  • Event 2.2- Genetic Limits

    Based on telemores, I think the best thing to prevent people have shorter lifetime is making sure they have healthy lifestyle. There will be a tracking device in humans above age 14, and it will trigger to tickle you when you don't exercise that day, until you do, it will stop tickling you. With the humans aging, and to reduce chronic stressors, or maintaing healthy lifestyle, I think this device will help humans to remember to exercise that day.
  • Event 1.1 (When Did I become an Adult?)

    This is the day of my birrthday and the day I turned 18, which is a part of biological clock. I definitely think I became adult this day because I felt that I was ready to take more responsibilites, and because everybody in my life let me be one. I experienced normative life experience, such as buying lottery tickets, being able to register to vote, and almost graduating high school. So, this date is appropriate according to the age I was becoming, and because the other adults treated me as one.
  • 7.2 Transitions

    The book mentioned about the death of a child or a parent, and I did not experience any of these two, but I experienced the death of my grandtaher. His body was failing and he had an illiness. I went ahead and visit him and grandma that weekend. I did not realize that he would die when I was in the room, in the middle of the day. I view death differently since that happened, and there are some days where I just sit and think about that day. I was just 18 and going to leave home to college.
  • 7.3- Major Life Event

    One of the major life event was change in living conditions. In August, I moved into a house with 7 roommates, and that experience has impacted me with my stress level. It is overwhelming having 7 roomies because not all of them know how to clean, or not to take other people's food. I cope this with reminding them to clean after themselves, and label my food so people don't touch it. My coping was uneffective because house is still messy everyday, and that stresses me still.
  • Event 2.3- My current healthy lifestyle

    My lifestyle is a bit both healthy and not healthy. First of all, I do not smoke. So, that's good! I try to exercise three to five times per week, but sometimes school and work get in the way. I eat fruit and vegetables daily, and I also feel like I could do better. I could change my diet as eating healthier, and not eat microwave food. I think im healthy as of taking care of myself in mentally, physically, and spiritually! I feel healthy, but always have room for improvement.
  • 4.1 Young Adult Role Transition

    I am expericing the gender roles in early partnerships where I find things with my boyfriend in roles. He is the one who is the expert at cooking, while traditional roles would expect that woman does the cooking. We both live together with other roommates, but we are thinking about moving in together soon. The challenges would be figuring out what our roles would be. Since, he will probably cook most of time, and I like to do the cleaning. We will learn new things about eachother.
  • 4.3 Adult Attachment Style

    My relationships with my partner, family, friends seem really secure. None of them go to the direction of high anxiety, or low anxiety. I feel that it is more suitable for me. I feel secured and very close to them. I feel I can tell them anything and go to them anytime. I am more attached to them than they are attached to me, I think! I have an intimate relationship with my boyfriend. My friends and family are close to me. I don't rely a lot on my parents, but they are there for me anytime.
  • 4.4 Childhood Attachment Experiences

    I was always attached to my mom and my twin sister. I liked going to places with my twin sister all the time. I could not live without her, until this day where I learned that sometimes I have to do things by myself without her. For example, group activities, and especially at public school, where I feel left out sometimes. This made me have the need to have secure relationships where I feel like we both are in control of our relationship and that makes me who I am today.
  • 7.1 Fowler

    The stage of synthetic-conventional faith, because that's the kind of faith that I have. I grew up believing in God, and went to church. I don't go to church every sunday anymore, but I still know that God is still there and watches over me. I still pray to him, and know that he forgives for all of my sins and loves me no matter what. When I get married and have family, that is when things will change. I will have to decide if I want to take my kids to church or just teach them about God myself.
  • 6.4 generativity

    One person explained about her grandfather who is religion and works at the farm. He does not believe in tv, pictures, or any media. He does show generativity by attending his church, doing work for the farm and connects with other people for marketing. He does not become self-absorbed but in a different way, he connects with people who share the same religion. He takes care of his animals and family, and believes family comes first. This shows the trait of generativity.
  • 6.2 Super's Stages

    I will be already graduated from graduate rogram at GU, and I will be 25 years old. This area I feel that I will be experiencing is exploration as what I want to be interested to get a job that fits my choice and find stabilize in the job. Stabilizing in the career of my job won't be only thing I will be expericing, I probably would be having a family and life too. My roles will vary in that period of time. My role salience will be with my job, family, community, and home.
  • 6.3 Intimacy

    I have seen other interviews that they did, I saw one person who emphasized on intimacy with family. Sitting down for dinner at the table is very important for her, and it is to have time for other family members and talk about their day. I agree that it is important to have dinner at the table, at least one meal a day. When I have a family, this is going to be important for me to make sure we are intimate with each other and show affectionate. This date is picked because I possible have kids.
  • 6.1 My RIASEC type

    I picked this date because i should be finished with my graduate program, and I will be 27 years old. I do strongly believe that this test's results matches my personality as a social person. I love helping others. I am not interested in enterprising, and I am not sure about conventional. None of the jobs show up that I feel interested in. I want to help people, and interact with them in a different way. I don;t want to be waiteress, or attendants for any job. I am looking for something else.
  • Event 2.1: Oxidative Damage

    This is when I will be 35, because I think it is at the point of age where we will start aging. To prevent the oxidative damage, I think we need to build underground tunnels in the area of where air pollution, and sun is strong at. Underground tunnels are to prevent aging from the sunlight and air pollution, which the adults over 35 will use the tunnels to get to places. People age under 35, don't have to use the tunnels until they are 35, so they have less risk of chemical reaction at the time.
  • 4.2 Older Adult Role Transition

    I think by that time, I will be experiencing having to taking care of my parents because by that time they will be in their late 60's. My family has had genes of alzheimers, and especially on my mom's side. If my mom gets that, then the challenge would be taking care of her, and helping my dad about the situation. I would hope that I will have a good financial so I can help my parent's with their health care, as they do with my grandparents. This transition would be taking care of my parents.
  • Event 2.4- Potential consequences of my lifestyle

    My lifestyle is not really in risk, but I have to keep up exercising multiple times per week, and make sure my lifestyle is good. I could have risk of socioeconomics, because what if I don't earn enough and I have to eat cheap foods and they are not healthy. That would be risk of obesity, or gaining fat from cheap food. I am white, and that means I will get help easily than others who have a race that is not white. I also genetics of family who have alzheimers, so that could be a risk for me.

  • 3.2 Working Memory

    I will be around 77, I believe and I think my working memory will be decling at this age due to midlife crisis, being old. With the IADL, I will decline ability of taking mediciations, using transportations, and cooking my own meals. I wont be able to remember a lot of things and doing mutitasking stuff. Text says up to age of 44, 1 in 10 adults report having disability, so I can imagine I will have some kind of physical disability other than deaf. My working memory will be declined at that age.
  • 3.1 Decision Making

    Between when I am 80 to 85 is when I think I will start decling my decision making abiltiies. Due to aging because my quality of judgements and decisions will be different and my choices would probably be different due to being old. Now, with the IADL's I think I would be having hard time with shopping for personal items, preapring my own meals, and handling finances. Probably taking medications too, I would need assistance. This age will make me decline those abilities due to old age in the 80.
