This is an introduction to myself for Career Ed

1. Who Am I?

2. Hello! My name is Alex
Zhou, and I am going to
tell you all about me!

3. First, I would like to introduce my personality
I have many areas of interests and strengths that are built upon it. I also have
many weaknesses that I wish to overcome.
Starting off with my interests and strengths, I love subjects that are built upon
logic, such as math, science, programming, (pretty much all the stem subjects)
The results for the Career
Clusters Activity fits this part
of me amazingly well!

4. I also absolutely love art and music; both play a huge role in my life and I can't
imagine what it would be like without them.
Artistically, I love to paint, draw and dwell upon different
designs for various ideas I have. I also enjoy media
designing as I produce animation and compose cover arts
for YouTube videos I post.
Personality continued…

5. This brings over to Music, the YouTube
channel that I am currently working on is
a collaboration between my friend and
me. We currently post hip/hop, rap
instrumentals and are hoping to expand
our genre to push our content to a wider
range of an audience.
I find visualizing very easy, as I can render a
mental image of a concept usually right off the
bat when it is first presented to me.
Personality continued…

6. I asked some of my friends to list out some words that
describes me… and here they are!
Intelligent
Creative
Patient
Funny Stubborn
Annoying

7. Here are some pictures of my friends and I!
Waikiki, Honolulu Haleiwa, HonoluluCoquitlam, BC

8. I also thought the results from the personality quiz was very
interesting!

9. I tend to be more extraverted, but I can
be introverted at times.
I see myself as both an imaginative
person and a realist at the same time.
When it comes to social interaction, I use
my feelings more.
I usually have a plan of what I need to do, but
along the way I find myself improvising a lot.
I do indeed put myself under a lot of pressure
when a due date is coming up.

10. Ever since a child, I’ve dreamed of becoming an
architect. It combines some of my strengths and
interests such as art and math. I’ve always been
extremely intrigued by the drawings of buildings
and their architectural styles; which is another thing
that catches my attention. I take interest in
exploring different cultures, thus naturally, I enjoy
looking into the unique architecture and building
techniques and procedures apparent in each culture.
One day in the future, I hope to express my
personality and interests through an architectural
style that would be uniquely “me”.
Career Interest

11. For games, I love to play the type that allows you to really express your creativity.
Leisure Activities: Gaming
Simple game that
generates a blocky
world with limitless
possibilities
Minecraft Cities: Skylines Sid Meier’s Civilization 5
A city building game
that simulates how a
real city would run with
amazing depth
A strategic, chess like game
where one spawns as a
primitive settlement and
strives for world domination

12. Leisure Activities: Music
Music composition combines two of my favorite things to do, music, and being
creative!
I use a program called FL Studios, a music composition,
arranging, and audio processing software that is used by
many professional producers and composers.
I have been composing music since I was in 7th grade, and it has been a part of
me ever since.
Nowadays, I collaborate with a friend when producing music, and we post our
products on to a music channel on YouTube.

13. Leisure Activities: Art
To express my interest in art, I spend time drawing, sketching and graphic
designing. I also used to paint but since it can cause a bit of a mess and the
materials are more expensive to acquire, I haven’t painted in years.

14. Leisure Activities: Sports
I consider myself to be a rather active person. Before COVID-19, I used to go to the
gym in my apartment everyday to exercise, but now to ensure social distancing, I’ve
resorted to exercising everyday indoors, following home workout YouTube videos
I also play badminton and
have been since grade 7.
Although I’m not the best at
it, I still have lot of fun
playing competitively with
friends.

15. Music Taste
If it’s music, I’ll listen to it! I listen to every genre of music and enjoy all of them!
However, I do have favorites and I listen to these genres the most:
Hip Hop/ Rap RnB Jazz
Loving the rhythmic
complexity of it!
Really enjoy the chill,
peaceful vibes.
I love me a good Frank
Sinatra song any day!

16. When it comes to clothes, I tend to go
with a more formal and simplistic
appeal. I like to wear dark colored
hoodies and sweaters accompanied by
black/ dark grey jeans. Overall, I rely a
lot on the grey scale when picking
clothes, making me look a bit grim. One
of my goals in the future is to find more
of my colors when it comes to matching
clothes.
Clothing Preference

17. Yum! Food! I enjoy many foods from various cultures in the world…
I particularly enjoy a nice
middle eastern donair filled
with vegetables, meat, and
sauce; it has a special flavor
to it that is captivating.
Another dish I am extremely fond of
are the Wuhan Hot Dry Noodles
along with a ice cold can of coca cola.
I could eat this dish for an eternity! I
can remember every aspect about its
unique texture and savory taste. Its
an absolute wonder of a food.
I feel a tiny bit guilty about this
one, but for some reason, the
Ikea “daim” cake to me is filled
with a special taste. I know that
this one sounds very strange
and specific, but its unique
taste amongst other cake I've
had simply stands out to me
very much.
