私は誰か？ | Khalifa Albarra Damanik | TEDxCRIBS Youth

デポック出身の13歳の学生、カリファ・アルバラ・ダマニク氏が、友人と自分を比べ、友人の習慣や字の書き方、話し方を真似てきた経験を振り返ります。その結果、何かが足りないと感じるようになり、そもそも自分自身が何者なのかを立ち止まって考えてこなかったことに気づいたと語ります。本講演は、地域コミュニティが独自に開催したTEDxイベントで行われました。

• 友人の優しさや知性、才能に近づかなければという プレッシャーを感じた経験
• 友人の習慣、字の書き方、話し方を真似たこと
• 本当の自分とは何かを問い直す必要性に気づいたこと

Have you ever looked at your friends and thought, “I wish I were more like them” Maybe they are kinder, smarter, or better at schoolwork. Yes, I thought about that too, I saw my friend and asked to myself “Why are they better than me?”, “Why are they smarter than me?” or “Why are they more talented than me?”. So i started copying them in many things like their habits, handwriting, even speaking style. I copied many things from them, at first I thought it was common for a 13 years old teenager like me. But then I realized that I started to feel like something was missing. I was trying so hard to become someone else that I hadn't really stopped to ask who I was. I am an eighth-grader student from Cahaya Rancamaya Islamic Boarding School ~ Junior high who was born on December 3, 2012, in Depok, and still lives in Pancoran mas district, Depok My hobby is reading books, drawing and playing video games. The reason why i join TEDx is to improve my english pronouncing skills and memorization skills. I also hope with joining this program i can gain more confidence and learn valuable experiences that will help me to grow in the future.
