UNDERSTANDING THE

SELF

ACTIVITY &
ASSESSMENT 6

PALMA, ABEGAIL S.
BS ARCHI 1-3
Activity 6
Write your thoughts about these statements:

1. In your own perspective define what is beauty


This isn’t just about how you look or your physical appearance. It is also
about your characteristics like how you treat people around you. If you’re
beautiful but your attitude is trash? No, you just passed the physical appearance
because at the end of the day it’s always the personality. Yes you’re beautiful
and there’s always a BUT after.

2. Give at least 2 persons in your life whom you consider beautiful and explain
what makes them beautiful

Of course, my mother and father. They’re the reason why I’m here. And even
if they’re not together now, I still thank them for making me a good person and
feel strong in life. We are open to each other especially with my mother. I always
talk to her, ask for advices and if things get rough and I am doubting myself,
she’s always there to lift me up. Cheering for me that I can do it and if I didn’t
get a highest score in exams, she always says that it’s ok and I can still make it
next time. They support me for the thing I really love. And these are some reasons
why they are beautiful to me.

3. Which part of your body do you consider beautiful,


explain why?

My eyes because of how I see things in different


perspective. And being observant helped me a lot about
how my actions should be. Seeing the good things in
difficulty. I always see the good things within the heart
of a person even if they did something wrong.

4. I am Beautiful or Handsome because…


I know who I am and this is the real me. I know to myself


that I have a good heart. I am treating people with
respect around me. I am confident and I know how to
handle myself. I am unique and no one can duplicate me.

Assessment 6
Listen to “Mrs. Potato Head” by Melanie Marquez.
1. Explain what message she is sending in her music.

It’s about the beauty standard that the toxic society sets. That plastic surgery is the way for us to be
considered beautiful. But the results are always not that good. We should think the consequences before doing it
or is it worth it? And we cannot control our body not to have wrinkles or shrinking skin because they are
natural. We are aging, we can’t stay being a baby skin forever.

2. Discuss what lines that struck you the most.


“No one will love you if you’re unattractive”


Sadly, this is true in some cases. Yes, the first thing we notice in a person is his/her face or physical
appearance. But the thing is we should also see the beauty inside. The personality of that person. Some people
still prefer good looking person over the attitude. Maybe it lessen their pride or ego if their partner is not
good looking for them and the people around them.

“And a hundred thousand dollars for some compliments”


This is the reason why SOME people do plastic surgery. Because all their life, they suffered from people looking
at them down for their face. For a long time, they’re hiding in the shadow of the so called beauty standard.
Maybe they want to feel how it is to be complimented by the people around them and it will boost their
confidence.

“Does a new face come with a warranty?”


This is what I said earlier. Does it give you a warranty that people will like the new face over the before? Is
it going to satisfied me or it will be another way around because it didn’t worked for me. Plastic surgery is
not for everyone but it’s still your face and your decision.
