So do psychology students work as hard there as they do here? The ones I know seem to spend their entire life studying...

Well, I've finished the psyc part of my course for now. (theres those words again) but I seem to recall not doing much. Theres just a whole bunch of theories

It's the actual experiments I liked

But it's almost to true to be funny

What I sometimes miss with my childhood, is the feeling of security and knowing it all that you can only have as a kid.

Then you grow up and learn that we can't know almost anything at all...

We can choose beliefs like religion or other life philosophies...we can choose to believe in absolute truths...but we have to accept that the human mind, the human knowledge and the human understanding of things is limited.
But I prefer being an adult by far...now I can make my own choices to a much larger extent

And life hasn't lost the sense of total awe - I'm still ridiculously easily fascinated by lots of things

I must be the most immature psychologist on the Northern Hemishere (Veh holds the title for the Southern Hemishere, of course

)

With pride!

Actually CE, I think your natural questioning and easy to fascinated qualities are probably what makes you a good psychologist. I wouldn't want to know anyone who isn't naturaly fascinated by things... probably accountants

(no offense to any accountants out there of course

).

I had a good childhood. Enjoyed myself, but like CE, I enjoy where I am now. But, I've always enjoyed where I am in my life. At 10, I enjoyed being 10, at 17, I enjoyed being 17, and now at 21, I love being 21

It hasn't been a walk in the park, but I've enjoyed it! No regrets... because I believe even those things I didn't do, I've learnt from them and to grasp the things I can do when I can. Gotta love that whole learning thing

21 years down, another whole heap to go!

Unless Grunty's bus hits me tomorrow of course

I'm also very happy of my NOW and i'm always been. And i agree that we have to learn a lot from what we've done and also from what we've not done.....
I think the most important thing is believing in what you do, not doing something just because someone tells you to. When i was a child i was very happy with my absence of problems and to people i seemed a boy without the power to endure in the future.....they said that at the first difficult thing i'd have melt like ice under the sun and everyone had the perfect solution.....well that's not because i only do things in which i really believe. I decided to become a medicine doctor because i felt (and i feel) that this is my future and i have become a psychiatrist; i have decided to involve myself in a band because i firmly believe in the music we do...and i have a lot of satisfactions from fans and people organizing concerts all over Europe.....
And all these things are related with every moment of my past....and so of my childhood.
But it's good being 27 (within a few months....)

PS: and yes.....i'll be the most immature psychiatrist in the middle part of the world!!!!

I would go back to first grade, to my first girlfriend Amy. (if anyone flames me, they will be, hunted down and put though a woodchipper. Sprayed out into the ocean, never to be found.)

Of course, we have to assure the fundaments of our profession and our income

I'm a psychologist, but I work exclusively with research at the moment. Veh is a psychology student, and Edwin is a medical doc specialising in psychiatry. We are the guardians of mental health at SYM

I think that sounds extremely interesting!!! And now my lab is up again, so now I could put you through an MRI and a PET

I wonder what your serotonin receptors would look like - if you have any left?

It's the unknown that fascinates me

But probably our chemists can't even begin to decode the unknown substances in your brain

But don't worry, your handsome looks and nice personality will make up for the lack of brain
