Who I Think I Am (Vivian Hung)

Who I Think I am

Hi everyone!

I’m Vivian Hung. I’m from a South America country called Venezuela. And I’m a descendant of Chinese people. As you can guess, I can speak both Spanish and Chinese.

     First of all, regarding to the topic “Who I think I am”, in a simple way I will say I’m ME. I think we are all unique and special. But I will tell you more about who I think I am.

I think I’m a outgoing person. I have a multicultural background. I grow up in Venezuela and I have been to China to study the Chinese language. (I couldn’t speak Chinese before.) I have meet people from different parts of the world and have experienced two different cultures. I’m someone who likes to meet new people, make friends and try and get to know new things. I’m curious about things I don’t know; I like learning. I’m active and always open to new experiences.

I also think I’m caring. I care a lot about people I love, such as my family and friends. I think they are really everything to me because it doesn’t matter what I had gone trough, I am going trough or I will go through, they are the ones who are really always there for me, no matter what. Parents, as we know they will do their best for us. And friends let me give you an example of mine. When I was in China and my parents needed to go back to Venezuela. It was really difficult for me to adapt and being far from my family, but then I realized that my friends have became almost like my family in that long period of time. They shared with me and cared about me. It was so warm and happy to have them. So I really treasure everything relating to my family and friends, such as the relationship, the time I have to share with them, their feelings and so on. There is a quote that I really like from the movie “The Last Song” written by Nicholas Sparks which is “ Sometimes you have to be apart from people you love, but that doesn’t mean you love them any less. Sometimes, it even makes you love them more.” I have experienced that feeling so I treasure a lot people I love.

I’m someone who have learned to be resilient. Life is not that difficult but also not that easy. We face obstacles and we sometimes feel helpless and hopeless. But I really found out that we need to take a good attitude, be optimist and keep going whenever we feel in that way. Do our best. We tend to see the obstacle which is in front of us much bigger than it is. But after we defeated it, we realized it wasn’t as terrifying as we used to think of or see it.

And for the last, I will tell you things that I like and like doing. I love outside activities. I like playing badminton, volleyball and basketball. I love the beach, it is the place that I love the most going to. In fact, I go with my friends to the beach every time we can.

I’m happy to be in Baruch, this will be another new experience for me. I think I’m someone who enjoys her life with what it brings.
