I love:
1. Spending time with Julie Ann.
2. Trashy Reality Shows.
3. Guitar Hero.

I think although I love my journalism class the most interesting class I've ever taken period is my Interpersonal Communications class. I've learned so much stuff thats generally common sense, but crazy to hear and think about. Not just theories either, but honest to goodness life advice

Such as:

1. The things we hate about others are generally things we hate about ourselves
- and what we like in others in generally what we are not.

2. Emotions and logic do not mix. Under any circumstance.
- you cannot make a logical decision when you are emotionally aroused.

3. 58% of the time we do not listen when people are talking.

4. We play down others faults if we like them.
- if we do not like them, we exaggerate these faults.

5. First impressions are almost always wrong.
- the first impression is usually made within the first 9 seconds of meeting someone.

6. In a romantic relationship, it's very easy for our partner to +/- effect our days.
- this is usually not considered.

7. If you don't trust yourself to do something, you won't trust your partner.
- directly based on how we would act in a given situation.

8. We make judgments based on what we are capable/not capable of doing.

9. Generally, you should never discuss how may people you've slept with, with your partner.

10. Money is the number 1 cause of fights in relationships.

11. You can choose not to cheat.

12. 90% of college aged students are/were involved in a relational transgression
- (i.e. cheating) emotionally, physically or both. incrementally or incidentally.

13. Sometimes people just don't understand when the relationship is over.

14. Once their is suspicion of cheating, relationship termination should occur.
- "planting the seed of doubt"; leads to suspicion, uncertainty and mistrust.
- it is statistically proven that if you cheat once, you will cheat again.

I seriously learned some good shit in this class.
