I am 17 years 346 days old (so technically 18). I study in Fountainhead School located in Surat. I have taken Psychology, Business Management, and Hindi B as my HL. I have taken Biology, Maths and English language literature as my SL. These subjects indicate my inclinations towards humanities which focus on human behavior and physiology. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I am a movie freak who is still struggling to find her favorite genre yet. Apart from watching movies, you will see me arguing with someone about something, but at the time I have learned to listen to what the other person has to say (Credit goes to IB for it). Not just that, you will\u00a0probably find me singing some of the other symphonies. And lastly playing basketball which gives me an adrenaline rush everytime I step onto the court. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">My outlook on life is that everyone has something to contribute to the world the only difference between their contribution is how many people are influenced by it. I firmly believe that if each individual can bring a change which they wish to see, then the world would have been a much safer and more comfortable place to live. But things are changing due to the attempt of providing the optimum conditions to each individual. Although these attempts aren\u2019t made enough for women because of the mentality of assuming them as incapable and objectified in the societies. I would not call myself a feminist as the world has changed the meaning to equality for women is inequality for men, but as a woman, I do feel the need to give equal opportunities and freedom to women.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To accomplish my goals in my life, I do think that I need to have better-listening skills and have a high tolerance towards people even though if I don\u2019t agree with them. Additionally, I would like to be involved in activities which help in changing societal norms and establishing a balance of equality among different genders. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I am an adventurous person which doesn&#8217;t mean I am not scared of doing such things but doing those things which makes me go \u201cI cannot do this\u201d are the things which motivate to take a step ahead. I want to learn how to surf, make sure to do the terrifying roller coasters in the world and lastly get a cat as my pet. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>CAS Plan<\/b><\/p>\n<table style=\"height: 8205px;\" width=\"736\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><b>Proposed Activities<\/b><\/td>\n<td><b>Description of the activity<\/b><\/td>\n<td><b>Components (C\/A\/S)<\/b><\/td>\n<td><b>Start and end date<\/b><\/td>\n<td><b>Learning Outcomes you aim to achieve\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0<\/b><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cleaning at Gavier Lake<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We visited Gavier Lake which contained a lot of weeds, so we went in boats and kayak to remove those weeds.
