2.2 Genetic limits
This is when a scientist takes the embro out of my mother's uterus and triples my cell division, so that according to the Hayflick limit, when I become a fetus, my lifespan will be longer. -
4.4 childhood attachment experiences
I cannot really think of an exact times of experiences that could contributed to my attachment styles but I do not remember my parents ever being in the same room together. I was always being passed on back and forth between my mother and father. At times I am with my dad for weeks and weeks without my mom and vice versa during the summer. I developed that attachment style of not getting too attached to people because visits are short and I am used to it. I am used to being by myself. -

7.3 Major Life event
This was the day when I discovered my brother's death. I was in shock, and I could not believe that my 20 year old brother was dead. My mother found him dead in his bedroom and she has not been the same since then. I had an abundance of social coping support from my friends and family, if it wasnt for them, I would not be able to cope with the stress that was put upon me by my mother. I believe I used the meotion-focused coping mechanism, I distanced myself from the problem by going to school. -
4.1 Young adult transition
This is when I moved out of my parents house to go to college. Yes, I moved into the dorms when I was a freshman but I was still very dependent on my parents, I still did not obtain the responsibilites of a young adult should. I decided to pick on the day I moved into my first apartment my sophomore year. I learned how to cook, clean the entire apartment, owned my first pet on my own, had my first car and made my own bill payments. -
6.3 Identity
I watched one of the classmates life history videos and she mentioned that he did not get in any serious trouble or even engaged in a dating lifestyle because all he did was work. He clearly set up an ideology of himself as a working man and he set his personal values in accordance of his occupational identity. She failed to mention how old he was, but I can sense that he had just gotten out of high school and went straight to work to earn money to support himself. -
7.2 Transistions
I left college and moved away from California, my homestate and Washington DC, where I lived in my college years to obtain a job in Massachusetts. I expereinced a transistion from the typical college lifestyle, while still lingering onto my parent's guidance and money to settling down in an apartment and working a full time job that gave me checks biweekly and paid for 5 new bills for my apartment. -
1.1 beginning
I consider this day I turned to be an adult because it is when I first experienced my normative age-graded influence. I had started my first full-time job and I moved on my own to my first apartment. On this day, my boss had announced, 'Employee A has been terminated from Walden School, he is no longer with us.' I started to realize that I have obtained responsibilities to make sure I show up to work on time and do my duties with 100% effort. If I dont, my bills dont get paid. -
2.3 my current healthy lifestyle
Ive answered NO for two things, exercise for more than 150 mins a week and avoid drinking alcohol. Sunscreen isnt a concern now because its cold outside and I do not really go outside much. I know I should exercise more and I try to do that by taking the stairs only in my dorm, and I live on the 7th floor. -
4.3 adult attachment style
I scored 3.23 from 1-7 attachment anxiety score and
4.14 1-7 attachment avoidance score, it means my anxiety and avoidance is in the lower spectrum of both attachment types. I am not worried about being alone, I am just worried of losing the person I love. Not because I could possibly push the person away but if my partner dies unexpectedly, that is my biggest fear. Although, with people in general as in friendships, I do get uncomfortable getting too close because I can only trust myself. -
7.1- Fowler
I believe I am at the individuative-reflective faith stage; I am now a college student and I shifted from being under my parent's authority to live on my own, live in an apartment, cook my own food and develop a sense of individuality. I will prove everyone wrong by graduating from college and learn from the mistakes I have made in the past. -

6.1 My RIASEC type
My RIASEC type is ISA (Investigative, Social and Artistic) My career goal is to help people- specifically children. All the lists of occupations that ISA offers were psychologists, mental health counselors, clinical psychologist, etc. I definitely want to help out with people, my personality trait fits the social aspect whereas I do want to minimize other people's problems by investigating their situations. I was amazed of the results because I do want to pursue those kinds of careers. -

2.4 potential consquences of my lifestyle
I believe by the time I turn 50 on this day, I will have good skin because I do not go out in the sun often, but I have a feeling that I will be overweight because I do not exercise and I do not avoid foods that potentially give me chest pains/heart burns. I take medicine often to relieve the pain I get from certain food. -
3.2 attention
My attention to details will decline as I reach to this age. I will need assistance to make sure I have taken my medication in the proper dosage at the proper time. The use of medication dispenser will help me with my attention to detail and to make sure that i do not make a mistake. -
3.1 working memory
This is when my working memory will decline. My mental energy and attentional resources will not work as well as younger people do. I will not be able to use strategies that will require working-memory tasks. I will have difficulties of remembering a list of groceries at a grocery store without looking at the list itself. -
4.2 Older adult role transition
This was not mentioned in the textbook because I do not believe in marriages and I do not plan to have children in my life. I thought of when I will be retiring, I know it will be a huge transition in my life knowing I cannot work anymore and that I will start to reflect on my entire life what I have done. I would have settled into my retirement home and live off of my retirement settlement.
