Social psychology = best class ever! I am loving what I'm starting to learn in this class. We're talking about "the self" and it seems like an introspective class that helps me figure out my innermost thoughts and feeling and why I think, feel, and act as I do. We talked about a concept today that I had never thought much about before. Self-regulation.
Basically, it's another word for self-control. Anyways, we're just starting to discuss goals and choices. We're talking about the "now vs. later" choices and I wish I knew if I had good self-control as a child. Researchers have done tests to show that children who have self-control tend to live better lives than those who do not develop self-control. 'Twould be interesting to see what my level of self-regulation is at this stage in my life.
You, yes you reading this blog entry, should take a social psychology class sometime. You really learn a lot about yourself, and it's a great way to learn about self-discovery. I've learned why I do a lot of the things I do; the different motivations that drives us, as a human species, to pursue our dreams. What makes us different and unique compared to other species.
Ya, I have fallen in love with social psychology. That's basically it.
