1.1 Entering Adolescence
I feel that this date is perfect fit because it is the day I turned thirteen! Around that time, I was affected by hormones change and growth spurt as I was affected by puberty. I was also diagnosed with chronic kidney disease, so it was when I started to think deeper and take responsibility of my internal health. On the textbook, it explained that entering adolescence involves biological, cognitive, and socioemotional changes so, I feel that this time hit all three. -
1.2 Emerging Adulthood
This date is perfect one to determine that I have entered adulthood. I will be 21 at this time, and I am currently 19 so I can imagine my identity exploration will be rising from now. At this moment, I am currently exploring my identity as a Deaf woman who also is pursuing an Education major. Between 18-21 is when I'm in college, and having full responsibility such as bills, relationship, and time management. I'm also experience instability as I face conflicts in social, work, life, and more.
