Exercise 4: Pick a color


Okay so for this exercise, I chose to be purple. I'm fashionable,lovable and unique. I'm fashionable because as you can see i'm the new it color! you can see me everywhere and I got well with almost every color, especially black,yellow brown and some shades of green and this says that I'm very friendly as well. I'm lovable because lets just say barney!! I mean what more do I need to say? I am also very unique because I have that dark side to me where I'll stand out of the crowd. I'm unique because it is different when you see me on someone's nails or the color for someone's jeans and this makes me stand out and I love it!!


Exercise 5: The Private- Eye Game



First I checked out the closet and I saw that it was really organized. All the sweaters were put on one side, then turtlenecks and so on. I also noticed that its is also color coordinated so the rack starts from dark color to light color. The bottoms were like this too. Started off with casual jeans to dressy jeans to pants. I also noticed that she has a lot of dark/dim color than bright vibrant colors. It could say that she likes to dress up more professionally and mature than vibrant and fun. Next I looked at the cabinets and saw that her make up was all organized by having liquid stuff in one box and solid/powder stuff in another box. All the nail polishes in another box. It looked very neat and organized so I can say that this person likes it organized so she can find things easily and make sure that it looks good. However, when I opened the next drawer, which was full of accessories, it was a mess! She had different boxes for different types of accessories but it wasn't organized. It was just all over the place and I can say that she was either in a rush or is too lazy to clean because she got all the items that she needs to be organized like her make-up boxes but her jewellery isn't. So its either that she doesn't care too much about it or she was in a rush last night. The room also had a nice bed frame and chest of drawers that was matching with the carpet, drapery,photo frames and the comforter. This tells that she likes to decorate and make the room look nice.



Exercise 6: Seeing Yourself as Other See You



Even if I can have the best/ideal family in the world, I would still choose my family except I'll change them around a bit. So for my mom, I would have my mom except she will be stronger,taller,smarter and more confident. For my dad, he'll be the same, except he will be nicer, taller, and will be successfull in the business world rather than in medical field and my brother would stay as my brother but only two years older than me rather than 3.5.

Mother: Tissy is very strong and independent. She might come of as a hot tempered young women, but she does have a sweet, innocent side that is hidden inside her. Because she cares for other people and she yells at them at times not to hurt them but thinking that she is helping. I like how she could be very focused on things only if she wants too.

Father: I see Tissy as a strong individual who cares a lot for other people. She is not afraid of what other people might think about her. She is also a a pretty good singer than she thinks she is.

Brother: She has a good heart,fashionable and caring. She is a great sister to have because she doesn't try to sugar coat the truth. She says as it is and eve if it sounds bad at that instant, it helps everyone around her whether she realizes it or not.

Exercise 8: Your Ideal Environment


If I can pick any environment to live, I would choose to live in a rich neighborhood in Chicago with a big, huge house that has like six rooms, a pool, huge backyard etc. Like one of those celebrity houses that you see on MTV Cribs. I would also grow up in a big tight knit family. I will in the marketing department for a company. I would get to travel a lot for my work and make friends with others. I will ve very successful at what I do and my boss loves me. I'll also be surrounded with supportive/happy people. My family, even extended family is all very supportive and caring of each other. I would also want to live in an environment were friends and family mean a lot.

Exercise 9: Your Ideal Day

On an ideal day, I would wake up and look ten pounds skinnier and I'm done with school and already has a job and this is my day off. Its a summer morning so don't have to worry about shoveling snow or heating up the car. After getting ready, I'll have my breakfast already made for me at the table. After eating, I would make something for my family and then run some errands. After that, I'll have lunch with my husband somewhere near his work and after that I'll get to go shopping downtown with my girl friends. On an ideal day, I can shop all day and buy whatever I want without stressing too much about money. And after shopping, I'll go out with my friends for dinner and then come back to my place to have a sleepover. We can spend the entire night just watching t.v. eating more and just talking about girl stuff and then go back to reality the next morning!

Another one of the activites that I tried doing was writing a story and like I predicted it did not go well. I guess I had a negtive attitude from the beginning so I never gave it a chance. Either way, I tried writing a story and realized that it takes a lot of imagination and creativity to write stories than I thought. I also said that I would never want to be a writer in my life because I would always have to think about better stories and I like it when my schedule is spaced out rather than cramming it for few weeks and then having free time. To conclude, I didn't like the fact that I had to write a story and therefore I gave up pretty easily too which i guess is not good.

The movie Chocolat was very interesting. One thing that I kinda thought was that why they didn't have an English accent? Other than that I thought the movie was very inspirational but not a boring, documentary. It was very entertaining and had a good moral for the audience. I got the message that if you believe in what you do then other people will also believe in you. The only way you can become a true, successful leader is if you believe in yourself and have the patience to pass your knowledge to others and this was the difference between the male and the female leader in the movie. She taught everyone how to do things and wasn't discouraged when the entire town turned against her. She still believed in herself and continued what she was doing. Him on the other hand, didn't know if what he was doing was right or wrong and also didn't have the patience to listen to others for example, his reaction to the priest. Overrall I thought the movie was great!
