Activity 1. Through the years
My family is one of the groups I usually encounter and have
arguments with. The situation we get into when arguing helps me
to develop myself. Sometimes I learn how to go on the opposite
side, and sometimes I side with them. That is how I developed
myself.
When I visited a doctor a year ago, I felt my true self because I
did not hesitate to tell her all of the things about myself.
Although it’s part of the medication process, I felt like I could
say to her every detail without hesitations, which I don’t most of
the time.
My age, gender, and ethnicity helped me chose the group of
people or culture I know I can belong with, or I’ll adapt.
These factors helped me understand who I am and who I can
be.
The lesson I value the most is that I should understand that
we live in different situations, that there are things that I can
do and some can’t, that we can afford some things that
others can’t. Each of us has a different status in life.
The factors that influence my personality is my brother, my
mother mostly, my closest friend, and my boyfriend. We
share different ideas and opinions that influences me
variously
The aspects of me that I would want to change are being
bossy, and I don’t want to be corrected. I know, and I
always observe that my friend and family hate me for these
aspects.
