Apri's profile
Hello, everybody….!
First, I would like to introduce myself. My name is Aprisari, but I prefer people calling me Apri. It is obviously no secret that I was born in April. I come from the third largest city in Indonesia which is Medan. Medan also happens to be famous for the food. Thus, automatically, I have high interest of food in my blood. Besides food, I happen to have high interest in people too which is why I am a psychology student currently in Help University College in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
Since I was 14, I have always wanted to be a psychologist. I was inspired by the novel written by Jodi Picoult which has the elements of psychology. Only lately, I found myself wanting to be a specialist which is to be a clinical psychologist as this particular field really caught my interest. And if I am given the opportunity, I would really love to work in a psychological society. My wish is to be able to help people with mental health issues and to help them solve the problems they face. It hurts me when people’s lives are ripping apart because they think there is no way out for their problems, which is why I would like to improve their quality life.

I would like to believe that one day I could be a good clinical psychologist as I have what it takes to be one. I can put myself in someone’s shoes and this way I could understand people better. I tend to put others’ interests before me if they need me. I am also a good listener because I just love to listen. It amazes me of what I can gain and learn by listening. Moreover, I know how it feels like when no one seems to understand or listen to me when I am troubled. That’s why I want to be there for people who need to be listened. Besides that, I am a person who respects differences. So, I hardly ever judge people by their statements. I am also a person who is willing to learn anything and anyone new. I hope this characteristic helps me in my future career. Furthermore, I am in love with psychology as it is the answer to any human’s psychological and mental problems. Thus, as it is an intrinsic motivation of mine to learn psychology, I believe I could be good in what I want to be.
In the future, if I were to have patients on my own, I would use my ability to treat them seriously. I would do everything I can in my power to help them. As they have trusted me with their problems, the least I could do is to do my job wholeheartedly.

As for my interest, I love travelling. One day, I would like to try the ‘work and travel’ program. Hopefully, through it, I could gain a lot of precious experience and could learn as much culture as possible which will be very helpful for me to understand people better. The more I understand their culture, belief, or values, the more I could help them solving their problems. Besides travelling, I love watching movies and reading books too. From those activities, I actually learn a lot of values in life which gives me reasons why I would want to be a psychologist in the first place.
As for my dreams, I have silly ones. Still, I hope they would come true one day. I would like to have a romantic dinner with my true love in the restaurant on top of Eiffel Tower, ride a Gondola together in Venice, and shop till drop in New York. If possible, I wish to meet Jodi Picoult, my favourite author and the one who inspired me of psychology, have her autograph and have a picture together with her. That is all from me now. Thank you everybody for reading my profile…!
