa's first tour appearance. He finished one shot ahead of Japan's 9th top ranked player at the time, Katsumasa MiyamotoIshikawa turned professional in 2008[4] and won another Japan Golf Tour tournament, the mynavi ABC Championship. By the close of 2008 he had become the youngest ever player to reach the top 100 of the Official World Golf Rankings.(wikipedia) 
                      It can be seen that he is a born genius in golf and he inspired me alot. I used to like him when i was 15. Winning against seniors in golf at such young age makes me think that age is nothing but a number and if you try hard, there is nothing which is impossible.
