Personalities are like traditions – unique patterns of behaviour that build over a lifetime of improvisation

The question of whether personality is the result of nature or nurture has plagued researchers – and the general public – for decades. What we do know is that we are all unique, each with a distinctive pattern of speech, gesture, movement and thought. And when it comes to our personality, our past thoughts and actions influence our future thoughts and actions. In short, our personalities are traditions. If this is the case, then, can we change them? The answer is yes, but the process might be difficult.

Our personalities, like most ways in our minds vary, are a complex mix of nature and nurture. Nature certainly matters: studies of twins, separated from birth, show that our genes can shape our lives. Most tellingly, identical twins raised separately have more similar personalities than fraternal twins, who share only half their genes. But nurture matters too: identical twins raised separately – or indeed raised together – are very different people. Nature and nurture can, of course, interact in complex ways: for example, a child naturally interested in music (nature) may be more likely to be given, or persist with, music lessons (part of nurture). Similarly, an initially shy or friendly child will shape how people treat them: nature will, again, shape nurture.

WEEK 1 who am I

The study abroad experience is a good chance to know about myself out of my comfort zone. Before that, I should know who I am so far. It is important to understand what kind of person I am, from my personality and preferences. Also, people react differently to different occasion or meeting with different types of people, so I need to know my different roles in our life. I am going to the University of Birmingham, the UK for my next study abroad journey.

In the graph, I listed female, finance student, cat lover, Jazz lover, Chinese, extrovert, logical and independence in the circles. First, I am a female in society. Male and female have a different way to think and act. Other than understanding the broad differences, I should pay more attention to specific cultural-based differences between male and female. Such as the dressing, the way to greet, and appreciation. It will be a huge difference from China, the US, and the UK. I would love to observe how locals talk and live to adjust my own acts.

I original from China and study abroad right now. For me, go to England just change a place for my study abroad journey. I already have a lot of experience in learning other culture and I understand and accept the differences based on culture. I feel really excited about England because I will know more about England culture with a new lifestyle. Since I already study in the US for three years, and I traveled to lots of countries before. I can do most of the thing by myself and I can handle any emergency situations. I am an extrovert so I never afraid to talk with new people and express myself. I like to know what other people’s opinion and have discussion from various aspects. I like cats and Jazz music. My music and animal preference will help me make more friends when I aboard. This will help me have more topic in socially conversation.

I am a logical person. Maybe because I major in finance and economics. I really interested in this field, so the way I am thinking and talking will more from the economic side. I usually talk clear with fast-speed, while I try to express myself or I have a strong opinion on something. As a student, I would love more about the UK’s economic when I study abroad. This will be a good chance for me to know economic opinions from the locals. I will take economic classes when I study abroad in the UK. The format of the teaching and the class size will be totally different from NCC. The accent is one thing that I concern right now. I need to adapt the changing. Meanwhile, I will compare and contrast the US and UK’ economic after I know more about the UK. The UK is going on “Brexit”, so there will be a lot of economic activities and changing when I am there.   

I am looking forward to the study abroad in England. I will travel around the countries and experience more than I can not do in other places. I hope this journey--- the places I am going to visit, people that I am going to meet, and the things that I am going to learn, will give me a better understanding of myself and more mature.

. Con người thật thú vị, họ cứ muốn áp đặt cứ muốn áp đặt suy nghĩ của bản thân vào tấm lòng của người khác. Cuộc sống có như vậy mới muôn màu muôn sắc được. Đôi khi trắng tinh như một bông hoa chỉ làm cho người khác nhìn bạn thêm bẩn mỗi khi dính bụi. Cứ sặc sỡ như những khóm hoa màu lại luôn đẹp ngay cả khi có thứ gì đó dính lên. Nhưng không sao. Người ta cần phải tinh tế để thấy được vẻ đẹp của một bông hoa. Clownking #Flower #peronality

It’s hard for me to talk about my feelings in front of others. It makes me feel vulnerable and weak. I’m not in control of myself, I tend to cry. I don’t know how the other person will see me, will they understand? And being in that kind of state, being so open, there’s the fear of being rejected or unaccepted.
