My Power Point Portfolio/ Mid Term

By Kayla Young

Personal Health HistoryI was born on October 17th,1995. I was born in Pomerado Hospital which is located in Poway California.

I got the name Kayla because both of my parents thought it was an unusual name, but it turns out that the name Kayla was one of the top-ten girl names for that year. At first my dad wanted to name me Ashley, but my mom didn’t like that name. My mom however, wanted to name me Miranda, but my dad didn’t want that name either; so they settled on Kayla.

The name “ Kayla” means: pure, beloved, wise-child and in Russian it means misunderstood. My last name is Young and although many people think it’s origin is China, the name young is actually from a Great Brittan Clan.

Family Health History Cont.My family’s health history: After studying my family’s history I found out that on my Dad’s side, his grandmother, my great grand-mother ,is still alive and is about 90 something years old, but it is hard to have a conversation with her. From my mom’s side her great aunts lived to their late 80’s and early 90’s , but her grandmother died of diabetes, and her mom died of cancer. Fortunately for me the cancer she died of isn’t inherited. However my mom does have TMJ, a jaw joint problem. I may inherit TMJ because my mom inherited it from her mom. Another thing that I have inherited is my eye-sight. Both my brother and myself are near-sided because both of my parents are near sided as well.

Results May Vary Results May Vary

Social and Emotional HealthHobbies: I like to play soccer and play outside with my neighbors. I also LOVE music and think that I would die without it. I play recreational basketball and used to dance, but I am currently too busy to continue to participate in it. A special talent that I have is that I am very creative and like to make games and crafts. This is my neighbor Isabella. She is 7 in this picture.

Pets: I used to have a beta fish that I got for Christmas named Bubbles, but he died. Then when we were walking home from school one day, my brother found a Parakeet and we named her Loli, but she was very shy and when we tried to take her out of her cage, she would bite us. So we gave her to a place called Bird Wild. Currently I have a 3 year old Golden Retriever named Cody. We’ve had him ever since he was 6 weeks old.

Social and Emotional Health: Cont.Travel: My favorite trip that I have gone on was to Hawaii. I went in August of last year with my family( Dad, Mom, Brother and Sister.) We also went with my neighbors, which was fun because I was able to go somewhere with a friend. We visited the Island of Maui and enjoyed snorkeling, swimming and eating out there.

Closest Friends: Alexis, Katie, Hana, Alex, Sydni, Kayla, Kelly, Jaime and many others. This is Hana, she always makes me laugh .

Social and Emotional Health: Cont. Schools Attended: I started my education at Penasquitos Christian Preschool and then attended Deer Canyon for Kindergarten. I moved and then attended Adobe Bluffs elementary for 1st through 5th grade. Then I attended Black Mountain Middle School and now go to Westview. This is a picture of me when I was in preschool and to the right is a picture of a snowman that I made.

Clubs: I am currently in the against animal cruelty club, but next year I would like to join Best Buddies because I want to be able to make a difference in someone’s life.

Health Triangle

I think That my health triangle is somewhat balanced because all parts of my triangle are around 75. However I do believe that I may be too physical and that may take away from my mental/ study sessions. Me!

Kayla Young

85- Physical: I am enrolled in many sports such as soccer and basketball and I like to swim and hang out with friends outside.

75- Social: I am very social with people that I know, but I am quite shy when it comes to meeting new people.

70-Mental and Emotional: Because I am very active I also become very tired and often times can get cranky.

Health Triangle Cont.

If one part of my triangle isn’t right or I have a weakness in one part; it can effects my whole triangle because I am no longer balanced in life so one piece has to suffer. For example, right now I am very active, but my grades are suffering from my physicality.

Unique Self: My song A place to crash

I got you No need to ask I got you Just get on the phone I got you Come and pick you up if I have to What’s weird about it Is we’re right at the end And mad about it Just figured it out in my head I’m proud to say I got you

Go ahead and say goodbye I’ll be alright Go ahead and make me cry I’ll be alright And when you need a place to run to For better for worse I got you I got you

Ain’t falling a part, or bitter Let’s be bigger than that and remember The cooling outdoor when you’re all alone We’ll go on surviving No drama, no need for a show Just wanna say I got you

Go ahead and say goodbye I’ll be alright Go ahead and make me cry I’ll be alright And when you need a place to run to For better for worse I got you Go ahead and say goodbye (go ahead) I’ll be alright (say goodbye) Go ahead and make me cry I’ll be alright And when you need a place to run to For better for worse I got you

‘Cause this is love and life And nothing we can both control And if it don’t feel right You’re not losing me by letting me know

Go ahead and say goodbye (say goodbye) I’ll be alright Go ahead and make me cry I’ll be alright And when you need a place to run to For better for worse I got you Go ahead and say goodbye (go ahead) I’ll be alright (say goodbye) Go ahead and make me cry I’ll be alright And when you need a place to run to For better for worse I got you

A place to crash I got you No need to ask I got you

Unique Self Cont.

The song ”I Got You” represents me because I feel that I am always there for others. I’m someone you can come to and talk to or share you feelings to. I also like to trust others and I like it when friends have my back. That’s a BIG thing I look for in friends.

Unique Self Cont.

The way I view myself is someone who is almost always happy. Someone who has CRAZY hair and who has a big heart.

Future Aspirations

The person who has made a huge difference in my life is my mom. She has always had my back and has helped me through the easiest and hardest times of my life. She not only raised me, but taught me about compassion, respect, responsibility and to always try my hardest.

My Letter:Dear Mom,

Thank you for always helping me through life. You have been such a positive figure in my life. I know I can tell you anything and everything and you’ll know just what to say.

Media Awareness

I can honestly say that although the media does influence my life, it doesn’t control it. I make my own decisions for most of the things that I do and buy, but there are times when the media steps in.

Most of the clothes that I wear are from Nordstrom, but that’s not because all of the celebrities go there, or because it’s a popular store. I buy my clothes from Nordstrom because my Aunt works there, so whenever they have a sale or they get in a new shipment of clothes, she buys me things to support her store.

The activities and music that I listen to also are not very affected by the media. I play soccer and basketball and have been playing them all of my life. Yes however I do have some “diva”/ mean girl moments like in the movies, but I try not to become mean and bratty like them. The music that I listen to is also not very affected by the media because I listen to the kinds of music I like, whether it’s cool or not.

However the media does affect the way I view myself. In the magazines there are always ads for “ how to have your best abs ever” or “ how to stay skinny”. This puts a lot of pressure on me to stay skinny even though I am a very active person. Another way the media affects me is in their models. They all have super clear skin. I wouldn’t say that I have a ton of acne, but I do break out and whenever I see a picture of a clear skinned model, I feel as if I have to look like her to be beautiful.
