Phase I: Who Am I? What's My Place?

I am outgoing, and have no "strangers." I play tennis and am an older sister and daughter. I am a loyal friend and surround myself with wonderful friends that i care about.
 * What __really__ makes up your identi?

Being able to fully be yourself with no judgements, no matter what the people around you will love you for you.
 * What __really__ makes up your sense of place?

I am a leader and am not afraid to speak my mind.
 * What roles do your identity and sense of place play when you work with others in a group project?


 * What are the qualities that you bring to the GLIP conversation that will help you make a contribution to your global group?
 * Youth Group projects at church, sending care packages to a family friend fight in Afganistan, Global Village Mission.

Homelessness, these people should be given the equal right to food, clothes, education, and homes just like the rest of us. People should take them to shelters and provide them with food instead of just giving them money.
 * What is one local problem (where you live) that you believe needs to be addressed? Suggest some steps could you take to try to solve it?

War, I think a strong group of influental leaders need to step up and solve this problem. Obama has been working at it and so far so good.
 * Finally, some problems have been around for a long time. What qualities do you think a person must have to step up and try to solve them?

Phase II: Sense of Place





What are your initial thoughts about how your image addresses the questions above? Later, you will be working with the members of your group to create a travel package that includes visits to each group member's home location (see Phase II)

The two pictures I inserted above should give you a good feel of my sense of place. When I am doing something I enjoy and am around friends and family, I feel the most at home no matter where I am. I feel like I can totally be myself at my school and tennis club. When I am on the court I feel the most at peace, I drop all outside worries and only focus on the game. I go to school for eight hours everyday, the best part of school is while I am recieving a great education, I am able to interact with my friends around me. My final sense of place is North Hills Shopping center, this is where everyone goes to shop, eat, go to movies, or just hang out. I spend most of my weekends there with family and friends.
