What about this...

I mean my ecs are pretty much garbage, lke sealedhuman77 said. But I would totally love to "start again" and join many clubs and become actively involved in college: whether it be political clubs, cultural, TV, radio, etc. I came to the U.S. for sophomore year, and was pretty much clueless about the concept of "ECs" (so basically didn't do much during Soph. year), never knew there were things like "Honor" classes, etc etc.

I'm somewhat doing some ECs, but Im worried I might not seem like a passionate and persistent person with ECs.

Would adcoms consider the fact that I came to the US for my sophomore year, hence, know why my ECs side is weak, or is this just plain stupid excuse? (well really it was hard to settle down and take a deep breath at first.. i mean immigrating to a new country is hard.. especially in a big country like the US.)
