Hello!
My name is Hannah Imhoff. I am 17 years old and attend Edgar high school.
Something that has shaped me as a person has a actually been a someONE: my mom. Her name is Kim and she is about the most amazing person I've ever met! Of the four children in her family, she was the only one to earn a college degree. She has a been a special education teacher at Stratford elementary for years and I have learned so much from her. I greatly respect her motivation and drive. I also really enjoy spending time with her. Over the years she has taught me strong morals, such as self-respect and respect for others, honesty, responsibility, and integrity. My mom is one of my best friends and I hope that I can one day be a mom like her. Having her as a role model has definitely played a role in shaping who I am today.
I believe that it is important to study psychology in order to better understand how and why poeple are the way they are. Psychology is a study that lets us focus on who we, as well as the people around us, are. It is important to try to understand why we do the things we do, which I believe is a concept that is much more complex than it sounds.
Personally, I would define psychology as the study of the mind. It is a science that digs into the behavior of human beings and their mental abilities, tendencies, and processes. It is a never ending research of the most interesting thing on the planet: ourselves.
Hannah I love the part about your mom. I know that you have had some hard times and I'm glad your mom is always there for you when you need her just like me family is for me. It definately helps to have someone in your life like that.

Hey Han! I think it's really great that you're so close to your mom.. I wish my mom and I were that close! My mom lives in Missouri and I see her about once a year so take advantage of the fact that your mom is here for you! I hope everything you have learned from her keeps helping you everyday and for the rest of your life!
