this perception of yourself? Identify the people, groups or social institutions that significantly influenced your
understanding of yourself. Fill in the table below with your answers.
People/Groups/Social
Institutions with Whom I Have My Self-perception via Social
Had Meaningful Encounters Interaction
I can describe myself around my
family as open as possible.
FAMILY Because we were raised by our
parents as a very close-siblings
too. But, when I’m with my
relatives I tend to act more formal
and graceful, especially around my
Lolo, Lola, Titos and Titas.
Myself when I’m around my
bestfriends is a higher-level of
freedom to be myself, wherein I
BEST FRIENDS could just share randomly private
things about me or secrets to
her/them without any hesitations.
And I could burst my emotions
unto them whenever I like or I
have some burden within me.
I see myself in this group as a
responsible leader/member who
IHMA CHORALE follows rules and knows how to
discipline, since I’m really serious
(served 6 years; A choir group in with my commitment. And who
my previous Alma Mater) puts her heart to every song she
sang because it’s for the Lord. All
the crazy-fun side of mine are all
set-aside.
How my Self-perception was
Established
My self-perception or the way I
see myself around my family was
established by influence, since my
other cousins seems to act graceful
or formal too. Because my family
as a whole, is very conservative.
They wanted us girls, learn how to
act like a proper lady.
I am much more-free because, this
group has the same cup-of-tea as
mine, like we were really on the
same page. With them, I feel
there’s no judgement,
pretentiousness and competition,
just pure good vibes.
Since then, I already love singing
and music as a whole. Immaculate
Heart of Mary Academy (IHMA)
Chorale, has a large portion in my
heart, since they are not just my
choirmate but they are all like a
family to me already.
2. Consider Mead’s concepts of the I and me self. Using the graphic organizer below, make a list of your
characteristics for each of these two categories. Which one better describes your social self?

My Social Self
-I think, what describes my social self more is the ME
SELF, because speaking of "social self" for me, it is
somewhat related to the definition of "Me Self" which
represents the internalized attitudes, expectations and
demands of other people and the individual's
awareness of those demands which is through
socialization. But there are also times when the I and
Me self are united, thus attain the full development of
self.
