Autobiography in Psychology
Many times in people 's lives, they are asked to define their personality and they do not know how to respond. What is the actual definition of personality and how can we define our own? Personality is a unique consistent pattern of thinking, feeling, and acting. In other words, personality is a combination of characteristics or qualities that form the person in you. Like a painting, there are many different color schemes that combine in order to show the big picture. There is no such thing as a person without a personality.

So the next few years in my life were a breeze. Old people pinching my cheeks, saying how adorable I was, feeding me, bathing me, burping me, changing my diapers, etc. during these years in my life my body would adapt to the world around me. I feel that if I didn 't get the care and nurturing that I needed from others, than I wouldn 't be able to move on to the next stage in my life; The independent stage.
Now I 'm 5 years old and cruising through life; eating cookies, watching TV, trying on my mother 's lipstick, everything 's going great. Then one day I hear of this place called "school". What 's happening? One day I
