Recently the debate of pro vs. anti RxP has come up in Psychology, and has been picking at my brain quite a bit. I say that I aspire to be a Psychology major, but the deeper and deeper into the study of the field I dive, I am just plain terrified. The amount of BIO, I think I could manage, but if actually want to make something of yourself you are going to spend a good amount of your schooling studying pharmacology. Maybe that is just me, feeling like I have to do a certain thing. There are plenty of other things you can do that don't require those studies, but what if I'd want to do those things? Am I just telling myself I do not have the determination to wear a white coat, and work in a lab? Or do I know it's just not the place for me? And what if there is another passion I have not yet thoroughly explored? What if I find a missing link to my life next year? There is so much to still be discovered, and I find it such a shame to be limiting ourselves to one certain thing when we are all so talented, and have so many things we could our brains to use as.
I think that a movie I saw just recently also brought back about a million and five feelings. Toward my dearest Ralph, and Henry. There is just something about that damned essay that i fall in love with time and time again. "Your genuine action will explain itself, and it will explain your other genuine actions. Your conformity explains nothing." Can it get more perfect than that?

amen. i couldn't agree more.
