I've decided to start updating again.
I dont really know why I just all of a sudden decided to start updating lj again, especially since this is probably the most stressful semester I have had so far. I have 16 credits which i guess isnt horrible, but I am also working a lot and one of my classes is a service learning class so I have to volunteer for about 3 hours a week. So I'm jsut a little pressed for time and wondering where I'm going to fit life in.
As far as school stuff goes though I'm pretty happy. I've pretty much decided what I want to do with the rest of my life, and although it is kind of depressing that I will have to go through 5 years of grad school before I can even start making any money, I'm pretty sure I'll be happy with my decision. Basically I've decided to change my major back to Psychology instead of Rehab Psych becasue I just like that is going to help me get into a clinical psych grad program easier. But that also means I have to take experimental psychology next semester, which I have heard nothing but horror stories about. Lots of lab write ups and designing experiments and such, gross. But I figure that I cant just opt out of being a psych major becasue I'm afraid of one class, becasue thats just one semester, if I take that class it will bring me closer to what I want to do for the rest of my life, which is therapy of some sort. I feel like such a nerd sometimes becasue I sit in my psych classes and I am just completely in love with life and the lecture. I really feel like I have found my nitch and that makes me so happy. After not knowing what I wanted to do forever, its nice to actually be interested in something.
Things with Nick and I are still good. We're looking for a plac to live next year but havnt signed a lease on anything yet becasue we have no money at all. I have curly hair now too. Jehn gave me a perm and it looks awesome. Its not super curly hair like jen's is naturally, its more wavy. And I like it a lot and I think I look really pretty. I'll have to post a pic soon so you guys can see.
