Who Am I?

This essay will share information on my family and myself. I will talk about my future goals, my religion and some of my past life. At the end of this essay, I hope that the reader will feel intrigued, interested and get to know me, my life and my family, somewhat better. My long term goal currently in life is to become a criminal investigator. I want to solve unsolved murders, find kidnappers and work of that kind. Most importantly, I want to spend my time capturing the people conducting these crimes that are simply walking the streets freely. My goal is to take them out of the streets and society and put them in a place that ensures other people’s safety. Many times throughout the day, I find myself second guessing myself and thinking about thinking. This is called metacognition. Ever since I was younger, I have been experiencing sympathy and empathy. I have always strongly cared and kept in mind other people's emotions. My biggest need from the Maslow Hierarchy of Needs is Self-Actualization. I believe that I work my best to show my full potential and use all of my energy to do so. When I see that I am not succeeding in what I am doing, I make a change to better myself and achieve more. My name is Christiana Danielle Wolff. I was born on December 12, 1999 which currently makes me 18 years old. I was born in South Miami. Many people think that I am a very serious person due to my facial expressions, but those who get to know me,

    When I think about the boy who I was growing up, the young adult I am today, and the man I plan to be in the forthcoming years, one aspect of my life stands out to me far more radiantly than anything else: my culture, my skin, my identity as a Bangladeshi-American. There aren't many clubs or organization for Bangladeshi Americans such as myself. Make no mistake, there are certainly events for Bangladeshis living in the United states, many that I have attended due to various entreaties from my parents. These are event where the only language spoken is one that I barely speak (Bengali), the only music conversed about is that which I don't listen to or understand, and the only events discussed happen in another country that I have spent only a…
