Bridge 2 (Peer to Peer): Peer Interview

Peeling through the layers to discover what?

This project could also be seen as reminiscence in self realization or an episode in self awareness. At our age, often times people are not aware of who they are, what they stand for. We are still “finding ourselves” as they say. For me personally, this was a a process of self awareness. I discovered more about myself as Isabell went question by question, analyzing me. Sometimes putting your thoughts into words and saying them out loud does that.

Isabell and I were not originally meant to be peered up for the group project. But we soon discovered we were rather much alike.

What irked me irked her too, (mostly, I can get annoyed by a lot of things.)

There are so many different levels on which you can get to know a person. So many different aspects to a personality. All of this information lies in the kind of questions one would pose to gather it. Like different keys would open different doors in a house. Which key to use, to unlock which door?

I feel like we choose to unlock the familiar doors. The familiar feelings, aspirations, thinking, and so on. So its really our reflection in the person we put in question. Our thoughts that turns into curiosity that turns into a question. In order to form a connection with the said person we choose to walk the recognized path. One we have been acquainted with rather well.

Isabell and I met a couple of times and conducted informal question – answer type interview of one another between just hanging out and spending time with each other. I have found a friend in her by the end of this project, which i am grateful for.
