E Portfolio Entry #3 "Enneagram & Strengths"

 Enneagram & Strengths

    My enneagram test result was a seven. I think that this result describes me pretty well because sevens are extroverted, optimistic, and spontaneous. My top five strengths on my strength finder were adaptability, woo, competition, harmony, and empathy. I think that these are also very accurate for my personality. Three significant things I learned from these tests are that I really try hard to get people to like me whether that is a good thing or a bad thing. I learned that I am always willing to be flexible to others and finally that I have a good sense of what a group is feeling. I can improve upon my focus and discipline characteristics within the strength finder test. I can lean more into my empathy to lead a group better.

#12 Living the Dolce Vita: The True Meaning of ‘La Dolce Vita’ and How It Applies to Study Abroad

  Living the Dolce Vita: The True Meaning of ‘La Dolce Vita’ and How It Applies to Study Abroad      Picture this, you are me and you tell someone that you are studying abroad in Italy. "Yeah, I'm studying abroad in Italy I'm so excited!". The other person says, "Oh my gosh that sounds like so much fun I would love to be in Italy!". I feel like that is an example of how not only are you living the sweet life but others think that too. It is just a different type of lifestyle than American life. You can feel it and so can everyone around you.  For example, this is what my daily life in Arezzo looked like. I would wake up early which is something I would never be doing in America. I go downstairs eat a nice fresh breakfast and have my first cappuccino of the morning. After this, I would go to class with 39 of my closest friends and enjoy the first lecture of the day. During the breaks between lectures, I would go to a cafe with a few of my friends get my secon...

"Sienna"

  "Sienna"     While observing the Sienna Duomo I saw many extravagant designs and vibrant colors. Then I looked closer and saw the sculpted faces of 172 Popes. I think I relate this to leadership in PCS as well as my fraternity. Many of my peers and higher ups are constantly judging my character and actions. Just as if the Pope figures are judging the audiences actions in the Duomo.     This also relates to how we are seen on this trip, how people view us and our actions. I think an important decision I made while on this trip was trying my best to engage with the Italian students in our group. I  think that they noticed this and started to be more engaged. My other team members also noticed this and started trying their best to make conversations with the students. This made the environment in our group very comfortable and open.     Influence can be a blessing and a curse. If you make one wrong decision and things fall apart in your group. Howe...

#4 "Pomaio Winery + Pasta Making"

Image
 Pomaio Winery + Pasta Making     First off the winery was absolutely amazing and the views were breathtaking. After visiting the winery there are many things I've learned. One of these being just the entire process of making wine. I had absolutely no idea how it's made in general so it was really cool just to learn about it. The second thing I learned is that the color is based off how long the grapes are in the wine. The third I learned was that the oak barrels give the wine extra flavor. The difference between the Italian and American culture is that wine in America is more of a fancy drink but in Italy it is casual.     What I observed from pasta making with my peers is that some of them were naturally better than others. For example I am not a good cook at all but Jack knew what exactly to do. Also I noticed that people were fine with the few instructions but I was very stressed with everything not being laid out in front of me. Fabio has a very interesting...
