Identity

   About 4-5 years ago I was an unfriendly and shy person. Over the years I have changed due to the experiences I have encountered in the past years. I didn't enjoy talking to new people or even some days I didn't feel like talking to anybody. Along with being unfriendly and shy, I was selfish and didnt like to share my belongings with anybody. Once, I stopped talking to my brother for a week straight just bevause of the fact that he played my video games without my permission which made me furious. 

   Today I am a completely changed individual, I like to talk to new people and I'm a more mature and outgoing person. Today I try to treat others how I would like to be treated and not be judgemental. If there is a few things I hate it's injustice. I can't tolerate anyone being unjustified in front of me because over the years I've learned to treat everyone fairly and be respectful because that will make me a better person. 

   In the future I plan to be a very successful individual. I hope to be a customs officer working for the CBSA and representing the country I love. I plan on achieving my goal by trying hard on every task that is crusial for me in order to become successful by starting to try hard in grade 11 and 12 I will put myself on the path of success. I plan on attending SFU and completing a criminology degree so I can put myself closer to achieving my goal. 

Some people have a hard time understanding what kind of person they really are. In this interesting article by Art Ticknor he talks about how you can find your own identity and how important it is for you to do so. http://www.selfdiscoveryportal.com/arIdentity.htm

Duncan post mortem

I was such a noble and loyal king to scotland. 

How does thee MacBeth betray and assasinate me.

I trusted thee MacBeth by giving thou title " Prince of Cawdor". 

And thou repay me by murdering me? 

After all I've done for you. 

Thy greed hasth taken over thou... Bloody tyrant. 

My sons Donalbain and Malcolm. 

I hope thy avenge my death and bring order in Scotland. 

I wish I hath died with a sword in my hands. 

So I could die fighting. 

It can be a challenge trying to understand what type of character Duncan truly is, in this article found online it talks about how King Duncan is a " figurehead of order and orderliness" which hepled me further understand what type of ruler Duncan really was. http://www.cliffsnotes.com/literature/m/macbeth/character-analysis/duncan

Superstitions

2 popular superstitions in modern times that are talked about are, Friday the 13th and the black cat. Nowadays when people think of Friday the 13th they think of bad luck or a horror movie. The orgin of Friday the 13th was in the 19th century when a man named William Fowler a U.S army captain founded the Thirteen club which had 13 members who were trying to prove superstitions were false. On firday the 13th 1881 they tried to prove certain superstitions wrong such as walking under a ladder or breaking mirrors. Another source of historic events regarding the number 13 was mentioned in Nordic mythology which tells a tale of 12 gods who gathered for a party and a 13 th guest came uninvited who was Loki a trickster god. 

A black cat is considered bad luck if it crosses your path but there arent many reasons as to why that is. The only article I found on black cats was in the middle ages when woman who were thought of being witches used to feed alley cats which made people suggest that black cats are also guilty of witchery which is related to bad luck. 

Heres an interesting video I found on youtube that is a conversation between a few people talking about the black cat superstition. http://youtu.be/bnHWsY3Rffg

Philosophy on life

IThe song that i chose that represents my view on life was " Beautiful Day" by U2 in which he sings about a beautiful day looking past the negative things in his day and focusing on the positive things. This song shows my views on life because in life you have some bad times but you just have to learn to get over it and move one because theres always a tomorrow.

Personality Profile

After taking the 3 Personality quizzes I have discovered many interesting characteristics about myself that I wasn't aware of before along some characteristics that I already knew about from before. One of the quizzes stated that I " like to work on projects alone" which is very true because I work more efficiently independently. The quiz has also confirmed that I have a preference of introversion over extraversion  which is also true because I like to spend time with myself rather than with others. I have discovered by taking the quizzes that I am a dreamer which I didn't think of myself as before but I've realized now. 

After watching a youtube video about the Myers Briggs personality quiz I learned that your personality type is based on 4 things. If you're into extraversion or introversion, thinking or feeling, judging or precieving, and sensing or intuition.

Found Poem

Dreams

Your dreams...

The road to success will be a lot of fun and adventurous 

Communicate at every step

Be clear

Your careers in motion and everyone should be able to discover and express themselves

Everyone deserves to be given a chance

But to be great you have to show up

Ideas star here

Go confidently in the direction... Of your dreams
