Personally, i feel that LMS is all about learning different techniques to develop positive thinking in order to apply to our daily life. Also it consists of the introspection which is a self assessment of myself and most importantly reflection of the incidents that happened in my life which i believe these 2 aspects will definitely have a postive impact on the decisions i make in the future!!!

Initially i thought that LMS would be simply an ordinary IS module for me whereby i can just spend my time aimlessly. After attending the lessons of LMS, i am more aware of myself in terms of my personality as well as of the way the way i presented myself to my fellow friends in school. i believe that these will be crucial in our journey as we continue on studying and accomplish our dreams.

Public Self
This is what I share with others about me:
- Cheerful
- Friendly
- Caring
- Helpful
- Optimistic

Private Self
Think about how much of your private self you are willing to share. What are the benefits or drawbacks to sharing aspects of your private self?

Personally, I am willing to share about 80% of my inner personalities. This is because I feel that when we are faced with our friends, we should always be open and sincere, most importantly I believe that we should always be our true self. Indeed there are times where we chose to keep our true character to ourselves, as we may feel uncomfortable to reveal our negative personality to our friends, in the sense worrying that they will dislike us in the future. However I think as long as we are true and honest with each other, the friendship between us will last long.

My 5 year plan:

In 5 years time, i think i will be studying in a local university for my degree in accountancy and hence qualified as a certified accountant. Also i wish to pursue my diploma in music (piano) by then, in order to fulfill my passion for music Lastly, i hope that i will be able to maintain the close ties i have with my extended family, bringing joy to my loved ones.

i would like people to remember me as a cheerful and optismistic girl who always has a passion for music. Comparing the “I” today and five years from now, i believe i will become someone who is more confident with myself in terms of during work, speeches and managing my daily life. In addition, i hope to transform from one who is indecision to someone who can be firm in her decisions, whereby i can decide my choices myself without having to be influence by peers, etc. Lastly, i believe in 5 years time, i will become more independent compared to today, and hence able to manage my life in a better way which will contribute to a fruitful journey i have in the future.

In order to attain my goals to be what i can in 5 years time, i have to overcome mainly the fear of perfoming/speaking in public. Thus in order to curb this obstacle, i have joined BA Envoys whereby i will be taking up leadership positions and be involved in activities such as open house, camps and even stepping out to the secondary schools to give talks on the life in poly, hence using this as a platform for me to “open” up, less introvert and be more confident of myself.
