Ben Kimim? | Khalifa Albarra Damanik | TEDxCRIBS Youth

Depok'ta yaşayan 13 yaşındaki bir öğrenci, arkadaşlarıyla kendini kıyaslamayı ve onların alışkanlıklarını, el yazısını ve konuşma tarzını taklit etmeyi anlatıyor. Bu durumun kendisinde bir eksiklik hissi yarattığını ve kim olduğunu sorgulamayı ihmal ettiğini fark ettiğini paylaşıyor. Konuşma, yerel bir topluluk tarafından bağımsız olarak düzenlenen bir TEDx etkinliğinde sunulmuş.

• Arkadaşlarına benzeme baskısı
• Alışkanlıkları ve konuşma tarzını taklit etme
• Kişinin kendine kim olduğunu sorması gerektiği fikri

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.
