I am


My Name is Carolina Werner de Araujo, Brazilian, 26 years old, Btech student at CPUT. But who am I really?

Once I heard that everyone is made of three facets: The person the others think you are, the one you think you are, and the one you really are. I agree with it and I believe that all these three facets are always under construction.

To get a view of the person the others think I am I asked some family members, friends, colleagues and acquaintances to give me a quick feedback of what they think of me. They used words such as sweet, distracted, crazy, creative, extrovert, pedantic, overachiever and exuberant.

In my perception I am a perfectionist, sincere, a little tiny bit inpatient sometimes, agitated and at the same time calm. I am someone that spends a lot of time with my own thoughts. I am also very proudly Brazilian happy to live in Cape Town.

Now who I really am? I guess it is a mix of both, hopefully the best of both, and a little bit more. I guess following me here will help you and I to get closer to the answer.

  2. Carolina, you live up to the Latin meaning of your name of "Beautiful Woman" but I would like to add sincere and caring. This is what makes you beautiful inside and out.
