I will strive for the best whether it is someone’s birthday present, my contribution in a group, or a simple task. For instance, whenever my friends had a birthday, I always like to recall to our past memories to make their gift filled with thought and love. I wasn’t one to give out a simple gift card, rather I’d take the time to create a meaningful present. Through my hard work and thoughtfulness, I would await for appreciation and acknowledgement. However, when people take advantage of my work and dedication, I begin to lose connection and trust is lost instantly. Last year, I was partnered with one of my classmates, and I depended on this person to contribute their part. However, they abandoned me when I needed their help the most, which was the day before the due date. Which left me to do all the work myself, and in return, they thought it was acceptable. Likewise to blues, I cannot tolerate laziness and people taking advantage of my sincerity and hardwork. I cannot take people’s word unless they put action to
Have you ever thought about what it would be like not to be free? What would it be like not to be able to make choices? What would it be like not to be able to do what you want?

Most traditional upbringings include a few key life lessons. Among these is a sense of paying it forward. There are many different proverbs to describe this occurrence; “Do unto to others as you would have them do unto you,” and “One good turn deserves another,” The idea of reciprocity is such a generalized norm that people often don’t realize that they partake in this behavior. These reciprocal behaviors can often be very simple; holding a door, offering favors, and sharing some of your time can help to establish equity in relationships. People keep track of the good things done for them so that they can pay back these good deeds. Being indebted to anyone is a situation most people are uncomfortable with.
With interactions with individuals such as family, friends, classmates, teachers, and others we meet daily we can have a sense of belonging if communication is used correctly. For an example, when we effectively communicate with professors we can lower levels of stress and anxiety. When there is an open channel of communication between yourself and a professor you are then creating a relationship between the two where you might indicate problems you might be having in the classroom and/or at home.

Through these relationships we “theorize the concepts of academic morality on the strong and healthy relationships students establish” (Martin, 2009). Through interactions and through the successful and unsuccessful relationships we develop throughout our lifetime, we accumulate
I am friendly, hardworking, extroverted, and most of all I can easily connect with people. I don’t have a problem connecting with people and all the different personalities. The connection is my one way of showing them that I care and I hear them. Nadine Lueras-Tramma (2011) state that, “it feels good to feel connected to other people.” In fact, it is easy for me to talk to people if I feel like there is a connection, in that, it's not difficult for me to make conversation. When I was in school, I loved doing group tasks and participating in panel discussions. Because of my childhood experience and how my parents responded to my gestures immediately and in a consistent manner, which suggests why I’ve grown up as an extroverted, outgoing and family oriented
The color blue is regarded as peculiar color by Goethe because it is a powerful hue that can be perceived as exciting and repose. Goethe mentions that blue is the opposite of the color yellow because blue is always accompanied by darkness while yellow is always accompanied by darkness. Since blue is very close to darkness thus it may give away negative emotions. “The appearance of objects seen through a blue glass is gloomy and melancholy” (Goethe, p. 171). His description of the color blue is similar to the description of the state of mind of being blue. The blue can produce a feeling of emptiness and sadness that can be an undesirable effect upon individuals. When blue is lighter in appearance, the emotional perception of blue becomes
I want to be a giver. I hope to help the program in any way I possibly can. To have the ability to represent this program would give me influence to be the best person I can be. Of course, as any human being does, I have weaknesses such as; my loss of influence, my occasional laziness, and my forgetfulness. A problem that I am in the process of fixing is my inability to stick with something for a long period of time. I like chasing for something but then after chasing so long I grow impatient and quit trying. This program, however, will not be like that, I will not let that happen and I doubt that will happen because it is so unlikely. I would be more than willing to do any task asked of me. My respectfulness would assist me in that because I respect everyone. I also said previously that I am very trustworthy and reliable. Any task asked of me is obviously going to mean something and I’ll gain something from it so of course I would be willing to do any task asked of me. I might ask questions but any human would. For the most part I think I would be more than glad to do a task given to me. When completing any task I will have a determined

When I left my room, my mother knew that I had gone through a rough time, and I did not want to talk to her about it. Even though there was only a month left in my school year, I promised myself that I would be completely truthful to my friends, my family, my heritage, and myself. I expected all my friends to leave me, but I was fully prepared for this. However, none of this ever happened. My friends didn’t leave me, I wasn’t alone at the lunch table, I wasn’t even seem differently by those around me.

This is one of the only mistakes I have made which I consider a failure because it had taken me close to a year to fix, and this is why I consider it my most successful failure.
At first, I couldn’t explain why I was so angry. I began to reexamine my reactions toward my classmates. I asked myself, “Why are you so angry when you discovered that your pen was gone?” After thinking about the question, an answer formed in my head. However, I was not ready to admit it.

I also became a more outgoing person. At the end, I successfully blend into the Kang Chiao
