...aging a. Do you think you are getting old? Ans: At 68 years, I am getting old. But I don’t think I am really old. Look at me, I can still do things for myself, if I am given the chance. But they don’t allow me because they think I am old. b. What age do you think you will consider yourself as being old? Ans: (She smiled and looked at researcher calmly) I don’t know what age I think I will consider myself old. But when I feel it, I will know. May be I will say when I am 80 years old or more, then I will take myself to be old. Age is in the heart. c. What make(s) you feel you are getting old? Ans: What makes me feel I am getting old? (She paused for a while). I think when I can no longer feel anything or see the need to live again. I think I will say when I can’t do anything for myself, like clean my own back, then, I am really getting old. Until then, I am not that old. d. How do you feel when you are treated as being old? Ans: I don’t like to be treated as being old. I am not an old woman. When these children try to make feel like one, I tell them I am still current. (Touching her hair) She said, I still make my hair. I like to look good. So when I get treated like an old woman, I don’t like it. But they all treat me like one. My children feel that I am old and need to be here, in a nursing home. It is only one or two of the staff here who treat me the way I want. Others think and act as if I am old. No way. I am not old. 3. Aging experiences a. Do you...

...perspective, both in retrospect and prospect”. For me the stage I feel I am at in my life is more than one stage. The first is Generativity versus stagnation, the seventh stage (The Person, 2009). For me, this stage covers the need to be needed, and I get this from the one constant that I know for sure: that I am a mom who wants the best for my child. So for this I feel I relate to this stage, not only for my child, but I have the need to feel wanted in many aspects and thus could be why I am wanting to go into a career in human services. The question posed during this stage is “why do I feel the need to be needed so much?” I believe this consciously comes from being a teenager and not feeling loved as much as I would have liked, or events that happened that made me feel unloved. So for this I crave attention now; wanting to be wanted. The stage I feel I connect with the most though is intimacy vs. isolation. This stage is where you are supposed to have the question of “who am I?” out of the way for the most part, and I know who I am, just not what I want to be or even who I want to be with. At times I am so confused. I think I never got to fully find myself throughout my twenties. I was too wrapped up in other things such as drugs that I did not even know how to live life in a normal way. I did not know my likes and dislikes or even what I liked to do for fun. A part of me still has been so sheltered in what I thought I should be worrying about, such as finding a......

... Personality assessment paper The results from the personality assessment I received were somewhat accurate /inaccurate to me. I am the type of person who like to sometimes sit back and observe things that is going on around me some times. Especially if I don’t know everyone in the room or if I’m new to something like a job or people. When it comes to work I will push myself to work hard and everything has to be perfectionist to me! I received a 4.3 in neuroticism, I am the type of person who don’t handle negativity that well and I will lash out and let my emotions get the best of me. For example (Me and my uncle had a big falling out over how he talks to woman and don’t treat no body with respect but he want to be respected all the time. I feel like why respect some who is disrespectful to any and everybody. Carl Jung developed the concept of introverts and extroverts. Introverts are people who tend to be preoccupied with the internal world of their own thought, feelings, and experiences. Extroverts are people who tend to be interested in the external world of people and things. Personally I do not believe personality can be put into just two columns as Jung has filtered it into. I do not feel like I am extroverted or introverted. It all depends upon what mood and situation. (University of phoenix) I received a 3...

...It’s like he picked me out from the crowd. Made me some type of target. For what? Does he not realize what he does? Does he not realize the effects his gazes or stares do to me? How paralyzing his words can be. I hate people who pity others. I hate pretentious people who look at others and think that they are better! Who are you to judge me, my life, and my behavior? I don’t go out to every party, so what? Does that make me sad and pathetic? Did you ever wonder that maybe I’m just not a party person? A party pooper is what you could call me. Just because I’m not out every night with friends, drinking and partying, does that make me a loner? It’s not everyone who is built like that. Some people are loud, talkative, very outgoing and yet some are quiet, composed, soft-spoken, something I could simply put as too chilled. They are not all over the place, they take their time as if they have all the time in the world. So what are they? Are they a mistake in creation? Were they never supposed to have been there in the first place? Is it better if they weren’t? Is that it? It doesn’t mean they don’t want to have fun, it doesn’t mean they don’t want to go out, because they do! Is it wrong sometimes that they like their own company, is it wrong that sometimes they prefer to curl up with a book by their side and watch TV at the same time? And maybe, have a cat as company? I know what you must think. Aren’t those the people that end up being 50, grey and old, never been married and......

Maybe some people just arent meant to be in our lives forever. Maybe some people are just passing through. Its like some people just come through our lives to bring us something: a gift, a blessing, a lesson we need to learn, and thats why theyre here... youll have that gift forever. - The Gift Sometimes the hardest things to say are the things that really matter Ive said what I needed to say, Ive done what I needed to do, now whatever happens to us, I guess Ill leave it up to you. I cant honestly say that I loved youat least not in that way. But I can tell you I know I could have, if you had given me the time to. I didnt say I love you to hear it back, I just wanted to tell you. I was lost. There was nobody for me to talk about everything that was troubling me. So I sat alone, with everything inside, and cried myself to sleep. never knew until that moment, what it was like to lose something I never really had. ~The Wonder Years Sometimes you just have to hold your head up high, blink away the tears and say good-bye" it's absurd, who you love and why, and how you can't turn it off when you desperately want to i wish that i was as invisible as you make me feel I've never understood the reasoning for someone to "move on" from a relationship.

...consistency. I found these strengths to be consistent with who I am. Deliberative is described as someone who is serious, careful with decisions, calculated, not easily flattered by words, and one who rarely gives compliments (Gallup 2017). It also describes another part where I feel mostly connected with and that is being “Private”. Privacy is something that I struggle with, I often view “being private” as being weak. But I realize now that this could be a strength and could be used in my favor. Being methodical and careful in my travel plans is crucial, especially when traveling to another country, one mistake could ruin a trip. I often travel to different...

...differences in individual thinking and ways of processing various types of information, few studies have reliably tested the validity of using learning styles in education. On the opposite side, critics say there is no evidence that identifying an individual student's learning style produces better outcomes. 2.0 VAK Learning Style There are consist of two learning style.

Apart from this, they will read the instructions or watching someone else do it first in order to be the best one when perform a new task.

...in Iloilo. At last I am writing about something very personal that I am very passionate about. It’s been a long time since I have written something from the heart so I hope you guys would bear with the scattered thoughts and clumsy words. Here it goes. Why do yoga Jane? What made you decide to practice yoga? Why not just go to the gym, exercise, jog or do aerobics? Well honestly I have tried all of that but none of them captured my interest for long. Sorry but if I am not really into what I’m doing I tend to ignore it and deliberately forget about it. And all of them had temporary effects on my body. Take note I only said body. I need something more than that. I need to do something that I am very passionate about and that does not only benefit my body but influences my mind, psych – my whole well-being. So what is yoga? In contrast to the pursuit of your desire as a means to happiness, the purpose of yoga is aimed at the monumental, life-changing discovery of who and what you truly are. This is how yoga works; this is how yoga makes me feel great. Yoga is helping me discover and experience the truth, my truth – which I am discovering, is goodness. That my basic nature is happiness. Yoga truly complements my beliefs. Have you noticed that it is so easy to lose touch with who we are, that core essence with which we were born between home, work and all of the demands and stresses in between? Because of all the activities we do it sometimes feels like the “I” inside is......

...motivation inventory I discovered, I am a big motivator. My score on this assessment was a 45. I totally agree with this test because I am always right there in the middle of any event whether it is in my own home, work or playing volleyball with my volleyball league. I have always been a team player and very outgoing ever since I was a child. I get this from my older siblings who always strived for the top and always wanted things to be better as we got older. Assessment I learned from this assessment what my main targets are as a person and what part I play in a team. It is important to know where you stand so you can build and learn about yourself to make yourself more successful. To be successful you have to always look at other peoples’ point of view about you. This helps everyone learn what changes need to be made to be more successful in life. This could be for school or even just at home with your family members. Knowing where I stand on paper makes me want to stay a motivator. I have always been a big motivator and I will plan on staying a big motivator. Without me a lot of my team members would probably stay in their shells and not want to participate in the different assignments, games or plans that we have to put together. Someone has to make people talk and make people express themselves. How else would we know as a society how people feel about a specific topic if nobody is pushing people to speak up or act upon what they feel needs to be......

Don’t worry I will be there though you making me fastened and lice. Remember me! Begging you to please give me chance Airielle. “ >>>>>Austine Curl Xiu The reason why people hated to be with someone is that, they cannot find themselves a private way to express their own emotions and expressions. Other people might says, “Better to be with someone who will make you happy”, what if the reason why you prefer to be alone is that someone who you want to be with is always ignoring you when you need his help or let say his affection and belongingness is not unto you. What if every time you go for, is just like you’re a wind and crap to that person? How can you stay and find time to reassure that he will give you more time to talk with your problems or flaws either? How should you see yourself to be trapped and when you fall asleep the only thing you can imagine is your already dead without knowing and feel it? Life is really unfair and so ridiculous, you cannot find your way and purpose to anyone’s life and you always......

Working as an architect one has to balance between the ideal and the reality without compromising your self or your idea. Since I was young and up until now, I really believed that I have been true to myself and I am really proud of that. So a question such as “who am I?” sounds perplexing at first but is actually straightforward for me. I am an architect that pride herself of getting the job done right. Other people might look at me as a reserved and quite person. For those who knew me well they would say that I am bold and would speak my mind at the right time. I am pretty much a go-getter. Generally I am a person who doesn’t get fazed by my surroundings or other circumstance around me. I usually keep my distance and observe the situation and mostly focus on my own things. I would have an original view on different things and this would make me feel like a unique individual. After graduating from an architecture school one of my goal......
