My Name

My name means wealth and grace. It means that someone needs me. It means that I did something wrong. It means joy and love when it's called so effortlessly. It's poetic from the first syllable to the last thanks to Shakespeare. My name doesn't really come from anywhere, it's just for me.

I've never really though of how people are portrayed by their name, but my name suites me perfectly. My real name is Jessica but no one really ever calls me that because it's too formal to me, so I go by Jessie. The name Jessie fits perfectly for me. It's short and simple (just like me ;). It's tough yet sweet at the same time. It's just the right name for me.

My last name means "The Life Path". I hope that names do affect one's life, because if you put my name together it means "A path of wealth and grace to life". I wouldn't mind that happening.

Teacher? I'm a-freud not ;)

I've always loved helping people with whatever they need, no matter what the case. You may find it surprising, but I'm quite good at it. I guess if I had to work at my schools' district, I'd be the psychologist.

I find peoples' behavior very interesting, because there's so many different ways to react to anything that happens in your life. In my head, I compare what I would do, but everyone's different. I'd like to be psychologist because it feels good to help people in any way possible. From my perspective, I'm well suited for this job since I'm just an understandable person. The only problem I'd have with this job is feeling nervous or bad for not helping someone by saying something wrong, and things along that line. But, it's really cool to get to know people more than you think, so I'd like that job.

In class the other day, we took a personality test that showed us who we are as a person. There were many categories, but I exceeded in 4 of them:

Musical - Music personally helps me express thoughts or feelings, so I could recommend to kids to do the same

Intrapersonal - If someone is telling a certain thing that is bothering them or basically anything at all, I could show them sympathy to help them learn and relate.

Verbal Linguistic - It would be good to know what to say in a bad situation. I'm also a very good listener and I'm careful with words.

Interpersonal - This is a great trait to have for being a psychologist, because you have to be oriented and learn cooperatively with the people you're helping.
