Some of the things that I have noticed are the same is that I tend to get annoyed very easy and once someone breaks my trust or friendship; it is really hard to gain that again even when it comes down to family members. I have always had the ability to carry myself in a professional manner even when the time may be very uncomfortable. Thinking back with a strong memory, my goal was to always remain calm, humble and very mature no matter what kind of situation I may have faced. When I attended High School I looked forward to socializing with new faces, creating new bonds and getting to know others that were different from me daily. I believe to go far in life it requires to be open to communicating with others even those that we may disagree or have had a disagreement with. I struggled with forgiving those that have betrayed my trust …show more content…
Memory of vivid experiences could be a great example of bias. I have a clearer memory of the experiences that hurt, or negatively impacted me such as breaking my arm jumping on my trampoline or even missing the grasp of the monkey bars which in result fractured my thumb. Vivid memories tend to stick longer than the memory of an event that caused no impact. Birthdays are one of the memories that become pictures stored in my mind and affect the characters of my personality trait. This could be an example of implicit memory; 90% percent of the time my best friend is late or near not making my birthday dinner parties. As time goes on, each year, I unconsciously expect her to be late or no make my big day. The pattern of her lateness and the effect it has on me during that moment moment affects my reactions and the response in acknowledging her

    Have you ever stopped caring so much that whatever happens, happens? I remember the time I had gotten in trouble by my mom because I had walked home from school. It was a gloomy day from it being so cloudy and cold. I was talked into walking home during school by friends whom, at the time didn't care about school as much as I did, cared nothing of school. I didn’t like it, but then again I started not to care either.…

    When I was younger, I struggled to support any friendships for an extended period of time. Before I moved to GCMS School district, I had previously attended three separate schools for the same few reasons. My parents could not afford to live where we did, one or both lost their job, or the environment was not suitable for our family. Moving so often made it difficult to keep in contact with old friends, and even more difficult to make new ones. As I was shy and introverted, it was an intimidating and terrifying situation.…

    I have learned about others’ experiences and how those experiences have changed them to become better and to think about different topics throughout the world. I have learned to be open-minded to what is happening now but also being open-minded to all opportunities. Through some of my experiences on campus, I have become more open-minded through discussing current events and have learned to develop my pre-conceived notions of a certain individual judging them based on their actions rather than what they appear to be. As someone who is an introvert, being isolated isn’t a big deal but at my time in college, I have become increasingly comfortable with doing things by myself and traveling places…

    One ordinary day in the 1st grade, I encountered a trivial challenge that impacted how I overcome obstacles today in my daily life. I vividly recall a time when I accidentally locked myself inside the class bathroom. Before turning the knob to exit, I decided to apply an excess amount of lotion on my hands. As soon as I comprehended that my slippery little fingers weren’t gripping to the handle, the panicking commenced. My short-lived life flashed right before my eyes as if escaping the bathroom was the only chance of survival.…

    My background is central to my identity, because who I was then and the memories I have now, with the things that happened to me throughout my life, have changed me into who I am today. Yet, in the past few years, I have changed drastically and still am growing into the person I want to be. The three main sections, and or concepts, that make me who I am today, are who I was, who I am and who I will be. Beginning with, who I was, I was never a child that wanted to be out in a crowd with others, especially with others I didn’t agree with. So instead of doing things other kids did, throughout elementary school I stayed back and helped the teacher clean up the room.…

    If we can't talk about our feelings, fears, aspirations, anxieties, assumptions, hopes, worries, dreams, and concerns, how can we ever build trust with those who are different from us? If we can't talk about differences that puzzle us, or things we're curious about, without fear of giving offense, then how can we ever overcome our ignorance about cultures and races -- or even the opposite sex?” BJ Gallagher’s point makes a lot of sense and is something we should all really think about. In order to solve problems or conflicts or even just function with other people we need to be able to accept differences in opinion. We all need to be comfortable with people having beliefs that go against our own or the common held belief without accusing them of being…
