2.2- Genetic Limits
Mutation could happen after birth due to the exposure to toxins, free radicals and radiations that could cause gene to change. The less of hazards to interfere with life expectancy would result in slowing down the aging process. If I was a mad science- Remove hazards. Telomeres: Every time cell divides a little more of telomere is cut off. So if there is none of this junk DNA left and the more cutting off could happen and it will damage the chromosomes and genes so cell dies. -Remove the cutting -
2.1 Oxidative Damage
Oxidative stress increased in free radicals and can damage deoxyribonucleic acid and mitochondria due to excess energy stores. It would cause/increase many hard cure complications like example, diabetes. As reactive oxygen species are generated mainly as by products from mitochondrial respiration, mitochondria are primary target of oxidative damage and play an important role in aging.If I was a mad scientist I would remove ROS and it will help with aging slowly and hope to reduce the O stress. -
4.4 Childhood Attachment Experiences. (I picked my birth date because since day one, my mom's unconditional love for me has never changed)
"Someone will accept and love you the way you do for yourself" my mom always tell me. My mom believe that loving yourself is very important because if you can love yourself then you will not need or become dependent on others. I learned to accept myself so I don't worry about anyone else's opinion of me. My mom is caring and loving. I get that from her, growing up it always feel good to have someone shows me that they love me. my mom did that for me so I like giving other people my affection. -
7.2 Transitions.
The death of my aunt had me afraid of the transition from young adult to adult. My aunt died from cancer; the cancer she had is beatable by 90% so I did not understand why cancer beats her. Her death got me afraid of going to doctor appts because I don't want doctor to find anything wrong with me. Few months I have finally accepted after hearing stories about cancer. I remember it very well, I remember how afraid I was. I still do get scare sometime but I have learned that it is part of life. -
4.1 Young Adult Role Transition
The physical changes of the transition from childhood to young adult I have experienced are transformative. My body is changing and taking on secondary sex characteristics as puberty happened. Another than the physical changes, I have moved out of the house to Washington DC for college and during summer I started to paying the rent to be at home and that is youth adult's role, it is my role now, paying to have a roof above my head. My body changed most during my 8th grade and freshman at college -
“7.1 Fowler.” I picked the date because when I come to gallaudet and I learned how to love myself and not care what others think. Those three years are the years that I grow the most.
My stages of faith would be individuate-reflective faith. The example that fowler gave in textbook described me perfectly and how I grow over years. My thinking has changed a lot due to the people I have met. Several of them gained and/ or take my confident away. Over years I have learned to not be afraid to do things because of what others would think of me. I feel more powerful and independent woman over years. I am still learning to love myself and plan to continue that as I become older. -
7.3 Major Life Event
Begin or end school/college: My boyfriend graduated from college last december while I am still in school for another year and half. His graduation had changed things. Probably not the biggest but things changed. I don't get to see him often anymore, working on our long distance. We also become more serious talking about our future. My daily routines had changed without having him around, I build more friendship. I spend more times doing thing on my own and I learn to love having time to myself -
2.3- My current healthy lifestyle
I answer question with more N than Y and that clearly shows that my lifestyle needs to improve. I need to eat more vegetable and fruits. I am struggling to have a healthy lifestyle due to living on campus. I am stuck with choice of cafeteria or ratherskellar. Only healthy foods they provide are salad. And the options to put in salad are really small. It is really hard to have a healthy lifestyle especially during college years when there are alcohol involves.I hope to aim for better lifestyle. -
2.4- Potential consequences of my lifestyle
I don't watch what I eat and I am not getting regularly exercise every week= Obesity. Probably one of my biggest fear but I kept telling myself that will improve after college year. I drink alcohol every weekend because there is always a party somewhere in college and this could cause liver failure or different kind of disease- cancer. Being obesity could cause other disease to appeared like cardiovascular disease and diabetes. I half and half have sedentary lifestyle and I want to change that. -
4.3 Adult Attachment Style
I'd say I am in somewhat between secure and preoccupied. I am very clingy when it comes to someone I love, I like to spend every of my free time with people I love. I open up very easy and I would share a lot about my feelings BUT that will happen when I once feel comfortable with the person. My mom taught me to love myself first before anyone so I don't worry often about not being well-liked. I learned to accept for who I am and I know there are people out there who would do the same thing. -
1.1 The Beginning
I believe that it depends based on varies opinions and psychological age. It's about how every person feel, how old they became really mature, and etc. But as for me, I believe that age 25 is when I turned into an adult. People said I turned adult at age eighteen but I don't feel that way because I don't feel responsible for many other things. I am still in college and I have not given any thoughts about my future. I feel that at age 25 is a time when we should take life seriously. -
6.2 Super’s Stages
Establishment:I will be 26 years old and start looking for a job and hope to start to have a stability life. At age 26 I expect myself to try find a job and place to live.Not just anywhere because that also depended on my kids. If I happened to have deaf children, I'd like to send them to deaf school so that also make an impact on where to find job and state to live in. At 26 I believe that I will start trying to establish my goal and life. at 26, I will be looking a job related to social work. -
6.1 My RIASEC type. I picked year 2022 because I will graduate with BA degree in year of 2018 and I hope to take one year off and come back for MA degree. So by 2022 I should start looking for a job.
I scored highest in Social and lowest in artistic. My top three high score would be social, enterprising and investigative. Reading in textbook about those three, they all fit me VERY well. I have taken similar test as this before and the result tend to be same. I decided that I want to be majoring in social work because I want to WORK with people, helping them not TEACH or EVALUATE them. After working as camp counselor, I realized that it is something I want to do for a living- helping others. -
4.2- Older Adult Role Transition.
I want to and will get married and that is a big role in being a wife. Also I want to have a family with my husband. Being a mom is a big role. But as through pregnancy is a transition change for my body. I expect to experience the role and transition change within 5-7 years. I expected that after birth, I would be insecure about my body because giving birth will change my body and that would be a challenge for me to be comfortable with my body. -
6.4- Agreeableness
I will be thirty years old by year 2026 and I picked this age because I believe at that age I would have enough experience and become more flexible with others. Through co-workers, roommates, bosses, and etc would taught me to learn how to agree / work with others. I believe that age 30 Kylene would be more willingness with accepting things even thought if I don't agree with it. Based on my experience of seeing people grow over years and I believe age thirty is perfect age for this stage. -
3.1 Problem Solving
Solving problem take up a lot of thinking so you need to have skill of thinking to be able to solve the problems. When you lack of thinking skills then it won't work. So it isn't based on aging, it based on individual. If a person is really skilled at decision-making it would be based on their thinking. Thinking includes open minded and can view other person's point-view. I believe at age 50 is when you won't be good at it because society changes everyday and you will need to keep up"Old school" -
6.3- Ego integrity vs Ego despair
44 years from now is a day when I will experience one of Erikson's theory. I will be 65 at that time. I will look back my life and I will either have satisfied feelings or wishing I did more. My grandpa started traveling at 70 years old because he has never been out of US. He looked back and wished he traveled and my cousin gave him an opportunity. He grabbed it because he don't want to have any regret before he die. He made an important decision at age 70 based on his looking back on his life. -
3.1 Working Memory
There are two different types, semantic memory and episodic memory. The difference in ADL would be not able to work or have some kind of commitment like picking grandchildren or friends up. The book said mostly at age 70 is when their memory starts to declining slowly. Age range from 70 to 80's so I picked 75 years old because I have a grandpa who is 73 years old and he did bungee jump in New Zealand recently like a year ago. He is functioning just fine and he is able to tell many family stories -
8.1 The End
Kylene Etkie aka the girl who finds positive in every situation, always bring the good vibe, and her smile is very contagious. She is well-loved at TSD. Her last name ETKIE will be forever recognition& carry the legacy because her grandchildren is fifth generation of being a student at TSD. I want to share her favorite quote that got her though most of though times "Smile, you are stronger than this." Kylene Etkie, you will be sorely missed. May you rest in peace in heaven along with your pets.
