Introduction
Based
on the novel sing to the dawn by Minfong Ho, it is true that one has to face
many challenges in life before reaching his or her goal. An obvious example is
the main character, Dawan, who has faced many obstacles in her way to catch her
dream to study in city school.
Contents
One
of the obstacles faced by Dawan is facing her brother,
Kwai’s initially jealousy that leads to a rift between the two previously-close
siblings. They had stop talking nicely to each other for sometimes. It started right after the bell ring at school
in the first day she knew the result. Dawan called out for Kwai who was
standing alone in the doorway but he just turned away and stalked out abruptly.
In my opinion, one should not feel jealous of their sibling’s success, instead,
they should be proud of them.
The misunderstanding got worst when Dawan told her family
about the scholarship result. Her father was very angry and don’t want Dawan to
go there. In chapter three, at the first Dawan asked his permission to study at
the city, he even accused Dawan for stealing her brother’s only opportunity to
study in city school. Her father thinks that proper study in the city is no
place for a girl. He thinks even if Dawan success, she still could not make any
changes to their village. I think her father should not mind about the gender discrimination.
He cannot stop Dawan from being successful in her life just because she is a
girl. He should give her an opportunity to shoe what she is capable of.
Lastly, Dawan face another problem when she and her mother
went to see her cousin, Noi, and his husband, Ghan. However, they do not want
to help her to convince her father to let her study in the city school. In the
meantime a truth was discovered when they actually tells Dawan and her mother
about how the city actually are. In chapter four, Noi has described the city as
cruel and ugly. She also add that the city is not suitable for a young, healthy
girl. In my opinion, Noi should help Dawan as her family member. Besides, she
has to think positive about Dawan.
Conclusion
The conclusion is, Dawan is a very determined and ambitious
girl. Even though she had faced a lot of obstacles, she still wanted to study
in the city school. Dawan was nervous and worried at
the start but she became calmer and more confident towards the end. She
overcame her fears by presenting a logical and sensible appeal to her father. Her
sincere and calm appeal helped her father realize that Dawan too had a dream
that her father could share in.
