All About Me
Nimrat Purba
Who am I?
Hi! My name's Nimrat and I am currently 15 years old turning 16 this october. I attend Louis Arbour Secondary School and I am in the tenth grade. I think of myself as a very open and outgoing person that can hold a conversation without being awkward. My friends would say that I have a good sense of humour since I can joke around but be serious when I need to.
My Life Line.
When I was Born
I was born on October 10th, 2000. In this picture I was about a month old.
My First Vacation
I went to Vancouver in 2004 when I was around 4 or 5 to visit my cousins. This picture shows me sitting at the airport ready to go on my first airplane.
My 10th Birthday
My 10th birthday was important to me because when I was 10 I had my first birthday party. I remember inviting a bunch of friends and having a good time. Unfortunately I don't have a picture of this event.
Toronto Maple Leafs Game
I went to a TML game on May 8th, 2013. I was 13 years old when I went to watch this game. Hockey is one of my favourite sports so I was very excited to go and experience a real game.
R.i.p Grandpa
On May 13th, 2013, my grandpa sadly passed away. I was 13 years old and very close to my grandpa since he lived with me and my family so it was a very big change not getting to see him everyday like usual.
Grade 8 Graduation
This is a picture from grade 8 graduation which took place on June 26th, 2014. I was 14 years old and it was a day to remember since it was very fun spending time with all my middle school friends one last time before everyone went to different high schools.
Ripley's Aquarium
July 24, 2014. I went here when I was 14, it was memorable to me because I had just gotten a fish tank and I was very interested in different types of fish so I wanted to check this aquarium out.
Blue Jays Game
Since I love sports and I am a big fan of the Toronto Blue Jays, I went to go watch a game in August of 2014.
Halloween Haunt
I went to Canada's Wonderlands fear fest (Halloween Haunt) last Halloween which was October 26th, 2015. I was 15 years old and it was one of my most memorable experiences. I am definitely planning on going again this year.
Party
This party was a indian apparel party for most high schools in Brampton. School such as Louis Arbour, Turner Fenton and Castlebrooke were also at this party. It was fun while it lasted since it was pretty short. I love parties and I love to dance especially with my friends which made this a night to remember.
My Favourite Things.
let's talk about some things that I favourite and love. My favourite colour is red, my favourite pet is a dog, specifically rottweilers, my favourite thing to do when i'm bored is listen to music or hangout with my friends, and my favourite movie series is The Fast & Furious Series. I also really enjoy the show Friends.
Favourite Colour - Red
One of my top favourite colours is red. This colour just stands out to me and I love anything red. It is also one of my favourite colours to wear since I think it suits me and my skin tone the best.
Favourite Pet - Dog (Rottweiler)
My favourite pet has always been a dog and ever since I was small I have always wanted to own a rottweiler. Dogs are just the cutest thing and they could be good security as well.
Hobbies - Listen to music, hangout with friends
When I am home and bored, I usually meet up with my friends and we hangout. This is something I do on a normal daily basis now since it is summer and the weather is super nice and the the days are longer. Listening to music is something I do almost every second of my day. I constantly have headphones in and am listening to the newest songs. My all time favourite singer/rapper is Drake.
Favourite Movie Series - The Fast & Furious
The Fast & Furious Series is one of my many favourite movies. I have watched these movies many times and discover new things every time I watch. The things that attracts me most to these movies are the story lines. All of the movies are somehow connected but all have a different and unique story. I also love that the characters in the movie have a mindset of "family first". All of the characters are always putting the people they care about before themselves which I don't think you find in very many movies. Lastly, the cars in the movies are just beautiful. I don't know much about engines and cars, but I know a nice car when I see one.
Favourite show - Friends
Friends is one of my all time favourite T.V. shows for many reasons. No matter how many times I watch an episode, it never gets old. I love the show because I feel the cast is perfect. They all get along so well, it makes me believe it's all real. I also love the show because of the humour. I have never watched an episode where I have not laughed. All the cast members have their own way of expressing their humour which is what interests me as well. I also find the story line of every episode unique. Every episode has a different story line and different problems they encounter. After watching all 10 seasons, I have grown attached to the show and was very sad when I watched the final episode.
My Leadership Styles.
According to the survey, the results show that my leadership style is that I am a leader and persuader. This is true since I do like to make my own decisions and lead a group of people. I am very good at getting people to realize something from my point of view which makes me a persuader.
my influences.
My main influence is my brother and friends.
My main influence is my brother. He is 5 years older than me which means that he is currently 21. Since he is so much older, he has experience much more than life than I have so he is able to share his experiences with me. I can learn from his mistakes and learn from what he has accomplished in life. My friends have also influenced me in many different ways. One way being academically. Some of my best friends are best at a subject I am very weak at and they encourage me to practice to get better, do my homework, and also help me study for tests. Another way would be that they always push me a little bit out of my comfort zone which is what they are there for. If something happens, they always support me and always give me their opinion and best advice. The many influences I have in my life are the reason I turned out to be the person I am today.
Role model/people in my life
One important person in my life is my brother.
My brother is someone who is very confident and open minded. He is not afraid to say what he wants which I appreciate because I like when people are honest. I have a very close and open relationship with my brother. We share a lot of stories of situations that take place in our lives. He has taught me what is good and what is bad and things I should watch out for in life. I look up to my brother because he has been through a lot of things in life that I know about and I respect him and everything he does for me and my good.
My future
I am not 100% sure about what I would like to do in the future so I am trying to explore different options. Some options I have been thinking about are dentist and nursing. Before, I was very much into the business field and becoming a lawyer but recently for a couple months, I have been a lot more interested in the medical field. I feel like I would enjoy becoming a nurse or dentist or maybe even a paediatrician since I would love to work with kids. I would like to attend Ryerson University or George-Brown College if I would like to pursue becoming a dentist. However, if I would like to become a nurse then I would most likely attend Humber college. Even though it is college, I know many people who have went there for nursing and have well payed jobs in hospitals today.
family symbols
My family
My family currently consists of 4 people. My dad, mom, older brother, and I. I have a great small family that gets a lot and has fun together. I am very grateful for everything my family does for me. Unfortunately I do not have a current picture of my family and I but this is when there were 6 members in my family which means including my grandpa and grandma.
Indian Flag
This flag is important because it is my parents background. It is the country they come from and lived in before they knew each other and came to Canada to start a family. My grandparents also lived in india most of their life which is also why it is an important symbol. It is my family's background.
Khanda
This is a Khanda and it basically represents my religion. The khanda is a symbol of sikhism. It means that if you believe in god, then god will always be with you.
Bhangra
Bhangra is a type of punjabi folk tradition dance type. Bhangra is an important thing in my family because my cousin is on an international team called SGPD and all of us family members support him very much. Also it is very fun and a great workout!
