  • 2.1 Oxidative Damage

    Getting EVERY individual to take antioxidants to prevent from oxidative damage is taking forever. Instead of the pill, I created a special super huge spray to release free radicals by using a helicopter. Every individual in this planet will already inhale the free radicals daily and their bodies develop to resist oxidative damage. Every infant born into this planet will automatic get free radicals. The spray has to be done every year to refresh the activity in their bodies.
  • 4.4 Childhood Attachment Experiences

    My attachment style has been secure for many years without even realizing it until I was like 14 years old. I started rebelling my parents and telling them that I don't care anymore, which showed strongly in dismissing style. The looks I saw on my parents' faces broke my heart. I realized that we disconnected and our relationships were not the same anymore. Then I imagined what if they die tomorrow and I don't want to end things like this. I got my attachment, secure, back...and still is. :)
  • 7.2 Transitions

    My mother informed me that my very close grandpa died. It didn't hit me until 30 mins later, it triggered me that I won't see him ever again. Later, I realized that the ones I love won't live forever. It terrified the heck out of me, but it has gained my self-awareness that I shall need to grab every moment with them when I have opportunity. So, I have been spending A LOT of time with my parents now. This experience has showed specific transition from individualistic to integrated.
  • 1.1 The Beginning

    The day when I turned into 18 years old, I considered myself as an adult. This decision was made based on normative history graded (culture), my family strongly believed once a person becomes 18 years old then they are adults. Our belief has changed from chronological age into psychological and social age as we realized that ages were just numbers. So, it was based on our ability to deal things on our own and be responsible with multiple roles. Luckily, I met all of the criteria when I was 18.
  • 7.3 Major Life Event

    My sister and her ex-girlfriend drunkly damaged things and harmed my father. They were arrested and sent to mental hospital, and I witnessed the whole thing. After that event, I had struggled to cope my emotions (anxiety), so I went to see my doctor to discuss about the incident. I asked for help, which I have gotten anxiety medication to be able to control my emotions and thoughts. It has been working for me. Other method I use is, cry it out and talk about it.
  • 2.2 Genetic Limits

    In 20s, people will get their bloods tested to discover the length of their telomeres. If they are shorter, then I will replace them into longer ones by syringing into cells. Women tends to live longer than men; therefore, men will get their estrogen level higher by implanting a Nexplanon (same concept with birth control method) in their groins to release estrogen into their hormones systems. The Nexplanon will need to be replaced in each 10 years.
  • 2.3 My Current Healthy Lifestyle

    The survey about my healthy lifestyle has impacted me as I realized how much I didn't take care of myself. I determine my health by my appearance like my shape, skin, and etc. I assumed I am healthy because I look fine. I learned the fact that it was not about appearance, it was about what's inside me (my bone, muscles, blood, and more). From now on, I will start eating more fruits & vegetables daily and less carbs. I also will need to find a workout buddy to keep up my motivation with lifting.
  • 4.3 Adult Attachment Style

    My result has shown my attachment style which is secure. I strongly agree with it because I get emotionally with my boyfriend very easily. He is the first person I would ever go to whenever I need to talk or tell about my day. My attachment has developed over time when my love for him increased daily. But, due to my anxiety, I STILL worry if he doesn't love me or he will leave me someday. I am handling it everyday, and he keeps reminding me that he LOVES me so much Anxiety thoughts are very hard
  • 7.1 Fowler

    In my entire life, I have synthetic-conventional faith. I used to attend the churches when I was younger. I have been brain washed about God for many years. That has became my implicit assumption that God created everything. I happened to remain believing that, but I started questioning this faith. Like, where did God come from? How did he just appear out of the blue? My questions toward God has shifted a little bit to conjunctive faith to avoid from fixed truth that seems very impossible.
  • 6.4 Autonomous Stage

    One of my classmates stated that her uncle realized that world has changed over time after 9/11 incident. Prices/taxes and security increased highly. He struggled to understand what happened but later he accepted the fact that it is how it is. Right now, Trump is my president and I believe I will witness this world changes a lot over time comparing to past a few years ago. That's something I can't really control over but I can always view it as a nature of the world. It happens for a reason.
  • 4.1 Young Adult Role Transition

    I personally always want to get married at young age, 23 years old. I think at that age is perfect time to get married and enjoy the marriage for a few years before getting kids. One challenge of the marriage would be egalitarian roles, because I currently am in love with my boyfriend. I love him so much to a point where I encourage him to make decisions all the time. I caught myself that I made myself much lesser than him. I have to step up and speak for myself and my boyfriend also agrees.
  • 6.1 My RIASEC Type

    My RIASEC result has showed my two highest type which are social and artistic. As of right now, I am majoring in Psychology, which means I want to work with people. That has showed strongly in social, working and helping people. I used to major in graphic design because art is my passion, later I realized that it was my hobby not career related. According to figure 7.2, it mentioned about being creative, that has impacted me because artistic doesn't mean working with art or music only!
  • 6.2 Super's Stages

    As I have mentioned I wanted to work with people, but I am still not sure what I want to do exactly. Applying to Super's Five Stages of Career Development, I believe I will stay in exploration stage for a long time. I never want to stick with one job for years until I retire. I want to explore as much as I can before staying with one to 'settle down'. By age 30, establishment stage would be more like started, working with same position for a few years before getting promotions.
  • 2.4 Potential Consequences of My Lifestyle

    Reading through all Tables frightened me to death because I am qualified to each risk possible in the future. I have high blood pressure and I don't eat right and exercise regularly. I have a sedentary lifestyle, because I am extremely lazy as I always watch Netflix and take naps...everyday. As of right now, it is pretty harmless for me because I am still young, but I have to change my lifestyle NOW to prevent the potentials of cardiovascular disease, cancer, diabetes, and Alzheimer's disease.
  • 6.3 Intimacy VS. Isolation

    One of my classmates' Life History Presentation have mentioned about a woman who loses her two deaf siblings (one twin brother and younger sister) when she was about 20 years old. She suffered the heartbroken but she created a new intimate relationship with her husband. I believe I will experience isolation whenever my mother/father dies, because I am very close with them. Will I be able to love someone again? Or will I be afraid to create new intimate relationships after the heartbroken?
  • 3.1 Prospective Memory

    I believe when I reach to 75 age, my prospective memory will decline. I personally don't need to write down or use reminder to remind myself what I need to do later or in the future. It's like a strength for me, but it will decline when I get older. Alzheimer's disease runs in my family; therefore, I have a chance to get it. It means it will inference my instrumental activities of daily; therefore, I shall need to use a daily reminder book to keep up with my tasks and plans.
  • 4.2 Older Adult Role Transition

    I expect to live alone after my husband dies, and it terrified me because I couldn't imagine living without him. I used to be very independent until I got a boyfriend. I became needy and clingy because I love him. So, in the text, it said women often experience this because the age gap between women and men. Luckily, my boyfriend has the same age as mine. But, in the case, I need to learn how to be independent. I need to learn how to love without having to be needy. This will be very difficult.
  • 8.1 The End

    Christy Lyn Grindstaff, 89, of Haleiwa, died December 27, 2085, at Mr and Mrs. Grindstaff's second home.
    Mrs. Grindstaff was born on September 11, 1996, in Sacramento, California, to Dean and Cherie Zendarski
    She attended Maryland School for the Deaf, met the love of her life, Jake Grindstaff.
    Both of them went to Gallaudet University for five years, and travelled different places.
    Her life was all about precious love.
    Christy and Jake died in same bed, holding hands.
  • 3.2 Episodic Memory

    Thinking about losing my episodic memory terrified me that I don't want to get old ever. Having Alzheimer's disease in my gene can get much worse when I get older when I arrive to a point where I am dying. I will forget who I am, my family, and my entire life. My activities of daily will be entirely changed, as I forgot my daily routines. I strongly believe in this situation I will need someone by my side. Helping me with everything and showing me pictures of my past life & telling me stories.
