I had to look out for myself more
I have always come off to people as quiet, shy, and introverted, but in reality, I am just focused. Other people think that because I don’t smile often that I don’t want to get to know them, but I do. I can actually be pretty outgoing, it just requires trust and the right environment and people. I am really passionate about being a psychology major and being a child life specialist in the future. This also stems from the fact that my parents got divorced when I was really young and this forced me to grow up quicker than the average six-year-old. I had to look out for myself more. It was really hard and I want to help others going through the same situation and help navigate them through it. I visited counselors when I was younger and they helped me realized the good in helping others and how healthy it is to vent. Because I am so focused this has allowed me to be a good listener and ideal for the career I want to go into. I am passionate.
