Another semester has flown by. I was done with finals this past Tuesday. I did fine this semester academically with one class I'm upset by with my grade because the teacher sucks, but other than that things were merry in that department and my gpa is the highest it's ever been in college. Yesterday, I went to this toy sorting service thing at the Chandler Health Center. There was a roomful of toys to be sorted out to give to the kids who visit Santa at the Health Center. It wasn't bad. It just felt different from what I'm used to do with APO, because with APO if we were doing something like that, we all know each other and would have more fun together because of the fellowship aspect. Oh well c'est la vie.

One thing that has crossed my mind is that sometimes I wonder why I'm a psych major when I have strengths in other arenas, like English. I spent 5 times the amount of time studying for a psych exam and didn't really go over my compartive lit exam and got an A in the lit class. I don't get it. Growing up I was always stronger at English and humanities courses and found great joy in finding symbolism while reading literature. Perphaps it's the way my brain is wired? I want to do something with a career in which you need a psych major to do. There are certain events in my life that pushed me to study it and I feel, as corny as it may sounds, that I'm meant to do something in that field. Why can't I do a half decent job in my major after studying my ass off while I can half ass other classes and prevail in those? I feel though that I have some personal experiences with myself and have seen in others that would increase my empathy and has made me stronger as a person. Therefore, I think I would make do a good job in practice contrary to what I've shown acadmically in that subject. I don't know, I just hope everything will be ok with my life in terms of my future career. In my heart I know that I want to be a psychologist/do social service/community action projects/non-profit organization work. I guess we'll see what happens.
