How has social comparison influenced your self-concept? 

# data[].attributes.body
I would say my self concept is pretty distorted. I don't see myself truly and I am not sure who I really am. We are constantly getting compared to others and it really takes a toll on you. I am constantly wanting to change myself and "be better" when in reality I am doing a pretty good job overall. It is hard to be yourself when you are getting told you aren't good enough. I have slowly gotten rid of social media for reasons like these. I am also finding who I am again and not conforming to society. It is definitely hard to keep your head clear these days.

I am a fun and caring girl who loves the outdoors. I enjoy being with animals or going on adventures. I also don't mind a relaxing night in every now and then. I am currently going to college for construction management while working 2 part time jobs. I am pretty skilled in art or making things by hand. I also take pride in all my work. People tend to notice my smile and eyebrows at a glance. They then get to know my unique personality.  I love the genre of horror, including movies and books. I also love to watch That 70s show. I listen to many kinds of music but mainly country, oldies, and reggae rock. I love food but mainly healthier options. I couldn't live without music, art, cows, my water bottle, chapstick, and tie dye. In my free time I like to think about my life and what my future might be like. I am also always trying to work on myself to be the best person I can. I spend my Fridays or weekends outside taking walks or hikes, hanging with friends, or even playing some video games. A secret of mine is I am a libra. I am looking for someone who has similar interest or likes. Also someone funny, outgoing, caring, and loyal. You should message me if we have a lot in common!

What reference groups are important to you?

# data[].attributes.body
Nothing much is important to me these days. The only people who matter are my close friends and family. I do take their opinion to heart since I love them the most. Along with them would probably be my bosses or higher ups. They do control my career and I am trying to have the best life for myself. I do tend to let other peoples comments bother me when I know I shouldn't. I am trying to listen to myself more so I can be happier. It isn't fair to let other peoples opinions bother me.

Praise is almost always amazing to me. It really improves my self esteem and self image. It also lets me know I am doing a good job and to keep putting in the work. It shows that everything gets better and you need to push through. It is always a great mood booster and positive influence. It is definitely needed time to time.

What are some of the different identities/roles that you have and manage in your life?

# data[].attributes.body
I have many different roles in my life. The main ones are being a daughter, sister, friend, girlfriend, and student. These are all pretty self explanatory but it includes being dedicated, passionate, driven, caring, loyal, and supportive. There is no time off when it comes to these roles. It could be in the middle of the night or day when I am needed. I always try my best to be there no matter what because I know what it is like to have no one. Along with those roles, are my jobs. I am an employee to two different companies and I am expected to do two different jobs. At one I have to make pizzas, tend to the ovens, and manage the register. At my other job I spend a lot of time cleaning, organizing, and handling expensive equipment. These are just the major roles I have on nearly a daily basis.

I think I have learned I don't know myself yet. I also don't think I ever will. I know I need to listen to myself and be happy, but I tend to let things get in the way of that. I am also not as self aware as I thought I was and that is okay. I realized I still have a lot to work on before I am completely myself. We are always evolving and changing so it is easier just to go with the flow. I think I need to be able to let loose more and not care about the little things. I still have a lot to learn on this journey of life and self discovery.
