Myself, My Life
Myself.
From the very start I should say that it is not an easy thing to write about ‘Myself’ as it is hard to look at yourself from aside, but at the same time who knows you better than you do? I was born on 17th December 1992 in the town of Taiping which is located in Perak. Born in a small family of six and leads a simple lifestyle has really taught me, how significant it is to be a knowledgeable person to survive in this competitive world. My respected father is a retired principal and my lovely mother is a retired headmistress. Being the youngest of four siblings, I have always been taught to be an independent girl.
I am a girl of twenty. When I look at myself in the mirror, I see a short fat girl with unflawless fair complexion. I have never thought that I am a beauty. I wish I were more beautiful. But that does not mean that I am ungrateful for what I have. It just that sometimes I wonder, if any girl out there who ever seen me and thought, “Wow, I wish I looked like her”. I wonder. I think I am even tempered, rather reserved, calm and modest. But sometimes, I can lose my temper and become either angry or sad. Sometimes, I like staying alone and retreat into my shell. But at the same time, I love to hang out with my close friends, having some fun, laugh and joke. I do have a great sense of humour which means I understand humour and appreciate it. Usually, those who never know me will always prejudge me as an arrogant and proud person just by looking at my facial expression or body language. This is totally wrong. Like the saying, do not judge a book by its cover. But worst, when people wrongfully thought that I am older that my age. Perhaps because of my bulky figure and my arrogant facial expression. My beautiful mother always advises me to keep smiling so that I will look younger. I practiced it and I smiled a lot, but yet, still they will assume me as a married woman or a working lady, where actually I am just a first year law student in

    I feel this way because people today see the way one acts or looks and makes assumptions off that. For example a week or so ago while I was working at the country club an older man approached me and said, “hello young man, we haven’t met but me and my pals come here almost everyday and you always seem to have a huge smile on your face and I was just wondering why it is that your so darn happy all the time?” The relationship between what I said and what the man had told me is just that I truly am a generally happy person and people can tell that by looking at me even while at…

    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.…

    What do you see when you look in the mirror? Are you pleased, or do you immediately come up with an endless list of insecurities? As a child one of my favorite memories was laying around the house with my older sister on rainy days. We would leave the windows open so we could hear the rain coming down on the tin roof over our patio, while watching reruns of our favorite tv show “America's Next Top Model”. I always thought that these women were gorgeous and I would catch myself constantly comparing their looks to my own. I wanted to be just like them until I realized the unrealistic expectations that they had to live up to. A sizeable butt and breasts, but not too large; they have got to be proportional. A skinny waist, impeccable hair, blemish free face although even with clear skin you are expected to cake on makeup because no one is actually pretty without mile long eyelashes, the perfect smoky eye, and exemplary contouring. Society has idolized these things as “beautiful” and shamed the girls that do not meet these standards; however, society should be making everyone feel confident in their bodies. Girls need to know that it is okay not to have an “hourglass figure” so they don’t…

    Every girl has seen a woman in the media stick thin, sun kissed, envy of the way she looks “perfect”. Women that are put on television, a magazine or advertisements is ultimately fake with Photoshop, makeup and plastic surgery. This is a dangerous perception of beauty which has resulted in a decline in self-acceptance. Many girls any age struggle with their image believing that they are not thin enough, their hair is not long enough, or even they believe that they are ugly. I believe that the social stereotype of beauty should go back to the 50’s.…

    Every time I am told to write about myself I get short and terrifying flashbacks of my middle school days where I, barely a teenager, had to spit out an entire page journal answering a question and relating it to myself. After three years I learned how to write those journals in about twenty minutes and have it ready to be turned in with little to no actual emotion in the piece. Now, barely an adult, I hope to have more emotion in my writing along with less complaining. While I cannot completely quit on disliking writing for “pleasure” I can put my best foot forward starting with this paper. My four motivations to write are mainly to graduate from college, to tell a story, to use my own forms of creativity and to teach lessons.…

    Television ranks as one of the most watched entertainment agents of all times throughout the world. It forms one of the most crucial means of communication used in the world today. An average American uses more than 33 percent of his time watching television than any other leisure activity. In most incidences, the television forms an important part of Americans’ life. Between the two genders, women form the largest television audience partly because of their affiliated gender roles, and their attachment to household chores. Further, women are likely to watch television more than men based on the type of programs aired are.…

    Certainly the term 'family' has raised various debates in the modern society and as evident from the study of different cultures, there is now no clear taxonomy of a family unit. From a functionalists point of view, it is a unit of people bound together either biologically or by legal marriage. To support this theory, Murdock defines it as a group consisting of a sexually active heterosexual couple living with their biological or adopted children.(Haralambos M & Langley P).…

    My Writing Capabilities

    My writing capabilities, when writing about things like emotions, fall within the limits of those that I love. I could write novels about my mother’s strength or my sister’s dedication or even one about my cat’s eating habits, but when I’ve been asked to write about myself, I never can. For a lack of a more scholarly word choice, I see difficulty in talking about myself or my qualities without feeling as if I have an extremely inflated sense of self. I tend to keep to myself and while to my innermost social circle it may sound insane, I had a tough transition to coming to terms with who I am during a time when my mother was absent due to illness and I felt misguided. I can recall several instances in which I would stare myself down in the mirror…

    I was an out of control teenage, with no directions or discipline in life. Of course I have wonderful parents, but they were so busy that they couldn’t really teach us the principals of life. I grew up in a small village on the North of Madagascar called Andapa. Somehow when I was 5 years old, my parents decided that I will go to dorm in another town 3 hours from my hometown for me to get better education. We can say that I was independent since I’m 5 years I learned most of the things by myself.…

    When I was told to write a paper about myself, I actually thought it was something I could ace in a whim. Turns out, it was actually harder than having to write about something you can research. I just figured, writing something about yourself is just like finding the ground of yourself, knowing where you come from and the elements that make you what and who you are. Yeah, for some people it does seem pretty easy. But from where I’m coming from, it’s a whole different story. Let me start off by sharing a little biography about me. My name is Denice Mikaela Bayson Mendoza a..k.a Mikee. I’m 20 years old and I live in Makati City. I studied pre-school, elementary and high school in St. Scholastica’s College Manila but got kicked out after my freshman year due to misbehaviour and bad grades. It’s not as ominous as it seems but I was actually going through a very rough time back then. I had an unruly behaviour because I was severely depressed caused by family dilemmas in our home and personal issues that I was trying to deal with. I was in a phase were I didn’t care about the consequences of my actions. I’d speak out my mind regardless of how people might feel or if it was going to offend anybody in any way. I answered back to my teachers, I was always sent to the office for other misdemeanours and I got suspended too. On the last 2 weeks of my freshman year which was the period of our finals, I failed my exams on purpose because of my parents’ break up which occurred on the same couple of weeks. Worst part is, my parents don’t even know what I was going through, and nobody from my family did. After that, I was out of school for 2 years. 50/100 of those 2 years were pretty much a waste. But the other 50, I was able to reflect over my life and actually tried to find myself. It didn’t help at all because the depression stayed with me. Now, going back to the main subject, I’m a person who’s right brain is…

    Have you ever influenced by some important people that helped you be the person that you are today? I have. The people that have had influence on me are the most important people, my family. But before I begin talking about my family, I want to show to you the place that me and my family spend most of the time together which also means something important to me and my family. This place is called the family room. This room is small but beautiful. It is painted in white and has three windows decorated with beautiful curtains. By the windows you can see a nice view of some beautiful trees and a nice park across street. On the walls there are family photos like the ones that show where my brother and I were born. The other one is my graduation photo. Some family member photos like my grandparents, and some paintings made by my brother. So this is our room, which is very important to us and has a lot of special things, but the most special part of this room is when it brings my family together.…
