Struggling Identities!!!

Since humans are civilized, people evaluate others based on the first impression the other person has left, however, what determines your first impression in others’ eyes? Obviously, actions and behaviors are the most important.

“ Habits determine if you will be successful.” is a famous saying that has been passed on for decades. Habits are the stereotypes of people’s behavior and usually people do not notice their habits while they are showing the habits. People evaluate others through the first impression, which is through the impression of their behaviors and their habits make other people think if the person is well educated or not and if the person has the potential to be successful.

Furthermore, actions are also important to people’s identities. Actions include manners, the way people talk, the way people handle things and so on.Through actions, people would be able to have a general realization about people’s personalities and status. For instance, if some people can easily get on well with others, that person must be out going.

As an effect, what kind of person you are and what status do you belong to is revealed by the identities, which implies identities can be shaped through behaviors and actions, therefore, we ourselves shape our own identities and correspondingly, our identities shape who we are.

To sum up, identities can be seen from many aspects and shaped in many ways that we decide our own identities and we shape our identities in numerous ways individually.

OUR AWESOME PRESENTATION!

This is the first presentation of my last semester in high school and it was the only presentation that we only got 2 days to prepare everything!

Our topic was "How to be a good presenter & audience", Lea is in charge of the drawing part, Jing Jing and I were mainly helped with the ideas. She drew several vivid pictures which helped the audiences understand easier about the key points we emphasized. All of us spoke fluently and thoroughly expressed our ideas during the speech, so I am really proud of we three girls. Lastly, I REALLY ENJOYED WORKING WITH YOU GIRLS~~

ALLY'S INTRODUCTION

In spring, I like to go hiking on weekend to see the blossom of the flowers and breathe the fresh air in the suburb of Beijing. In summer, I love swimming in the sea and eat seafood on the seashore but I hate ginger and anything that contains ginger in its ingredients, therefore I always remind the waiter or waitress not to put ginger in the dishes after they finish taking order and I hate the annoying mosquitoes flying around and biting me as well. In autumn, I like to go pick fruits and vegetables myself in an organic farm near Beijing. In winter, I would go skiing as long as I have spare time. However, when school starts, I have less time, so I choose to read magazines, chat and watch movies as after-school amusement and go to concert during short vacations if possible. Also, I am planning to learn to play billiards and Cantonese because billiards recently engages me, and Cantonese seems to be more useful than Mandarin when we leave China. To sum up, this is the brief introduction of myself.
