MASTERCHEF'S POH

Poh, a recent contestant on the successful series Masterchef is a visual artist of Chinese-Malay background. This is an interesting article which among other things touches on her experience of growing up between 2 cultures. It may help you to develop some ideas about your own experiences. Another thing that you might like to consider is the effect on one's identity that comes from achieving a rapid rise to fame, which is the case for Poh and indeed for many other reality television contestants. Would it be difficult to avoid getting an inflated sense of one's worth and importance?
