There are many words to describe myself and my personality. My friends or family would mainly describe me as friendly, dependable and artistic. I wouldn’t hesitate to agree with each descriptive word. I think that being these things has helped make me into the person I am today, and I am very proud of the person I have become. I think that out of any words you could use to describe a person, these three fit me best.

The first word most people I know would use to describe myself is friendly. In all my past experiences I have learned that it pays off to be friendly. I used to work in a clothing store, Weathervane, and it was basically my job to be friendly to everyone. By being friendly with the customers, and getting to know them on a more personal level, I was awarded more responsibilities. For the four years I was in high school I participated in cheerleading. Being a cheerleader also allowed me to be friendly with everyone I came in contact with at games, events and competitions. I learned a lot about myself and others by being a cheerleader, because it allowed me to interact with a variety of people at these functions. Another past experience that required me to be friendly was being involved in Rotary. Rotary was a community service group at my high school that I was a member in for a year. I had to volunteer at a number of different places and help a lot of different people. By being friendly to them I got a lot more positive feedback, which allowed me to help out more. I think being friendly is an important trait to have in life today. There are so many hostile people in our world that I think we need more friendly people around.

Friends and family would also describe me as being very dependable. I have a very good relationship with my parents because I have shown them over the years that they can depend on me to get most anything done. My mom and I share a car and whenever she needs me to pick her up from work or an appointment I am always there on time. Both my parents work during the summer, so house chores are usually left up to me and my sister. My sister and I always get everything done that needs to be done. My parents know they can depend on me with any responsibility they give me, and that’s a good feeling to have. My work experience has also contributed to my dependability. When things got crazy around the store, especially during Christmas time, my managers knew they could always call me and I would come in as soon as possible. Friends describe me as being dependable because they know that friends and family come first to me. A lot of my friends will come to me with problems because they know they can depend on me to help them out and listen. Being a reliable person means a lot to me, and I hope that I will always be looked at as being dependable to my friends and family.

One of my personal traits I am most proud of is being creative and artistic. Ever since I was a little girl I have loved to draw and paint; and I have always been enrolled in art classes or art shows. During my senior year one of my pieces of art was accepted into a huge art show at the Kalamazoo Institute of Arts. Having my art in this show, I would have to say, was one of my greatest accomplishments. My friends and family all attended the show, which meant a lot to me. When I am not involved in my art classes I’m usually painting something for someone or for myself. My room at home is painted from top to bottom. When ever I am bored I will always find something artistic to do. I love being artistic and creative because it gives me a way to express myself how I want and in the way I want.

Friendly, artistic and dependable are all words that anyone who knows me well would use to describe me. Each trait has developed greatly over the years and has made me who I am today. I think that friends and family would be proud of the person I have become. There is a quote that I try to live by every day which goes, “Be who you are, and say

Everything we do in life is a risk. Crossing the street can get you killed. If you look at the statistics you might find bungee jumping is safer than driving your car. We have a bungee rocket near us and no one has ever been hurt on it in all the years it has been there.



I’m still struggling with the work/life balance. I am taking next week off as “vacation”, which means do errands and try to catch up with things that have fallen off my radar. I do have a few things to do to become the person I’ve always wanted to be.

1. stop swearing. I don’t like it when people swear, especially at work. I have fallen into this habit as the stress of work has gotten to me.

2. Thank people when they have helped out. I guess this falls under building a team besides just being appreciative. I do thank people but I am not sure that I let them know how much help they have been.

3. listen more, talk less. This one is a challenge for me. I need to go into listening mode more often.
