PROCESS

Team 3: Personal Profile - Robyn


Athletic and fit.

 
I think I am confident and friendly.



A big diverse group of friends


Sports Captain.



I donate to charity things at school and help the Student Representative Council (SRC) with its fund raising activities. Other than that I don’t do too much.



I am on the SRC and am a Sports House Captain.



Money? Money hasn’t really been a huge problem to Mum. She owns her own business and is fairly successful. We travel overseas every couple of years. I know that you have to be careful with your money- Mum invests fairly shrewdly.
Possessions? I pretty much get what I need, but not always the things I want. Mum is very focussed on getting me a good education so she says “things” are not essential. Not that I go without anything. I’m pretty lucky really.
Religion? We don’t really get fully into the church type religion. But we are Catholic and go to Christmas and Easter and all that.
Marriage? I’m a bit negative on the idea. I don’t know that I’d be able to trust anyone enough to get married. I might change my mind when I get older.
Politics? Not really into politics.



I would like to think I’m the sort of person my Mum would be proud of. She is really tolerant and understanding and I think I have got that from her.




In an ideal world what would be your 5 year plan?
I would have completed my Degree and know exactly what I am going to do. I would have a good job and be earning ok money.


What things are standing in the way of achieving this?
I am uncertain what I want to do. I need to get clear about that.


What might be some of the solutions?
I need to talk to the Careers Adviser and maybe do a couple of Work Placements to find out about different occupations.

How will you support yourself if you decide on further training after school?
I would like to be able to stay at home and go to Uni. For extra money I would have my part time job.



Mum has brought me up by herself. My father took off when I was a baby. I don’t ever see him. I don’t even know what he does for a living. Mum has taught me to be a decent, caring person . She could be bitter and angry but she isn’t. She always tells me “it takes two to make a relationship work and it takes two to help it fall apart”.

What is important as far as values go?
Honesty is really important to me. I can’t handle it if people are dishonest. I also think it is important to value family and friends.
