Hello!
It's nice to meet you.
Where are you from?
What about "Who are you?"
Of course not. That's an uncomfortable question. What if I inaccurately respond and end up bending the truth? Or worse: what if I'm not interesting?
YOU ARE! Of course you are! Everyone is interesting. Every single individual has a story and each one has value and worth.
Well... what do I say? There are so many things I could say. Wait... no, there isn't anything I can say. Wait... actually, I don't know what to say.Start with something you feel passionate about. What are you involved in? What motivates you? Coke or Pepsi?
. . .
If you are anything like me, you've probably felt that cringing fear when somebody asked, "Who are you?" You probably came up with a hundred answers at once, and in the same instant, lost any clue you might have had.
Or maybe you know exactly who you are. In either case, I want to know.
. . .
Who are you?
My name is Emily. I am a college student. I am an introvert, but I love people. I feel very strongly about loving people regardless of their exterior or interior qualities.
Because of this, I decided to conduct an experiment that will investigate the individual's sense of self. I will be analyzing the different responses that volunteers have when asked, "Who are you?" I want to explore how people define themselves. I'm hoping that doing so will allow the volunteers to better conceptualize their own identity.
Also, I'd like to practice talking to strangers.

Hi Emily,
ReplyDeleteI am very excited to read your blog throughout the semester. I often find myself baffled when someone asks me who I am or what I like to do, etc. so I' feel that I can connect with this blog quite a bit, and I hope to find out more about you and even myself.
I love the picture at the bottom! I think it shows so much about us as humans. What we see is nothing compared to what we have inside! This is going to be great!
ReplyDeleteEmily,
ReplyDeleteI really love your topic! I think it is such an interesting question and I am excited to see what you find out about people! I also really like the design of your blog, it looks inviting and even the text is interesting because of the way you used different fonts to your advantage. I am really excited about your blog and I can't wait to come back and read it each week.
This is a very lovely concept. I will love to read more of what you come up with
ReplyDeleteYour blog is a great example of what love really means; accepting people's flaws and still loving them for who they are! Also, very clever title: "who are you?" I cannot wait to read more about it.
