That day in Psychology class
This very interesting thing happened.
I didn't know what to expect at first when I took up psychology. It sounded interesting, and the college was offering, so I just took it up.
We're still at the boring part, which is the "Introduction to Psychology" chapter, so we're dozing off quite frequently. But luckily, my class includes guys who are great at changing topics, and so makes it more interesing.
The lecturer (shes a real psychologist btw) mentioned before that there is a song that she usually plays for her patients during their first sessions. Apparently it sounds like a very normal song, nothing suspicious, and if you have a generally happy kind of life, without mu.ch conflict and/or problems, chances are, you won't feel anything when you listen to it.
BUT, if you have had some sort of major conflict or suppressed memories/emotions, you will experience this whole load of feelings. She says shes had a patient who started crying uncontrollably when he heard it, and he didn't know why, and it turned out that he had some sort of surpressed memory. And there was this other time when she did that in a group, many of them started to feel restless, some had headaches and a person fell asleep instantly and wouldn't wake up.
The whole class, being naturally curious creatures (since we ARE, after all, human),, kept requesting that the lecturer test out her psychology-hypnotism...whatever you call those technique things out on us.
At first she rejected our idea, saying its against some sort of ethic code for the teacher to test these things out on students. But after our incessant whining, she finally relented, and promised that she'll bring the song in and test it out on us the next lesson.
Now I don't mind, in fact I'm really curious as to how it'll work, but at the same time, I worry.
I have a fairly normal life, I don't remember any tragic events from my childhood that require repressing.
In fact, I think the only thing that I think I've surpressed is an emotion I call my Undying Love for my fandoms. Because I obviously can't fangirl too much IRL.
And theres this little problem I have with Jrock concerts. If you must know, its when I reach the point of almost crying when I think of how much I want to go to those concerts after I watch the concert DVDs of respective bands. I don't really have this problem with my anime fandom, because there still are anime shops around here, so I can somehow satisfy (although just a little) my anime cravings. BUT THERE ARE NO JROCK STORES AROUND HERE, NOR ARE THERE ANY FANS TOO. They're all Kpop fangirls, and they make me feel lonely.
So during that day my lecturer plays the song, I'm just afraid that I'll start crying uncontrollably. I mean, it'd be so awkward if I do, and when she tries to counsel me, thinking its some sort of bad childhood memory, turns out to be this matter.
Lol, I suppose they'll think I'm nuts.
