Welcome! I’m Shern, and here’s a little introduction about myself:
I’m 22, full name Shern Lulla. That’s an Indian last name (I know right) if you were wondering. And the answer to your next question would be: no, I speak Mandarin actually.
I’m into physique sports and the sports/nutrition science that goes along with it. I truly believe it is a show of commitment as an athletic skill. I’m also an amateur chef, which does tie back to training since I need to eat- Often and a lot.
Not much else apart from that. My other interests are basic. I like dogs, I like playing games, and I’m waiting for my modelling career to take off.
(By the way follow me on instagram)
So why Psychology?
I guess the main reason was after working as a personal trainer for awhile, I noticed casual reflections of body image issues from many of my clients. Not just that, but many in and out of the sport start because they feel like they need to correct something.
Don’t quote me on this, but I feel like if we grabbed almost anybody off the street, they probably aren’t entirely happy with their physique either.
Many forget that in the pursuit of a better aesthetic, there should be some kind of holistic development too. Did your dad ever tell you that sport builds character? You know, he was probably right.
Look, someone can transform physically and everybody talks about what a good job he did. Nobody says anything about the crazy amount of self-efficacy he probably built, or how he is probably is an entirely different person now than when he started.
In Psychology I hope I get to a place where I can professionally participate in the development of athletes, as well as help those with issues related to physique.
Communication and Media Psychology
Oh boy. I used to be a Mass Comm student so I’m already feeling jittery.
Modern media isn’t going anywhere, it will continue to enrich or plague us for a long time- however you wish to view it.
It’s significant how we perceive messages. It’s the foundation of understanding both the positive and negative outcomes of exposure to media.
I get that it’s cool to discuss all the negative and extreme cases of exposures to certain types of media. And of course, that’s important. However as I said, it will continue to be part of our lives and of course has to enrich it in some way. How about shaping and consuming our thoughts of our exposure where it aids in our development?
I hope Communication and Media Psychology will be a great introduction to what’s behind the curtain.
Anyway, that’s all for now. Thanks for reading and see you again next time!

This is a very thought-provoking post and I like it very much! I agree with your perspective on how a person’s mentality can be redefined by embarking on a fitness journey. Personally, I do feel that for one it cultivates discipline – a character that is essential for efficiency in our pursuit of success. Furthermore, little did I know fitness was also a reason for your drive to pursue Psychology! It is a unique yet a resourceful reason lad! Anyway, I possibly can’t wait to see what your other blog posts contain, but I shall wish you all the best not only for your modelling career but also your journey ahead!
