My name
is Ghadir Abdulaziz. I am a 19 year old Muslim American from Palestine. I was
born and raised here in New Jersey. I have many big goals and dreams that I
want to achieve in life. I love my family and friends. I love to shop and
explore new things. I am an outgoing girl. Many people look at me in a weird
way since I wear the hijab but when they get to know me they find me
interesting by the things I tell them about my religion which is Islam. I love
to travel. Unfortunately, I’ve been to only three places out of the states
which are Canada, Jordan and my lovely homeland Palestine. I am currently a
Family and Child Studies major with a concentration of Child Life Specialist. I
think this major is just right for me because I love children and I know helping
children and their families overcome life’s most challenging events will be a
blessing for me. After four years of getting my Bachelor’s degree I want to
further my education and become more knowledgeable in children’s lives. I of
course would love to get married soon. Many people would want a rich person as
a spouse but I truly would not want a rich person. Money does not buy happiness
or love. My parents got married at a young age and I see their romance still
going strong till this day. I have four sisters and two brothers and they
raised us to be smart, intelligent kids. We love to have big picnics with the
whole family, and one of the funniest things that ever happened to me was at a
picnic at the park. I was playing basketball with a group of people that I
actually didn’t know. So they asked me “do you know how to play?” and I was
like “uhh yeah, I use to be in girl scouts”. So, they turned the ball to me and
I was thinking “oh I got his” and all of a sudden after I jump to make a basket
I fall flat on face and they started laughing at me. It was so embarrassing!
One topic that interests me is the Family
Trend project assignment. I think it would be great to do research on families
and analyzing family trend data. Another topic that also interested me is the
Part 2: Diversity and Families. I do not know exactly what it will be about but
I want to learn about the diversity in families, how it’s ok to take someone
out of your religion, race, ethnicity or there social class. Lately,
I’ve been seeing that and I think that it is great to see people not think they
use to a few years ago. I think wikis is an awesome idea. It was really
confusing at first but when I kept on going back and playing with it, I
realized that it’s actually fun and exciting. Before I watched the video, I
didn’t know how to use it. It taught me that you can just cut and paste your
assignment in the edit box and it will put it in document form. Also, when
working in a group, members can go back and edit anytime they want. Overall, I
think I’ll get the hang of it and I’m looking forward to this semester.
