Allana Kaname KIRSTIN FIONA Adventurous spirit is my charm Just an extrovert who likes her solitude! Just the loudest shy person you know! "I have come to love myself for who I am, for who I was, and for who I want to become" — RM of BTS
Liv Baylon fun fact!: my old nickname was Jao because of my full name, Jaster Aihne Oliver but I don't use it anymore because it sounds like a guy's name and my college friends told me I don't look like a Jao! about me I’m an ESFJ-T ambivert but leaning towards extroversion more with the right people. Some people initially think of me as sky or masungit because it takes me some time to get comfortable around new people because I like to read and understand them better. However, once I loosen up, I become more outgoing, joke around, and be myself. I am also a reserved person who takes my time to get to know people before becoming too close and opening up. This year, a significant event happened in my life, which became a turning point for me. It changed my mindset, and I started believing in mantras like: "It is what it is" "Rejection is redirection, " "Trust the process, " "If it's meant to be, then it will be. " I am also an adventurous person. Whenever an opportunity arises to go somewhere new, I almost always take it because I believe that no matter how small an experience is, it is still an experience that I will be able to share with my family in the future and look back on without any regrets.
My initial shyness, or having my walls up around new people appears to be a learned response. It may have been rooted from past experiences or social conditioning, which has also led to me having trust issues. It's as though I've developed a cautious approach to new relationships due to a combination of upbringing and interactions over time. However, I have come to realize that by taking my time to build deeper connections, I can experience the rewarding feeling of forming meaningful relationships, as this is a classic principle of behavioral reinforcement. By embracing new mantras and actively restructuring my thoughts and responses, I have undergone a transformation. This change is a product of conscious efforts to reshape my cognition and become a better version of myself, as it is influenced by introspection, experiences, and exposure to new perspectives. Additionally, my willingness to experience new things without regrets is an example of my anticipation for positive outcomes, which motivates me to seize the moment. Lastly, my behavior is influenced by a blend of internal and external factors, and my commitment to personal growth through self-directed behavior modification continues to shape my journey. behavioral approach 1 Taylor Swift After a long day of completing academic and organizational requirements, I find comfort in engaging in activities that help me relax. One of my go-to activities is watching Modern Family. This show has been my comfort show since the very first episode, and it never fails to make me feel at ease. I cozy up, get my favorite food and drinks, sit back, and enjoy the show. Mygo-to activities fave combo: fries and sb matcha! another fun fact! my ultimate dream in life is to become a pilot hehehe <3 this is your captain speaking! my favorite artists! 2 Day6 3 NIKI
As an ESFJ-T ambivert, I have come to appreciate my unique traits and tendencies, and I have made a conscious effort to focus on my personal development. One significant event that occurred this year was a turning point in my life. It made me realize the importance of pushing myself to my limits, and it inspired me to embrace new mantras. Since then, I have noticed a significant change in my mindset. I tend to look at the brighter side of things and no longer dwell on things that are beyond my control. As the saying goes, "It is what it is." This significant event has been a catalyst for my personal growth, and I have made a promise to myself to continue to grow and develop as an individual. The humanistic approach highlights the importance of understanding and embracing one's unique qualities, and I am committed to this process. I believe that personal growth is a lifelong journey, and I am excited to see where this journey takes me. humanistic approach trait approach The trait approach highlights how specific traits within my personality contribute to my behavior and choices. Extraversion, adaptability, optimism, and openness are some of the attributes that together create my identity and affect how I interact with people and react to different circumstances. When I'm feeling down, I frequently engage in consoling pursuits like binge-watching my favorite TV show, "Modern Family." This routine I have helps me unwind and recharge as a type of self-care. It's interesting to see how my personality traits still affect my behavior and decisions during these peaceful times. Furthermore, my sense of adventure motivates me to take advantage of every chance, no matter the situation. I have taken advantage of numerous possibilities because I am driven to experience as much as I can before I am old. Overall, the trait approach provides a valuable framework for understanding how my personality traits shape my identity and influence my experiences. By recognizing the importance of these traits, I am able to better understand myself and make choices that align with my values and goals.
I take an MBTI test almost every year, just to see if anything changed and it would always show that my MBTI type is ENFP. This means that, generally, I am charismatic, imaginative, and independent. Fun fact: some of my favorite characters are also ENFPs! J a ke Peralta Lorelai Gilmore Phil Dunphy Enola Holmes Allana Columbres An extroverted person who can get along with anyone, but I am not naive or pushy. I know how to read the room and match the energy of the people I’m with! I value my friendships a lot but while I thrive in social situations, I still value and cherish my alone time because it allows me to pursue my personal interests and accomplish errands and other tasks. Expect the worst, hope for the best I have developed a resilience that enables me to handle sudden changes and uncertainties with ease; without getting too overwhelmed. My optimism serves as a guide in challenging situations – with the thought that everything will get better. I believe that this is also why I take criticism lightly. I take my academic and career goals seriously! I prefer having a clear strategy rather than relying on chance or luck. However, I’m not very strict on decisions when it’s mundane like where to eat or what to wear, etcetera. About Me: Leo sun, Taurus moon, Sagittarius rising

Behavioral Approach Although I admit that I get annoyed easily, especially when people aren’t true to their word, I don’t let it get the best of me. I can say that my emotions are well-composed, especially when I' m under pressure. This was something I learned through the years as I also like to engage in selfreflection for my own improvement. While I hold strong values and beliefs, especially in matters like politics, I remain open-minded. I am willing to learn more or change my perspective if I have to. In situations where my opinion is needed, I give my unbiased perspective, but still try my best to not sound offensive. My outgoing personality highlights my ability to adapt well to social situations. I also value my alone time, showing that I appreciate my personal space. My annual MBTI test-taking shows that I' m curious about understanding myself better. I' m calm under pressure, which suggests I' ve learned to roll with the punches. Plus, I' m generally an optimist and believe things will work out even when faced with challenges. I' m open-minded and good at communicating respectfully too – I' m always ready to learn, see different sides of things, and share my thoughts without causing offense.
Humanistic Perspective Looking at things from a humanistic perspective, I find a lot of value in forming deep connections and being able to sense the mood in social situations. This seems to show that I' m pretty emotionally aware and can relate to others. It's also clear in how I communicate – I try to be respectful and open-minded, welcoming different viewpoints. On the flip side, I really enjoy my alone time. It's like my way of recharging and thinking about life, which I think helps me develop as a person. I' m also quite curious about understanding who I am, which is why I' m into those personality tests. They help me uncover parts of myself and appreciate my individuality. When things get tough, my ability to bounce back and stay positive shows that I' m good at handling challenges and keeping my cool in uncertain times. I' ve got these strong beliefs and values that are a core part of me, and being true to them helps me grow as a person too. Hi! You ' ve reached the end of my page! I hope you learned a thing or two about me. Let's get to know each other more! Depth Psychology My extroverted and adaptable nature might arise from an unconscious need for connection and validation, while my affinity for solitude could relate to introspection, reflected in my interest in personality tests. Frustration over unmet promises may stem from trust issues, and inner strength during challenges could result from coping mechanisms developed in my upbringing. Positive resilience could trace back to past encouragement. Seeking clear goals balances with my ease in simpler choices. Open-mindedness and respectful communication might spring from a yearning for fairness and harmonious relationships, fostering the embrace of diverse perspectives. XOXO,
Kaname ”Adventurous spirit is my charm ” Sociable and curious Strong curiosity in pursuing new experiences and knowledge Has experience moving to different parts of Japan and to the Philippines ↓ My personality is characterized by the traits of extroversion and curiosity. The extroversion trait describes you as sociable and friendly. The trait of curiosity makes you flexible, and open to change. However, the tendency to ponder and think negatively is also part of my characteristics, and this may be an area of my personality that needs to be addressed. Trait Approach Name: Kaname Masamura Introvert Vs. Extravert? Personality Type: My MTBI ESFJ ISFJ Interestingly, the personalities in the Philippines and Japan are different. Perhaps this is due to the language barrier?
I can say that my personality emphasizes a desire for self-exploration and growth. You appear to be interested in seeking new experiences and expanding your personal potential. The pursuit of self-actualization will be an important factor in my decision to study in various parts of Japan on my own to improve my English skills, and then to attend a university in the Philippines. Chances are I was nurtured from an early age to relate to and enjoy communicating with different people. The fact that you make friends easily and find yourself surrounded by many kind-hearted people is a result of my social traits being emphasized. Additionally, your willingness to try new experiences without fear of being immersed in a different environment or culture is also associated with extraversion and curiosity.

Ghelan Abcde Mendoza Aboutme: Introvert or Extrovert? I would describe myself as an extroverted person who genuinely enjoys meeting new people and making new friendships. I take great pleasure in engaging in meaningful conversations with individuals whom I feel I can trust. However, there are times when a more reserved side of me emerges; this occurs when I find myself feeling uncomfortable or having a lack of connection with the people around me. Facts about my personality: soft-hearted I see myself as someone with high sensitivity, often described as being "soft-hearted. " This aspect of my personality serves as both a strength and a weakness. My sensitivity can sometimes overwhelm me, yet it allows me to deeply understand and empathize with the people in my life, especially my loved ones. Perhaps this is why I tend to avoid correcting people directly. Instead, I prefer to ask questions that lead them to realize their mistakes. Nevertheless, when situations become too challenging, I prioritize my peace of mind and establish necessary boundaries. I have learned not to allow others to take advantage of me, and this growth is something I take pride in.
Facts about my personality: impulsive I must admit that I tend to be impulsive, particularly when it comes to shopping and making decisions. For instance, if I come across a beautiful bag, I might spend hours browsing to find more options and then decide to purchase it, given that I have the means to do so. Some may not appreciate this trait, but I try to balance it by being mindful of my budget and making purchases that align with my financial means. Similarly, in minor situations, I tend to act impulsively, doing what I believe is right without overthinking. This willingness to take risks and trust my intuition is both an advantage and a part of my "it is what it is" thought. I hold a belief that certain events in life are unchangeable and necessitate acceptance. However, I also strive to learn from every experience and apply them for my personal growth. my younger self would be proud to see the wonderful friendships I've made, and to the woman I am becoming.

My extroverted personality and how I genuinely enjoy meeting new people and forming new connections are reinforced by the rewards it brings. For instance, whenever I connect with others, I might gain social praise and attention, which reinforces my extroverted behavior. As for my high sensitivity or being "soft-hearted, " this emotional response pattern can be shaped by past experiences and environmental factors. When I show compassion and empathy, others reciprocate with love and kindness. These positive responses serve as reinforcements, encouraging me to continue having sensitive and empathic behaviors. Moreover, my attitude of indirectly correcting others through questions may have been a learned behavior from the past when open confrontation resulted in negative effects such as arguments or relationship problems. As a result, I've adopted a kinder and indirect approach. My impulsiveness might be driven by immediate gratification and a focus on short-term results. The pleasurable experience of gaining something I want and the desire to act quickly and assert over a situation, making me feel more capable reinforces my impulsive behavior. Depth Psychology: My outgoing nature might be rooted in my unconscious desire for approval from others. I derive my energy and happiness through interacting with people, which, in terms of depth psychology, might be viewed as a means to look for external affirmation to boost my confidence and sense of identity. Moreover, having this emotional sensitivity to my surroundings may have its roots in my early experiences, especially the connections I had with my guardians. I think that in order to cope with this world and protect my emotional well-being, I become more sensitive to my own emotions as well as those of others. Instead of correcting individuals directly, I prefer to ask them questions that would help and make them recognize their mistakes, which is probably driven by empathetic nature. While my impulsiveness in certain situations might be connected to unconscious desires for immediate fulfillment or serves as a coping mechanism for negative emotions or conflicts that I find challenging to deal with consciously. Behavioral Approach: Humanistic Approach: My extroverted personality is viewed as an expression of my innate drive for social connection and self-actualization from a humanistic perspective. It may also indicate my growth-oriented character. My high sensitivity and being "soft-hearted" are viewed as signs of emotional depth and empathy. It indicates that I have a strong ability to empathize with people and understand their emotions. Lastly, my impulsiveness can be viewed as a natural and honest expression of my individuality. It can also be viewed as an expression of the humanistic concept of living in the present and appreciating the events that are happening at the moment. My willingness to make impulsive choices may be a result of my drive to make use of the best opportunity in order to fully engage in every moment of life.
w FIONA ? ho is I have the habit of taking photos and curating an archive of my everyday activities, and various media/art that inspires me. I've always loved watching movies since I was a kid. I have kept a journal of my film logs, and I love listening to music (of any genres! from metal to k-pop, u name it!) Since I also love 70s-00s rock music, I get to collect CDs and tapes WHERE I post my collections as well. Additionally, I meet people and enjoy live music (Funfact: I go to concerts every month... X_x) I enjoy taking strolls and doing errands on my own. Since I am a panganay, I' m always tasked to do stuff, it was hard but this led me to embrace being alone and being independent.

MY FAVORITE THINGS... born in november 2001 scorpio sun, leo moon and rising first daughter in an asian household! haha Quiet, curious, open-minded, and imaginative. Born into a pretty eventful childhood, I got to live in different environments growing up. I recall playing a lot with my cousins and family, yet there was a time that I spent years without contact from a loved one. Since I am the panganay, I had to be independent from an early age, and this has shaped me on how to grow on my own, acknowledge my experiences, and learn.
Behavioral Behavioral Ap roach p roach Being the first-born child, I had experiences where I was expected to become independent and responsible at an early age. Sometimes I had rewards, but most of the time, consequences were given if these expectations are not met -- this has given me enough experiences to reflect about negative and positive reinforcements that continue to affect me today. Humanistic Approach Driven by the need of self-actualization and fulfillment, I have mentioned that I enjoy doing things that align with my interests and to continuously find my passion. I engage in activities that seek to find meaning and purpose in their lives, often through engaging in activities that they believe contribute to a greater good. Additionally, these little things that I continue to do help me shape my identity and know more who I am. These experiences are here to let me know more about the various colors of people I meet and interact with, giving me sheer joy and satisfaction as well. As I grew older, my self-actualization journey may have led me to explore different aspects of my personality. Growing up, I was always the loud and extroverted kid but now I've become that introverted adult whose ambitious with her goals. My past experiences as a child has enabled me to hide my emotions and stay strong however, I am trying to unlearn these behaviors. Embracing one's true self is one of the core tenets of the humanistic approach, exemplifying my journey towards embracing the qualities of my genuine nature. The transition from being loud to quiet doesn't necessarily mean suppressing your extroverted side, this allows me to explore my aspirations deeply, while having that past extraversion in check to have the social skills only when needed. trait approach I feel more comfortable in solitary settings or with a close-knit circle of friends. Introverts tend to focus on their inner thoughts and feelings, often thriving in environments that provide space for reflection and deep connections. My introverted personality, nurtured by a free upbringing, has harmonized with my careeroriented motivation. This combination has led to a self-driven pursuit of meaningful goals. However, the lack of rigid academic structure and the absence of strict academic pressure from my parents might have given me the freedom and space to explore, but has contributed to moments of confusion as I navigate my identity. The key lies in leveraging my introspective nature to chart a path that aligns with my values and fosters a sense of purpose and fulfillment. If needed, seeking guidance from mentors or career advisors can provide valuable insights to help navigate these intricacies. I definitely would wish that my parents have raised me in more sustainable and postivie ways but I had to accept that it was only a result of past circumstances. There was definitely cognitive dissonance as my parents were strict, but have given me the freedom to learn things on my own -- giving me mixed messages. This enables me to understand myself more so I know how to approach other people properly.
Kirstin ABOUT ME! HOBBIES Full Name: Kirstin Grace P, Yap Birthday: Novermber 19, 2002 Age: 20 Zodiac sign: Scorpio Pronouns: she/her Nationality: Filipino School: DLSU-Manila Degree Program: BS Psychology I am a deeply goal-oriented and a highly motivated invidivual, driven by a continuous desire for achievement. I thrive on challenges and as much as possible, I refuse to settle for anything less than excellence. I think the roots of this drive can be traced back to the influence of my parents. My dad has always been so hardworking and goal-driven. Ever since I was young, he never fails to remind me how important it is to try my best in everything and know my life’s “WHY”. Both my parents have also consistently supported me, which helped shape my determination to excel. I am an ISFJ-T. Some people may think that I am an extrovert because I spend so much time going out with friends. But in reality, I really find solace and productivity in my own company. I’m also a listener type of person. I appreciate it when people trust me enough and feel comfortable when telling their stories or making “chikas”. This quality resonates with my empathetic and helpful nature. Witnessing others undergo hardship or distress deeply affects me, and I find it challenging to witness them having a hard time. Consequently, I strive to offer help to those in need to the best of my abilities. I even cry whenever I see people cry because I always try to put myself in their shoes. This desire to help others is actually one of the reasons why I am pursuing Psychology. My Personality Type My Personality Type TOP TRACKS THIS MONTH
stor ms don't last forever stor ms don't last forever MY FAVORITES: Education-wise, I tend to be meticulous in arranging my tasks. I enjoy adhering to deadlines, creating daily timelines, and making to-do lists to ensure that I stay on track. This practice is especially beneficial for me as I tend to be forgetful. By maintaining organization and structure in my daily routine, I am better able to recall tasks and deadlines. Moreover, I am drawn to the creative realm. While I may not have complete confidence in more academicallyoriented skills, I thrive when engaging in creative pursuits such as graphic design, photo/video editing, and fashion. These outlets provide the canvas for my imaginative expressions to flourish During high school, I went through a phase where the people close to me repeatedly betrayed my trust. While I am now in the process of learning to trust my friends and family, remnants of these experiences persist, which contribute to my hesitancy in opening up to others. Nevertheless, this hasn't hindered my ability to overcome these challenges. Despite having faced past instances of betrayal, I consciously choose to extend forgiveness, prioritize my inner peace, and strive to become a better version of myself. This enduring optimism drives me forward, empowering me to conquer obstacles and view setbacks not as weaknesses, but as valuable steps toward personal growth.
