Family
Growing up in a family of artists makes it quite difficult in creating something of my own. Making
my own identity by doing my own crafts throughout the years is very challenging. What makes
my family great is I’m free to explore everything without expectations aside from having good
grades and being a good example to my family. Correlating with Erik Erikson’s 5th stage of
Psychosocial development which is Identity vs. role confusion. Whereas, being able to identify
myself and what I want to do since early childhood helped me a lot in figuring out what I would
like to do. Also, this is not possible without the support of my parents that did not hesitate to
provide everything that I needed in order for me to grow on my own and become independent
with my decisions.
School
Being exposed in public schools made me someone that is very adventurous within and outside
the school vicinity. Unlike any other students, I am the one who is easy to approach and always
wanted to be part of every activity. I am the kind of student who spends more time in school
activities that captures my interest than sitting in some boring discussions. I am proud of the
competitions I was able to take part of from theater, journalism, Red Cross Youth, and any other
activities or competitions where I represent and perform as a representative from my school.
Considering that I started exploring myself since early childhood, the people that I interact from
my everyday life provided a great impact in who am I right now like it was discussed in
sociocultural perspective whereas my identity was shaped by historical circumstances of my life
that I continue to develop myself throughout the years of exposure to such activities specifically
in my school life.
Friends
In my circle of friends, I am the one who starts the fun using my out of this world approach that
gives life to our everyday life whenever we are together. I am often being told that I am the ray
of sunshine in their lives whenever I am around. I used to support my friends and they are doing
likewise as well. I am the one who can be either a leader or a follower depending on what might
be needed. I can also be with either a large or small group of people, numbers aren't a big deal
with friendship as long as they are true. As for what I want to do is just go with the flow on how
things will work out. As I realized from Bandura's Triadic theory that my personality reflects on
how my environment treats me as an individual and also with my family that became my roots
from my cognitive behavior that was developed through their guidance.
Society
By making a correlation being I am in my family, school, and friends, now as a part of the
society I always make sure to abide by laws and be ethical in every decision that I am making.
Taking part is an easy thing to do, but being a good part is a different one. By the use of my
influence and personality, I am able to be bold and speak freely for what is right and be vocal for
inequalities that we are currently facing. Proper sense of leadership is what I am an advocate of.
I was trained to be a leader and be a role model for future generations by molding youngsters
while they are young. I learned from sociocultural perspectives that society creates a huge role
in people's perspectives and being a child in this society full of destructive opinions creates an
impact into someone while they are growing up. That is where our role is needed, whereas to
provide aid to those who might be looking for themselves and needs someone to guide them to
the right path in order to create a future with much betterment.
