We live in a world that is
very heavily dependent on
technology, and we are a
lucky generation to be girls
and go to school.
Familial Sacrifices
My parents immigrated from another
country just so their children could be
girls in a more moderns and less
restricted society. This connects back
to my values that were given to me by
my parents.
Wellness
Personal Hygine
I keep myself well-groomed and cleanse
myself regularly for personal refreshment
and social acceptance.
Humor
I try and let off steam by talking to my friends and
using somethign that i really enjoy doing into
something I use as a Stress relief. This also links
back to my possible career choices.
Values
Perfection
From the family and culture I grew
up it, making sure everything was
perfect as well as your life from a
young age was concidred a value
and soemthign to be proud of.
However, i do not find this
something I value but I am raised
with it.
Passion/Ambition
In the family I grew up in, as well as
culture it was expected for the
children to have goals in life and be
expected to follow them. I think this is
where my value for this stemmed
from. This leads me to my multiple
career choices.
Respect
Something I value very heavily is respect. I think that
it is something to be earned not given. There should
be a reason why a person should listen to you and
give you time because of the way you act and what
you do for other. This value also leads into my
personal motives.
Genuineness
I think if you are fake or acting to be like
something you are not you are not worth
my time, nor do I think you deserve
respect (my main value)
Interests
Sciences
Ever since a young age i was taught
that to be successful, you had to go
into the sciences. That is something
that I was taught to pursue.
Screenwriting and Film
Recently, I have been more interested in the
writing and acting aspects of film and it is a
field that i am interested into looking more into.
Math Classes
For ten years, I have been taking
math classes outside of school.
Theater
For the past few years, I have been a
part of productions around school and I
have performed on stage many times.
Comedy
Performing on stage and making other laugh,
especially about a topic that is important to
me is something that would make me happy
as a career choice. I think the idea of
respect comes back into play because this
is a very difficult field to be successful in
and being able to achieve in it and have
others look up to me is important.
South Asian Club
I take extreme pride in my background
and being a part of this club, as well as
the head, I intent to educate others on
this culture and break any stereotypes
linked to this culture. This also greatly
links back to respect.
Character traits
Communicator
I am a confidant individual and I am not
afraid to share my ideas. In most cases
I will share them whether they are asked
for or not. I part of being a strong
communicator is being creative in more
than one language, which I am as well.
Principled
I consider myself principled, because I act a
lot upon fairness and making sure that
everyone is treated the way they should be. I
also like to take responsibility for my actions,
whether they are good or bad and that is
something I think everyone should do.
Having Power/ Being Successful
I want to be able to make a change but
also be known for that change. This also
connects back to my value of respect as
well as my IB character trait of principled.
Humor
This seems arbitrary, but something that
makes me do what I do everyday is
humor. This also links back to one of my
wellness techniques as well as a possible
career path for me.
