Character: Personality Psychology and School

ter Character is the summation of qualities, actions and tendencies which distinguish people from another. Eventually, our character is what we do when no one is looking. Human personality should always be praised and no one should ever put anyone down for having a different kinds of personality. It is truly just allowing people to be who they are unless they are in violation of other human’s rights. A part from that, our character actually change based on the environment and it is different from our actual character. So basically people will have different kind of characteristic for different situation in their life. A quote that I live by is, “People don’t always behave the way they use to, but it doesn’t mean the way they behave is wrong.” Everyone has their own reasons to be a hypocrite. Some of the reasons can be good and some can be bad. It is all based on the individual situations. As for me, I also keep changing my attitude based on different condition I bumped in. The two part of my life that are conspicuously different are myself as a student and myself at my own hometown. I am a well-behaved student in school, dissimilar with my active behaviour at home. This shows that I have a double life. I change my attitude without realizing it. I do this as for my own way to survive in two different situations. The contrast part of my life is my personalities when I was in school and when I was at home. Firstly, the contrast in my double life is my appearance. I studied in an Islamic school in Kajang. The school’s ordinance is very strict compare to the other school based on my research. My outer appearance in school is extremely different from my outer appearance at home or outside from school. In school, I looked like a very shy and humble person. I always wore a formal entire and always followed all the school rules. Everyone respected me for my great discipline. All the teachers also like me for my good and kind attitude.
