The Book of Psychology

Psychology is kinda boring when you havta get to know all the dead people. It's even worse when all you do is to learn how to differentiate between whats a good theory and whats not.
o well, letz talk about the common myth of psychology...
For starters,EVERYBODY(well almost) thinks that you are hell of a mind-reader if u study psychology. I wouldn't deny that partial truth that it entails,but i think its utter bullshit to think that this skill is uniquely psychologists'. Unless you are a hard core anti-philanthropist or mentally derailed person who believes a whole comet of aliens are after you, everybody can be an understanding friend. In trying to understand someone( or maybe even aliens), you are trying to read someone's mind, because nobody can behave independently from the BRAIN. So i guess, everybody's a mind-reader wanabe, a psychologist wanabe. What's the big deal about being a psyhologist studyin psychology?

O please don't start thinkin that just because i'm studying about humans, my textbooks are more interesting. Cos what i'm reading now seems to be like some teach-me-how-to-write-textbook textbook. For goodness sake, take a look at a headline i'm lifting off from my text---"Organization of Chapters". Makes me wonder why in the world did i pay 30plus bucks for such an enriching book ("Perspectives on Personality"). Maybe the author is just trying to teach us how psychology is organized too...like a book!!!
how fabulous...
a human in a book!!!
