Consider carefully the following statement(s) and the assignment below it:
1: "I never saw an ugly thing in my life: for let the form of an object be what it may-light, shade, and perspective will always make it beautiful."
2: "If there is one thing worse than beingan ugly duckling in a house of swans, it's having the swans pretend there's no difference."
Assignment: Is it true that there are no ugly things?

Anyway, if you guys can help, read this composition and tell me what you think works and which areas I can improve on. Thanks in advance! :)

Whenever I think of the word; "ugly", I also think of the word; "beautiful". Indeed, life has taught me to look on the good side of the bad and the ugly.
It all started in school, where I got to know of a girl by the name of Wei Ling. The first impression you would have of her was that she was the ugly duckling; she suffered from a skin condition where her skin would constantly peel off. Hence, she was always the center of all those unwanted gossip. But she never let it affect her; in fact, she would use it as motivation to outperform those naysayers. And outperform them, she did: her results, when compared to her more beautiful peers, was always the pride and joy of our teachers.
And it didn't end there. A alway-ready-to-help demeanor and a great level of maturity helped to make up for her looks. For example, having seen my poor command of mathematics, she would stay back after classes to coach me and ensure that I understood the lessons taught. Also, she could often been seen dispensing advice and lending a listening ear to those with problems. Lastly, her maturity was also a calming influence on our otherwise rowdy class and soon, she gained the trust, respect and admiration of those around her.
In conclusion, I would very much agree that there is never an ugly thing; for if there is really one, It would be our insistence of labeling it as such and not looking at it in a positive way instead.
