Who Am I
Who Am I?
Part 1
I like reading History books and watching “How’s they do it” on science channel. I like soccer, fried ken turkey chicken and doing maths assignments. I value honesty, commitment, scholarship and kindness. These are hard and true facts, but there is a lot I do not know about myself. I don't know how I feel about the death penalty, and I don't know what I think about a cashless society. I have no stock answer to offer about a life-changing experience or a moment of enlightenment, and it is hard for me to give a comprehensive proclamation of who I am, for my identity unfolds more every day as my experiences grow. Since I am embracing the gift of life and finding ways to live well Physically, I’m five foot eight inches tall; I weigh about one hundred and eighty pounds. I’m dark in complexion and I’m athletic robust and physical. I’m twenty three years old. I’m smart, intelligent slow to anger but hard to forgive type of person. I’m quiet sometimes, but that doesn’t mean I’m dumb.
I dislike saying "I am trying to find myself" because my identity is not lost, it just needs more uncovering. Luckily for me, what I love to do and want to be helps me uncover more about myself. I want to be an engineer. I may not end up a professional engineer but I will always work hard in school and continue to do my best in solving problems around me. I get discouraged sometimes when things go the way I don’t want it to go. But I’m a fighter, a true warrior and that for sure I can tell myself each day. That is because there was a time in my life when I thought I’ve lost all my hopes and dreams. When my family and I lost all what we had in a civil war. But that didn’t stop me at all to pursue my dreams. In fact, my worse life experiences have given me the zeal to press on and never fail. Even at that I’m still scared that I won’t see what is essential for me. That’s why I’m holding on to my dreams and whatever

    There are approximately seven billion people living on the Earth. Each person is different. The journey of finding one’s self is a path that one must take with little help from others and built from their own experiences, creating an identity that must be established by themselves and can only be taken away by themselves as seen through the texts A Separate Peace by John Knowles, Catcher in the Rye by J.D. Salinger, and Night by Elie Wiesel.…

    When most people look at me, they don’t always see me. They see a girl. They see a quiet girl who is a big reader. They see a girl who is a hard worker and does well in school. They see the sister of three younger brothers. It’s true. I’m all of these things. I am also much, much more. I am mature in certain matters, and childish in others. I change my personality according to my surroundings, and do not show the world the real me. There are even some things that my family does not know about the real me.…

    When I was assigned this assignment I was skeptical, but this assignment really helped me understand myself. There wasn't much information to go off of besides, show who you are, so this is who I am. This picture displays me hanging from a tree, with water behind me, and it's featuring my BYU hoodie.…

    I don’t know how to begin to define myself in order for you to understand who I truly am. I believe there is more to a person than stories that mould us into who we are today; like when one asks, “Tell me your story," I don’t think about that time when my family broke into two or that time I was diagnosed with my mental illnesses. I think of coffee, because coffee is bitter and bitter people drink coffee, sad people; people with heavy hearts and heavy footsteps, with tangled thoughts, people with anxiety and words left unspoken, people like me. Lonely people drink coffee. I think of the world map I have in my room with thumbtacks marking every country I want to visit. I think of foreign languages, and how beautiful it sounds when words form…

    The discovery of self identity is more often than not a long and painful process that never really ends, it only progresses, but it resides as a testimony to personal growth that everyone must endure. When my sister died in my freshman year of high school I was forced to confront my own individuality and identity without an older sister by my side to guide me as I was used to.. For the first time since I was born I lived in a house as if I were an only child, just my parents and I. It really is a strange thing, having someone there one moment to discuss the prospects of heaven, hell, books, Narnia, and the current crush, then suddenly be left to find your own answers. I was left crushed and heartbroken, and felt part of me had died, too, but perhaps that feeling of nothingness paved the way for me to find out who I truly am, a journey everyone has to undergo at some point.…

    I am messy and afflicted and sensitive. I make mistakes quite frequently, but I'm learning, I'm struggling, I’m growing, and I'm fighting. I am not the pile of paper that totes my adequate test scores and my transcript. I'm a three dimensional human being. And I'm so much more than a clone who is simply programmed to memorize and regurgitate its knowledge on a test. I have expedient and applicable strengths, and I’m taking steps every day to make my weaknesses stronger. I'm a problem solver, a perseverer, a critical thinker, a collaborator, a risk taker. I am a leader. Most importantly, I live pura…

    When someone asks me about my identity I usually do not know what to say. Probably because no one asks me about my identity. It has taken me many years to get to where I am now and I am still trying to improve myself and find myself. However, in seventh grade I met someone who changed my life forever and is the reason I had even tried to find myself. Due to this person entering in my life, I now have someone else who is the reason that I try to better myself and find all of my identity. This poster points out a lot of key points over the time it took me to find myself, when I did not even know I was missing.…

    Ralph Waldo Emerson once said “To be yourself in a world that is trying to make you something else is a great accomplishment”. A question such as “who am I”? Really gives me the opportunity to differentiate and express who I really am and who I can be. I am not a complex person who thinks the world is against me, nor am I overly sophisticated “know-it-all” who doesn't take time to pay attention to my surroundings. I can't say that I am like every other person because there are certain things that make me a unique individual. What I can say is that I am progressing towards a brighter future.…

    Who are they now? In 'who am I this time', I believe the author is try to tell the story of how two wandering souls had found each other through the strangest of circumstances. The two main characters Harry Nash and Helene Shaw both have trouble communicating with other people. They have a hard time dealing with society and they can not handle personal relationships very well. These two main characters are both wanders in life that had never known love before they met each other. It wasn't even obvious to each other when they first met. They both lack positive self-images and as a result they both need direction in life. These are some of the reasons that these two rather odd characters are perfect for each other.…

    Emily Dickinson is often called a recluse because she spent the second half of her life secluded from the public in her family home. Out of over 2000 poems she wrote, only 12 of those were published anonymously in her lifetime. Furthermore, the friendships she kept in the latter part of her life were held mostly by letter correspondence.…

    There is a lot I want to share with you about me. I am really interested in sports. I am mostly into basketball, and I go to the gym almost everyday practicing and playing for 4 hours. I really hope I can make the team this year. I also like to play football with friends. My favorite subject is math, because there is not much reading and I can learn it really fast. I love to sketch, paint, and sculpt. I really like listening to music, because it motivates me and relieves stress. I always like to learn something cool and interesting. Throughout my life I have learned many useless talents like origami, juggling balls, spinning books, and walking on my hands. I also play the piano and violin but I lost interest now. My favorite food is Indian food, because there is always an explosion of flavor and it’s really spicy. This is actually the starting of my first full year in Oakton, because I moved in the middle of last school year from Woodson high school.…
