1. Personality Project.
On my first slide, I show three pictures to symbolize my family. One picture is of a
golden retriever, representing my dog who’s a golden, named Maggie. Also, there’s a Christmas
tree, which stands for the fact that my whole family gets together on Christmas and celebrates
together. Lastly, there is a photo of a five person family with a mom, dad, and three girls. This
symbolizes my family because there is the same amount of people.
Next are my inherited features. My first photo shows blue eyes because I inherited blue
eyes from my dad. After that, there is a short man next to a taller man. The shorter man is
being pointed to because I am very short for my age and this is because my mom was short,
too. Finally, there’s a picture of a girl with long, wavy, brown hair, which is what my hair
naturally looks like. I got this trait from my mom too, because this is exactly what her hair looks
like.
After this is my inherited traits, such as the fact that I’m right handed like both of my
parents. Also, it shows two athletes, which shows that I am athletic, just like both of my parents
were. Last but not least, the picture of the glasses symbolizes the fact that I once had bad eyes,
just like my dad, and had to wear glasses. Now, though, my eyes have readjusted and are fine.
In the next slide, I show my outer appearance is shown. One picture is of a hair
straightener because more often than not, I use my straightener every morning on my hair.
Also, I have the Abercrombie and Fitch and American Eagle logo because they are my two
favorite clothing brands. Last, there is a picture of herbal essences because that’s the product
brand that I use.
For my social behavior slide, one picture I show is of a volleyball. I show one because
playing volleyball is a big part of my life and is something I spend a lot of time doing. Also,
there’s a cell phone shown right next to it because talking on the phone and texting my friends’
is something that I do often to stay social. The last picture is a logo of facebook which is there
because my facebook account keeps me connected to all of my friends all the time, which is
important to me.
My next slide talks about some of my talents and skills. There is a picture of a flute and
piano because I played both instruments until about 6th grade. The other two are both sport-
related and deals with talents I have acquired. First is a runner, because I love to run and can
run for long distances for a long time. Also, there’s a photo of two volleyball players, which
symbolizes my skills in the sport.
Future plans of mine are discussed in my next slide. First off, the picture of the students
in their caps and gowns shows graduating, which I definitely feel is important to do. Also, the
picture of a family merely symbolizes how important I find it to want to have a family when I
grow up. Lastly, there picture of a team while the arrow points at the coach. More than
anything I would love to coach a volleyball team to help kids love the game as much as I do.
Following that slide, my favorite and least favorite foods are displayed. There is a picture
of the Buffalo Wild Wings logo because that is easily my favorite restaurant. In addition, the
bananas and Chinese food symbolize some of my other favorite types of food overall. Although,
the last picture is of an orange with an X on it to show how much I dislike oranges.
2. Next, to start of my slide of fears and pet peeves, I have a picture of a coral reef, just to
symbolize the ocean in general. More than anything, I am deadly afraid of the deep part of the
ocean and all of the creatures that live down there. Along with that, I am very afraid of cats
from bad experiences and always will be. Also, I am extremely afraid of even just the thought of
cemeteries because of the sadness I feel. Finally, I wrote the word “LIAR” because more than
anything, I cannot stand when people lie about something that they know they did. This is
easily my biggest pet peeve.
In my next slide, I talk about my favorites in many categories. One topic I covered was
my favorite band; which is All Time Low and is shown in the first picture. Next is a picture of
Taylor Swift’s CD, which is filled with all of some of my favorite songs. After that, a scene of The
Bachelor is shown; which is my favorite TV show. Lastly, the cover of the movie, New Moon is
there because it is without a doubt my favorite movie.
In these next few pictures, I show a lot of my emotions and feelings. For example, in the
photo of the girl and her sister, it’s there to symbolize the fact that my sister and I used to fight
all of the time, but only do occasionally now. Also, the dog in the cage is to show how much I
feel for injured or abandoned animals. Next, the picture of the boy losing is there to show the
disappointment I have when I lose any game. Following that, a picture of friends is there to
represent how happy I feel when I’m just with my friends. Finally, the picture of the surgeon
operating on his patient is there to represent the sadness and uneasiness I feel around any
medical components.
Last but not least, my final slide has many pictures symbolizing important life
experiences I’ve had. For my first photo, I decided to show a picture of the cruise ship, the
Freedom of the Seas. I put this here to show that I went on a cruise over Christmas break in
2009, which so much fun. Below that there is a picture of one of the islands we stopped at, to
represent where I’ve been. After that, I showed a photo of a new born baby because, recently,
my cousin Lauren had a new baby girl named Laila. This was a very special and important time
for my whole family. Finally, the picture of the two people getting married represents my aunt
and soon to be uncle who will be getting married very soon. After reading this essay or
watching my PowerPoint, you will know some things already, but may learn some new things
that may surprise you.
