Yeah, I'm supposed to do this, aren't I. . .

I'm a psych student looking for more than the cognitive pragmatism of my major.   Used to be able to manage artistic introspection on my own but I tend to lose it when trying to meet research dead lines restricted by APA format.

I'm so happy I can suck it out of all of you.  Looking forward to it.

You know, It never bothered me. MPA, APA... I mean it was like when I was learning
transcription and shorthand, and then went into pottery. I was using my hands for
something entirely different.

All day long I was using my fingers to echo other people's words, thoughts, deeds,
intentions... then when I put my fingers into the wet clay - ZINGO! - a creation of
my own, a creation which no one could fuck with, and tell me: "hey, man, I never
said that..." when I fuck all knew that what they said I wrote down.

I got good at learning grammar by hearing it misused all day long.
I got good at creating by having to puppet other people's miscreations.

APA, MPA, served to further restrict me, so that when I dropped them I flew.


Anyway, welcome to Mary. Whoever the fuck you are.

Hello. I'm with Jen, nice to hear you're a psych student. Does this mean we can get free advice?

Only if you sign a disclaimer exempting me from any resulting mental trauma.

Chris Miller won't be.   He was hoping I'd get my degree in literature.   I still might at one point, but this degree has already helped immensely with some of the things I have to deal with, and I was always a practical soul--my failing sadly.

Do you have to have emotional/mental issues to do psycology? I wonder, as everyone I know who has a degree/PHD etc in the subject, was essentially studying themselves. My ex, who now has her doctorate, studied 'social anxiety'. It seemed like a load of old balls to me, but then at the time she was studying, I was creating a fictional world soundtracked by Ian Dury where everyone spoke Esperanto. Yes, I was doing an Art Degree/going mad.

Of course, she is now teaching at a University and getting paid grants for research, whereas I am crippled by my mundane letter writing job. On the plus side, I have a beautiful little girl and she, I imagine, is still trying to work out why she feels awkward in the company of strangers.

Where did that all come from? Anyway, welcome.
