Character strengths and what I've experienced - Sina

Kindness - I think that showing kindness is definitely good because if you show positivity and tolerance you have good friends and let people know that you are proud of them. It also helps you get connections which are good in many jobs because you can never go wrong with connections. Being kind is definitely something that is taken for granted because people think that power = money. But if your rich in kindness it can get you to many places.

Humour - In one of my modules called Adrenaline we had a mini amazing race and it was around kayaking. We had four people in each team, two in the canoe and one on each kayak. We had to go 100m down the river and then come back to where we started and we had to swap place and the two people in the kayaks had to go to the canoe and the people in the canoe had to swap into the kayaks. When we swapped we were trying to adjust things and when we turned around we saw one of our teammates being carried away by the current because he didn't know how to kayak. So I started laughing and it was just a funny experience that definitely took a lot of stress of our team's shoulders. 

Fairness - When we were playing volleyball for social volleyball the other team served and I jumped to touch it and it went out. The ref wasn't sure if I touched it, I didn't want our team to lose a point but I didn't want to lie/cheat so I told the truth and the point went to the team we were versing.
