My First Vision Board

My goal for my education is to hopefully enroll into University of British Colombia, hence why I have a picture of the school compass. I put a picture of a microscope because I have an interest in the sciences, especially biology. I strive to become a nurse or someone in the medical field in the future. I always try my best in classes and assignments, so I put an affirmation saying “Working hard for good results” to encourage myself to keep my work ethic for satisfactory results.

I am half Japanese and half Chinese and that is something I really take pride in. I wish to keep my heritage and culture going by learning my mother tongues. I speak a bit of Mandarin and I am currently taking Japanese as an elective. To represent a part of my culture I put a picture of Chinese writing.

The arts are also something I’ve always held close to my heart. I’ve always had an artistic interest, so I draw in my free time and occasionally paint. I used a photo of a messy paint pallet because I do get quite messy when I’m having fun. I used to learn piano when I was younger but unfortunately have lost that talent, but I hope to regain it by taking new lessons.

I have scoliosis, which makes my spine curve peculiar. This causes me to be more prone to more damage if I were to get into an accident. To counteract this, my doctors recommend I get more active. I’ve always loved swimming since the moment I was able to, so I occasionally go swimming to strengthen my health. I also have a dog that I take on walks daily. The photo of the cat and dog in my vision board is not mine because I know in the future my current pets may not still be with me, but I hope I do have the privilege of having more loving animals in my future.

I don’t only have furry friends but also human friends. I have a small close knit friend group that I have great times with. I put three photos, two of people hanging out and the other of people at grad. I look forward to graduation so I can learn what great accomplishments lay ahead of me. I didn’t put a picture of my family but instead to represent them I put a photo of taking a picture of scenery and the other of New York city because my family loves to travel. I also love big cities and hope to one day live in one.

Reflection 1 – My Goals for This Year

Family and friends:

Goal #1: My goal is to make minimum of ten friends this year so I can have at least one friend to talk to in each class.

Goal #2: I plan on keeping in touch with not only my new friends but with my old friends from middle school because I don’t need to conserve my friendship to people only in my school.

Goal#3: I would also like to get closer to my cousins so I can get to know them better when we have family get togethers. I have an older cousin in my school but I have yet to say hello him but I will when I see him.

Education:

Goal #1: My goal is to finish all my school work when they are due or even before so I don’t need to stress at the last minute.

Goal #2: I will also try to finish all my homework before dinner so in case I need extra time I can do it after dinner and not have to stay up too late.

Goal #3: I hope to have a successful first year of high school so the next three more years will be too.

Health:

Goal #1: My goal is to walk 10,000 steps each day because I am not in any extra curricular sports so I need more exercise.

Goal #2: I plan on walking up the hill home everyday. This will help me with the previous goal on 10,000 steps.

Goal #3: I will try to do my physiotherapy exercises everyday so my scoliosis doesn’t progress.
