Ich bin weiblich, 20 Jahre alt, und ich lebe in Los Angeles, Vereinigte Staaten .

Momentanes Level: Normal

• 4

• Städte und Länder, die ich besucht habe

  So far I’ve been to Italy and England, although I’d like to visit more countries in the future.

  I went to England in the summer of 2017 while I was touring with the choir I was a part of. I went to Italy as a school trip to learn about the history

• Meine größte Errungenschaft

  Well I’m just glad I woke up today🙂

  But seriously, I really enjoy math, so I am very proud of being in a third year level math class in my first year of high school. I’ve also been working on piano since I was three, so I guess I’m proud of that too because it takes real commitment!!

• Mein Interesse an anderen Kulturen

  I’ve always found other cultures fascinating because many of them are so different from my own experiences. I’m 1/4 Korean, so I am especially interested in learning about Korean culture as well as the language. I really want to visit Korea, and it’s possible that I will next year, although it’s not set it in stone. But my fingers are crossed!!🙂

• Ich bin ein Experte in...

  Well I’ve been playing piano for a long time as I mentioned before, but I’m not sure if that makes me an expert. I’d like to think that it does though. 🙂

• Eine persönliche Herausforderung

  I did a ropes course in fourth grade, which was kind of traumatizing (it’s a long story), and I survived middle school, which still baffles me to this day.

• Lieblingsbuch/-autor/-film

  Favorite books:
  Lord of the Rings, the Hobbit, and basically everything by Jules Verne

  Authors:
  Tolkien and Jules Verne

  Films:
  I like horror films like the Conjuring franchise, and I also watch a lot of Korean romcoms. Also every Akira Kurosawa film.

• Für ein Jahr im Ausland leben

  I think I would go to South Korea so I could meet new people and immerse myself in the language. I’m hoping that I will someday🙂

• Ich rede immer gerne über...

  I really like talking about my life goals and I enjoy hearing about other people’s as well. Also, any deep philosophical/intellectual discussion is welcome. I also enjoy talking about cultural difference as well as school and daily life.

• Die Welt zu einem besseren Platz machen

  This is going to sound totally cliche, but I think that we should find ways to end wars and oppressive governments. How? I’m not sure. If you have any ideas, I’d love to hear them

• Persönliche Fähigkeiten

  I have the ability to look at things analytically and pay attention to detail, which I suppose is why I like math.

• Freuden der Kindheit

  I really loved watching Winnie the Pooh!! Do you know it?

• Ich habe vor Kurzem gelernt...

  Uhh.... you can hear a blue whale’s heart beat from two miles away... I read it on the internet.

• In zehn Jahren

  Well, by then I’ll hopefully have a college degree and a good job, maybe as an actuary, statistician, or investment banker. It would also be nice if I was married, or at least in a committed long term relationship, but you never know.

• Ich bin begeistert von...

  I’m really excited to go to college, because it’s a place where you can be intellectually free (usually) and you can meet all types of people! I’m hoping to study abroad in Korea, and travel to different spots all over the world.

• Etwas ungewöhnliches über mich

  People have told me that I have a sharp sense of humor, but I’m not sure what exactly that means.

• Früher war es besser

  Well, in my parents’ generation it was a lot safer for kids. For example, both my parents walked to school on their own in kindergarten, but nowadays that wouldn’t be safe.

• Jetzt ist es besser

  I think that a lot of technological advances have been made since then, making a lot of things more convenient now than they were back then. It used to be that if you wanted information about something, you had to go to the library and look through books, sometimes for hours, until you found what you needed. Now, we can look something up on the internet and get the information right away. I also think that the fashion has improved, in my humble opinion.

• Ich wünschte, die Menschen würden mehr wissen über...

  I wish more people would understand how their rude/inconsiderate actions affect others. Better yet, I wish people would care about how their actions affect others.

• Als Kind wünsche ich mir...

  I wish I would have been more athletic when I was younger. I’m not overweight by any standards, but I’m out of shape and I get short of breath too easily. That’s something that lately I’ve been trying to change about myself.

• Eine Karriere ohne Hindernisse

  If I could pick any career, it would probably be a lottery winner🙂

  But actually, I would want to be in a career that is high paying and involves math and finance.

• Meine Eltern und ich

  I would say the biggest mentality between my parents and me would be the social/communication differences between my generation and theirs. They don’t always understand the social norms of my generation, and I don’t always understand the social norms of theirs.

• Meine Gefühle über die Zukunft

  I’m feeling really optimistic about the future!! I’m very excited for college, and I’m hoping I’ll get a high paying job and possibly meet “the one.”

• Meine Meinung zur Natur des Menschen

  I’m sorry, this is going to sound cynical, but I think that human nature is to be selfish. Think about it. Even when you help another person, you’re doing it because it makes YOU feel good about when something good happens to them, so ultimately, you’re still in a way doing it for yourself.

• Ich bin besorgt wegen...

  I’m a bit concerned about my study habits to be honest. I procrastinate way too much, which is something I’m working on changing.

• Ein kleiner Rat

  Don’t goof off in high school and act like your grades don’t matter, because having poor grades in high school is going to make your life difficult. Also, don’t do anything illegal like vaping, drinking, smoking, or sending nudes when you’re underage because that could have serious consequences.

• Ich bereue...

  I regret not putting more effort into my freshman year of high school because I believe that if I did, I would have gotten better grades.

• Das Schulsystem verbessern

  I really think more schools should invest in programs for learning different languages. It’s a great way to improve your mind and be able to connect with new people!!

• Über- oder unterschätzt

  Overrated:
  Hamilton, Adele, Queen, and Leonardo DiCaprio (please don’t hate me!! I’m not saying I think they’re bad, I’m just saying that I don’t think they’re as great as they’re made out to be.)

  Underrated:
  Classical music, broadway, old movies, and math

• Etwas, das du der Welt erzählen willst

  I really want to find a long term pen pal to connect with and form a deep friendship with. Also, please, for the love of God, don’t send me a pick up line or I will cry.
