For the first time all semester psychology has enlightened me! I already knew of Ivan Pavlov, Sigmund Freud, Wilhelm Wundt, Carl Jung and Edward Thorndike. I had asked my questions about them back in high school. However, I didn't know much about Stanley Milgram and Philip Zimbardo ( Read more... )

The person you share every little secret with, openly shares theirs too and has known you for a quite a few years has the potential to love you forever because they have proved that they will not betray you ( Read more... )

So today is a very sad day. It's sad because no one was really all that affected. She died alone. I don't know if anyone cried. I teared up a little bit, but I didn't full out cry. Even I teared up for the wrong reasons. I cried because no one else was going to. It was just sad that she lived a full life and failed to have a strong connection with ( Read more... )

Our elections are online in college? How lame. I wanted to go vote. I've been solicited for the last few weeks. I finally picked my candidate and now all I have to do is log on and vote. I think by voting online I feel like it loses it's importance, which is a ridiculous thing to say, but it's how I feel ( Read more... )

It makes me so mad. I'm "not just sure [I'm] HIV positive." Okay, that wasn't me, I am not HIV positive. South Park just played that on a commercial and it ( Read more... )

Overall I would have to say that psychology is not one of my favorite classes, although I do find it helpful for excuses. Examples ( Read more... )

Intentions end up meaning nothing.

I think that the reason I am content with my personality and the way I carry myself is not becsuse I like my self as a person nearly as much as there was a time that I didn't like myself. You may be thinking, "How can you not like yourself as a person? That would be an easy thing to change." It wasn't so easy and I think it took me a few years to ( Read more... )

I am totally cool with whatever sexual orientation a person chooses. The only thing that gets on my nerves is when a person isn't just being themselves. I have a friend who has just recently came out. He used to be all conservativish (yes I just made that up) and frankly kinda sheepish. Since he took those first few steps out of the closet he's ( Read more... )
