On the first day of our meeting for PERSEF3, I didnt really know what to expect on what we will do or have for our first meeting but I got surprized that miss brought out a bag full of little papers for our ice breakers. I took out a random paper and it was some kind of introduction. I introduced myself but i was nervous just because i didnt really know what to say at first the I gave insights right after in proportion to the blanks in the piece of paper. I got to know how others feel and react towards these piece of paper, and the more they talk about it, the more i get to know them and get to learn from them. The second paper was just a word on "Family," it was actually something that we have to describe to, the first thing that came into my mind was the love and support of my family which i talked about. They really are the most supportive family that I have and Im blessed that I have a family like them.
What I noticed about the first strip of paper was a structured fill in the blank kind of introduction, I really liked how this was formed because it really helps me formulate what to say in a more formal manner, I believe structured things are good for me so that my mind is always set and ready for what to say next. with structured things, its easy for me to finish on a good note and pick up thoughts and answers fast from my head.
In class we also had an activity on "Practice Makes Perfect" it was actually really fun because it tests the quickness, responsiveness and sharpness of every student. I really had to challenge myself on how fast I could go, but I think I was over confident, thats why I ended up being last of all my partners in the timing. I really believed that I could do it faster than them but maybe I was just too caught up in trying to do good. And maybe I was a little too impatient too. Maybe I should really take it easy with these things and maybe I could get a higher time next time. We also had an activity on the Resilience Quotient which really tests on how Resilient we are as persons and how we bounce back from trouble, sadness and depression. According to the activity we did in class, and seeing my check marks on what I agree on. I am a resilient person but not a full resilient one, becase I lack the confidence in myself to do more than what I can do. I think that self confidence really helps in getting through life the right way and happily. I just need to work on my self confidence so that I can become a better resilient person. But all in all, I always remain optimistic, I tend to calm myself down when there is trouble and I always find a way into troubles.
What I could have shared in class that afternoon was that I could have shown and said to them all that loving the family is very important, even if the family you're in maybe experiencing issues and hardships. I believe you still have to stick with everything that the family goes through because the family will get through those problems and become stronger people which is definitely good for each member especially in the confidence department.
