Ok so yeah... I've been posting a lot recently. and it hasn't exactly been happy. But with the exception of my biblical quotations... it's been straight from my mind to the page. So i'm sure you can get a good idea about what kind of stress and stuff i've been under recently.
I've put a lot of thought into trying to back track and make up for all this lost time. But after the reading assignment I finished in my theories book, I don't feel like that would really matter. Despite the subtle cries for help in my recent writings... tonight more than ever in the last few weeks I finally feel like things are going to be ok. Maybe I shall be so bold as to exclaim a B life tomorrow... maybe.
Confession : My dedication to my studies and my efforts to keep up in my homework have failed... in accordance with prophecy. These journals that all you people got to read for a while and then suddenly I dropped off the face of the earth (figuratively... i think) I'm hopeing will return. Now at least that I think i've found the "Motive".
So Dr. C assigned us to read a portion of our text book for class and write a little bit about it. Lo and behold what do I read but "[Adler] analyzed [his patients] personalities by examining their writings." So I totally fell like a lab rat. But what can I say. I might as well entertain the brain of my professors... though I feel guilty because I have been neglecting my writings and withdrawing my brain from the study. However the claims to studying patients writings was not the entirety of our reading. Adler theories extended into the analysis and manipulations of patients dreams, early memories, and the psychological significance of birth order. Birth order you say?! Yeah for all you first borns out there... chances are you are concerned with power and authority, score higher on measures of acheivement (ex:IQ tests), and (unfortunatly) tend to be more dependant and suggestible.
