Who Am I: Psychologist or Philosopher?

Right Now,

I am finding myself at a fork in the road about whether I want to go into Philosophy or Psychology. In a perfect world I would like to integrate perspectives from both disciplines and do most of my writings and research on Critical Race Theory, Feminist Theory, and Human Sexuality (in no particular order). I am attempting an undergraduate thesis in Philosophy that will attempt to do this. I will use this experience as a preview to how things may be attempting to merge these two ideas. The real problem is that I do want to go into Counseling, so I have a slight affinity to the discipline of Psychology. With that said, my undergraduate experiences with both of these departments are so opposing, where the Psychology department has been cold and stand off-ish, and the Philosophy department has been nothing but open and supportive of their students. I will have to decide what to do before August, since that is when I will be applying for graduate school. What I may end up doing is applying to both Philosophy AND Psychology programs, and seeing if any actually accept me. haha. TO BE CONTINUED..

The song I chose may not be as coordinated with this topic as it is inspiring to me:

Living on a Prayer

Once upon a time
Not so long ago
Tommy used to work on the docks
Union's been on strike
He's down on his luck...it's tough, so tough

Gina works the diner all day
Working for her man, she brings home her pay
For love - for love

She says: We've got to hold on to what we've got
'Cause it doesn't make a difference
If we make it or not
We've got each other and that's a lot
For love - we'll give it a shot

We're half way there
Livin' on a prayer
Take my hand and we'll make it - I swear
Livin' on a prayer

Tommy got his six string in hock
Now he's holding in what he used
To make it talk - so tough, it's tough

Gina dreams of running away
When she cries in the night
Tommy whispers: Baby it's okay, someday
We've got to hold on to what we've got
'Cause it doesn't make a difference
If we make it or not
We've got each other and that's a lot
For love - we'll give it a shot

We're half way there
Livin' on a prayer
Take my hand and we'll make it - I swear
Livin' on a prayer
We've got to hold on ready or not
You live for the fight when it's all that you've got
We're half way there
Livin' on a prayer
Take my hand and we'll make it - I swear
Livin' on a prayer

Maybe I will figure this out.

A not so great academic beginning to a potentially awesome year

Yeah, it's true. I have been having the best time getting my G.P.A up until the beginning of this academic year! It's like this year sucks! I mean really. Every test I was saved from C-dom because of extra credit! MY GOD!

I am used to A's. This is out of the ordinary. What I will do about this?

-Study more than I do already

-Groups of study

-make more time for my classes

Other than that; can I say I HAVE THE BEST GROUP OF OFFICERS THIS YEAR!

YAY for being a dork!

Me: FUCKTARD

So it was my birthday yesterday and I experienced something different than I usually do.

I think the morning part of the day was exceptional but as the night ensued things just began to fall apart for me. It really kinda sucks though because I don't really have an opinion of really how the day should have played out in the first place!

I am just in the worst mood I have been in, in quite a while and everything seems to suck right about now. I am feeling this way then you ask me a question that I presume you thought would put some fire under my ass and said, "It's like you're satisfied with this mediocre life." I am satisfied. I am satisfied in the achievements I am making, I am satisfied with the down time I have currently to bring my thoughts together before ore school. I am happy that we live in a house with a dog and two cats, I am happy that I live with you. I am happy that I study when I am supposed to. I am happy that I go to Tea Rex. I am happy I have a job. I am happy I workout in the mornings now. I am happy I do things that make me relaxed. I am happy with it. 

I think we all have phases in life that we go through until we unltimately die. Right now we are in scholl. That means that we work and go to school. We live, we have friends, we form bonds and keep bonds for the rest of our lives. We do so much I am offended you even call it a mediocre life. It's not. We have a good life, and great potential for the future. 

So next time; speak for yourself. I'm sorry that I am making your life so mediocre.

Just when I think I am the farthest from reality...

HEY! 

I think I really want to write about my thoughts in my idle moments. I have come to think about how I revert back to my ways of yore. I revert back to my couch potato days. all I do is watch television and wish and dream of what could be. My future. The thing that seems so far in the distance. When I am watching television I am thinking of things I could be doing instead like research or studying to better myself. Right now I don't have anything I am currently researching, but I have the motivation and determination. I see myself getting somewhere good. I only become insecure in my idle moments.

Everyone has them; idle moments.. I just get wierd and dejected during mine.

Sitting right next to you

Hi,

I am sitting right here next to you and am thinking about looking good for you later. (hopefully I only have one follower.... ) 

At the risk of sounding unsexy; I was referring to Ritchie as the one I was talking to at the beginning of the post.

Love,

Desiderata.

So I think I know what the case of the Mondays are...

So, the case of the mondays is when you don't feel like doing anything because it's Monday.. still the freaking weekend in my brain.

I am lathargic yet the sun is giving me hope.

A new thought...

I guess Myspace is old. I saw my boyfriend writing a new blog in here and I had to create an account... hope it works out! Well here it goes:

1. I am all about psychology

2. I am practically married

3. I am bored on a Friday night.

Ciao!
