Prologue

My name is Michelle Xiong. This is an assignment on a personal writing portfolio. This assignment was given to us to get to know more about ourselves and other people in our class. I find it hard to express myself freely since I feel uncomfortable telling people about myself so for the most part of this assignment, it might seem boring. Although I will try to keep it entertaining.

My goal for this assignment is to let you know a little bit about myself and things that you may not know about me or already know about me. I like to keep things in a simple and straight to the point which is the reason why I might not be so great in English compare to other subjects because I can’t find a way to express myself in an extended paragraph rather than a simple sentence. But I know English is required because it’s one of the fundamental qualities employers looks for in a person to see whether or not this person has basic knowledge and be able to communicate with others well and not cause any kind of problems. Also because it is one of the first thing employers see before the person comes in for the job to interview for the position.

Well to start things off I’m a senior planning on getting a bachelor degree in dentistry. I have two favorite subjects as of the moment and that’s anything that involves Science and Art but I would have to say I have a hard time adjusting to classes that requires me to interact with other people but at the same time it is fun talking to people and actually getting to know things about them that I never knew. My life involves avoiding interaction with other people, going to school, and staying home. I hope I pass the ADA also known as the America Dental Association and get my certification into the dental hygiene aspect of the dentistry. I have started to get use to talking to people and being more open about myself since the job I want requires me to have some skills at being able to talk to patient and making them feel comfortable during their checkups and appointments. I would hope that along the way, I’ll have people who would support me and have connections with during my time in college. I do value the idea of friendship once I get use to opening up about myself. But in the meantime I am still in high school, one month away from graduating and finally focus and getting myself ready for college life. I would rent an apartment in Springfield and start on what I need for my classes once it starts in the fall. I will have my sister next to me during my college years so I would have at least someone there that would help me.

But that’s about it about myself and I am currently doing scholarships and other things to help myself achieve that goal.
