Communication
Communication
is no doubt one of my stronger points. I like expressing
opinions and debating. I definitely hate the concept of
sitting on the fence.
Negotiation
I think
that I am pretty good at negotiating. I have a way with
words which allows the other person to feel like they are
not losing out in the deal.
Numerical
I am good at
maths, don’t enjoy it all that much, but because I am good
at it I find the classes really easy.
Technological
I am
pretty good at the basics with computers, otherwise not all
that interested.
Social
Socially I
think that I am pretty good fun. I am always invited out, I
think because I make things interesting, but I love the
company of others.
Physical
I am fit
and in good shape, but I don’t stress about working out or
dieting.
Creative
I consider
myself pretty creative. You have to be to get into the line
of work that I want to. I draw inspiration from all kinds of
different places.
Leadership
I don’t
like being a sheep so I think that I kind of thrive in the
leadership position.
Practical
I love hands
on stuff, that’s the best thing about fashion… you have an
empty canvas and then so many different things that you can
do to it to create a masterpiece.
Home duties
I hate
cleaning, but I have to do my fair share around the house.
It’s heaps annoying though when my stepsisters leave because
at 12 and 8 years old they always leave a mess and I am
expected to clean up.
I am pretty good at anything
artistic.
I consider myself a mean netball player and dancer.
I am
pretty good at offering advice to anyone who needs it and I am a
good listener as well, despite the fact that I like talking as well.
Casual work:
I work in retail, Stocks clothing. I love my job because I get
discounts on the kinds of clothes that I love wearing. It is also
pretty easy and gives me at least some fashion experience.
Work Experience: I spent one weeks work experience at a
pre-school which made me think that if in the case that things don’t
go to plan, then I can do that. I also did a week in Sydney with a
big label there. I found that invaluable and the people were the
type that I would love to work with in the future.
