On My Mind

Another semester down! Only one and one half years left and I cannot wait. Although I enjoy school, getting a job with better pay, and a job where I can show off my skills, is incredibly important to me. People say that I am expecting too much, but I say you truly can do whatever you set your mind too. My mind is set and there is no stopping me......

I realize that many people graduate college and end up doing nothing with their degree. I believe this is because the person is not trying hard enough. Getting a job, especially right now, is certainly rough, but it is possible. In order to get the job I want I am willing to work as hard as I can, and then some. I am aware that I might be putting a little bit of pressure on myself, but that is what it is all about! By it, I mean life, and without a little pressure to succeed, succeeding will not be in the stars....

Worth It?

     Driving home from MI tonight, I became inspired by Taylor Swift's lyrics from her record Folklore . I haven't been inspired to write much in years. I wrote a Haiku yesterday in three minutes and it felt great. Poetry usually isn't my thing, but some of my creative writing students asked if I'd be their advisor for Poetry Club and I am delighted that I agreed! For the first time in nearly six years, I'm writing. Anyway, here is an erasure poem of the song "This is Me Trying" by Taylor Swift.     Worth It? I've been having a hard time adjusting  I had the shiniest wheels, now they're rusting  I didn't know if you'd care if I came back  I have a lot of regrets about that   Pulled the car off the road to the lookout   Could've followed my fears all the way down  And maybe I don't quite know what to say  But I'm here in your doorway  I just wanted you to know   That this is me trying  I just...

Oh Finals.....

Finals are slowly approaching, which means I will be devoting most, if not all, of my time to my wonderful textbooks. Studying and paper writing will be consuming my next few weeks! Perhaps I will post a paper or two that I have written when all is said and done. Look forward to reading about Anxiety and Addiction, or a paper written about the effects of tobacco and alcohol advertising and whether or not I believe it should cease to exist! I will not give my opinion on that subject away yet! Until next time here's to hoping finals go smoothly!!!

Psi Chi

Today I was inducted into the International Psychology Honor Society! When I first got the email saying because of my academic record and involvement in psychology that I was invited to join this prestigious society I was very elated, but that excitement dwindled away being that the email was received a month or so before the actual ceremony.  However, the induction today brought that feeling back, and with a risk of sounding a bit over confident, I am very proud! With only a year and a half left of my undergraduate career, I am looking forward to applying for jobs and this honor will look fantastic on a resume.  Although I have changed my major to Mass Communications with a focus in Public Relations, I am still minoring in Psychology, and perhaps will even get my bachelors in the psychology field after graduating.  Either way I am extremely humbled and proud to be a member of Psi Chi!
