If it’s there and it’s genuine, your intellectual curiosity oozes out of your every pore. Don’t wash it off.
It could be noticed and mentioned by your teachers. Love of learning reveals itself over time as a process, not only in a one-episode event (interview, essay).
You might reveal it by hanging onto the same extracurricular activity and deepening your involvement with it.
Or taking language up to a 4th or 5th year so you can pursue its literature.
It’s also how you approach things, not the things you do. If you write, “I got a dog” you’re a regular kid. If you get the dog, wonder about where it came from, find out how to train it, discover how people relate to you differently in the neighborhood when you walk it…well, are you catching on now?
