MPU ASSIGNMENT 10
To summarise all sessions of MPU for these 2 months, I know myself better. I am able to identify what type of person I am and see my goal even clearer than before. These really help me to motivate myself as I am studying A level for 2 years. I ensured my career path suits me well with my identity. I realised that there is still hope for me to achieve my dream and to make my family proud, again. Besides that, I accepted my weakness as a challenge for me to improve within these two years or even my whole lifetime. Life is about learning. We always do mistakes as we are not perfect. I trained myself to become a better person and realised that failures teach us to improve ourselves. They won't happen without a reason. So, I would accept failures as they will be always silver lining.

MPU ASSIGNMENT 6
PERSONAL REFLECTION
DESCRIBE
My family and I were strolling down the Oxford Street, the busiest shopping area in Europe with half a million of visitors each day. I was so excited to go to Primark, which is a store located along the street. It is a haven for me as a shop-a-holic guy. Yes, I LOVE shopping more than girls do. But my parents restricted me and my sisters to go to Primark. They suggested to go there when we were on our way back to the hotel. We agreed. After a long cold walk, I saw my sisters were negotiating about something with my mother and they left the store we were particularly in. I asked my mother where did they go and she said they went to Mug Store. But I misheard my mother, I thought she said Primark Store which is nearly the other end of the busy crowded street. I was confused at first but without hesitating, I went straight to the store. There were no clue of my sisters and I got panic. Miracles do happen, I saw my father pacing quite fastly. I was relieved to see him. My father said that my mother was nearly crazy at that time. Then we both went back to the previous store and saw the rest of my family. My mother and my sibling were also relieved to see me in one piece haha. Instead of getting angry, my mother was dropping tears of joy because at a moment she realised that she can't find her boy back as I was lost in the busiest street my family would ever encounter.
INTERPRET
I learned to improve my sense of hearing as I didn't hear what my mother really say. I need to have the initiative to ensure a second confirmation prior to make a choice or judgment. I felt so terrible because I made my mother's biggest fear to become a reality. But in the end, I believe that something happened should have its silver lining. Maybe this major event of my life teaches me to be more sensitive to the surrounding and make logical judgements.
EVALUATE
This lesson is very useful for me as a college student to be more efficient in learning. I should avoid careless mistakes because sometimes a mistake can last for a lifetime. I need to hear commands more precisely and accurately to be a more effective independent learner
PLAN
Regarding to this specific event of my life, I have to be more careful and should avoid of being clumsy. As I wan to be a doctor in the near future, the last thing I should do is careless mistakes, or even not in the list at all. Being a doctor is a very challenging job, that once I do a mistake, it will have a risk on people's life and my career as a specialist.

MPU ASSIGNMENT 5
Today for MPU I did the career test which includes the personality test. The personality test that is included however is more accurate than the previous stand-alone test. For this one I got ISFJ instead of ESFJ. I realise that I am more towards extroversion rather than introversion. This is the result that I got;
Personality Types
Your results with percentage breakdown
Percentage breakdown of your results:
Introverted (I) 54% Extraverted (E) 46%
Sensing (S) 59% Intuitive 41%
Feeling (F) 70% Thinking (T) 30%
Judging (J) 50% Perceiving (P) 50%
ISFJ – Nurturers and Defenders
Career relevant traits:
• Very observant and aware of others reactions and feelings
• In-tune with the surroundings giving an excellent sense of space and function
• Practical, down-to-earth and stable. You do not like to work with abstract thought and theory
• Service oriented, the ISFJ focuses on other’s wants and needs
• Very uncomfortable with confrontation and conflict
• Learn best with hands-on training
You have two basic qualities which define your best career orientation:
a) You are extremely interested and tuned to how other’s are feeling, and
b) You enjoy creating order and structure, and are extremely good at this.
You should choose a career in where you can use your exceptional people observation skills to determine what people want or need, and then use your brilliant organisational abilities to create an environment or plan for creating these wants and needs.
Your awareness of aesthetic quality, combined with your strong sense of space and function also allows you to have special abilities in the practical arts, such as clothes design and interior decorating.
ISFJs are kind and warm-hearted people. You believe the best in people and treat others with kindness and consideration, as you value harmony and co-operation.
An ISFJ is a practical person that learns by doing rather than by reading or applying a theory. For this reason you are not likely to be found in a field which requires a lot of conceptual theory or analysis. An ISFJ enjoys working on something for its practical application and once you know how to perform the task, you will do so faithfully and continually, through to completion. Thus making an ISFJ an extremely dependable person.
Possible Career Paths for the ISFJ:
• Interior Decorators
• Designers
• Gardeners
• Curators
• Medical technologists
• Nurses br /> • Administrators and Managers
• Administrative Assistants
• Librarians
• Child Care and Early Childhood Development
• Social Work / Counsellors
• Paralegals
• Religious Workers or clergy
• Office Managers
• Shopkeepers
• Bookkeepers
• Home Economics(home makers)
I'm so thankful because my ambition matches my personality. Based on the list, medical technologist is included. Unfortunately, no doctor. But to think of it again, I'm not really interested to become a doctor. Maybe because I tend to get so stressed when working with people, in this case people's life. I am more comfortable working silently or in discussions in labs which fulfils my career and personality test. Medical technologist would be my ambition now, maybe. To be specific, biomedical scientist would be great for me. I know there is a term out there using 'biomedical engineer', I hate engineering so I prefer 'scientist' a lot more than 'engineer'. Not that I hate engineers but I hate the mechanical stuffs that they learn and do. I hope biomedical scientist will be far from that.

MPU ASSIGNMENT 4
I agree of what the test says.. I am a visual learner. I need to see dramatisations or diagrams or maybe animations to really understand a specific topic. That's where the internet can be so useful for me as a student as guidance and to further understand besides lecturers.
These are the amazing people who have different learning styles. From left, Jing Vern, Ash and Joyee. Nice meeting you guys! Got to learn those two other two skills which are auditory skill and kinematics skill which I am not really interested as I am a visual learner but would love to have those extra skills!
