Psychology, Where A + B = Whatever You Want

Mariah (Roommate): calling psych a "soft science" okay right?

Me: Soft science is not a great term
subjective science is better

Mariah: I've always heard it's soft because it was subjective while physics is "hard" because a+b will equal c

Me: It makes sense, but it's still strance

Mariah: where in psych a+b could equal square

Me: This is true

Mariah: I guess I'm around to many people in the "hard" sciences
didn't know if "soft" was a put down or not

Me:  a+ b = 9046.3. As long as you do your research and your numbers properly, and it can be backed up.
However, someone else could say that A + B = dog.

Mariah: XD

Me: So then there are two ideas for A and B but neither one of them really answer the entire question.
and combining the two won't do either, because they would leave huge explinational holes.

Mariah: you rock


Me: so then, an entirely NEW idea is proposed, which stated that A + B = the opposite of whatever Freud said, and it's all a nature vs nurture thing
but still no answer.

Mariah: aaaaaaaaaand you just helped me with my paper

My Face

I hate my skin. The red dots need to leave. Like now. I'm almost into my second decade of life, I STILL HAVE FREAKING ZITS ON MY FACE!!! WTF?!?!

I don't get it. WWWWHHHHYYYYYY?!?!!

I feel Like Sharing My Life With the World.

I've been watching a lot of youtube videos with Danisnotonfire, Charlieissocoollike, and a new-to-me youtuber, Jacksgap.

I REALLY want to do a video, but I have NO IDEA what to talk about. I feel like my videos would have a lot of awkward silences in them, with absolutely nothing of interest to anyone.  So any suggestions would be nice.  I could do a couple of my rants on guitarists, and gun control.  Those two subjects are not related. Just saying. On a side note, I'm cold. I'm colder in my parent's house in Phx. than I am in my apartment in Flagstaff.  Because that makes sense. I could take suggestions of what to play on my violin. That would be pretty fun. Just play a bunch of stuff. Like some stuff from Firefly, LotR, Harry Potter... Yes please.

Ocean's 11 is on TV right now. I approve most highly. This movie is amazing. "Unless we intend to do this job in Reno, We're in Barney!" ". . . .' "Barney Rubble.  TROUBLE!"

So let's go get that pinch.

On another note, I want to go to the library today, so if you could comment with your favorite book, or just a book you think I need to read, that would be great.  I've got a nice list going right now.  Perhaps I can grab some food stuffs while I'm out for tomorrow's parties.  I'm going to two christmas parties tomorrow. One of them involves a violin. And the exact same arrangements for Christmas songs as I've been playing for at least 12 years.  The next party is with some friends from highschool. I haven't seen most of them in a long time. I'm looking forward to that.

Here, Have a Shot of Mint

Nancy: How many people DON'T own the Harry Potter books?

Me: The ones who don't own them.

Nancy: ......... Dang it, I can't contradict you because it's right.

My Sister, Ladies and Gentlemen

Your Nerd Is Showing.......

This library is the best thing ever.  I just spent at least an hour and a half walking around and nerding out over all the amazing journals and periodicals they have. There's an entire bookshelf dedicated to the spine. Another three for cancer research. About 4 or 5 for vasculature and the heart.  I had to curb my impulse to jump up and down and squeal for joy. I even found a shelf dedicated to the violin!!! This library has made me absolutely ecstatic, and I seriously wish I could nerd out with a fellow library-dweller. <3

On another note, today I had my anatomy lab final, and my french oral final. The lab final went pretty well, I think. Pretty sure I missed a couple, but I knew most of the exam.

The the french oral final was hilarious.  The prompt my partner and i got was to talk about our plans for the weekend, and include talking about our relationships with people. (Friends, co-workers, romantic relationships)  What we did was take this, and turn it into a soap opera type thing. Here's the translated version of our skit: (Please note that I have a fictitious boyfriend in this sketch)

         Her: Want to come to my party this weekend?

         Me: Absolutely! who will be there?

         Her: a couple friends I invited, your boyfriend David......

         Me: sounds fun! Is there anything you want me to bring?

         Her: YES! Apples to apples, deck of cards, twister.... Oh, can you bring some food?

         Me: yea, I think David is goi-

         Her: David? =D

         Me: Yes... I think he's going to make some food =. Pizza or spaghetti. Which would you like?

         Her: BOTH! And You should show up about 2 hours before the party starts so I can eat all your food.

         Me: -_- you're horrible.

         Her: yup! My goal is to be the worst hostess EVER. =D

         Me: a worthy goal. So when do you want us to show up?

         Her: about 7. Bring your boyfriend. He is so, so sexy.

         Me: yes. And he's MINE. Not yours.  But he'll be there.

         Her: Excellent.

         Her: So, on a scale of 1 to 10, how healthy is your relationship....?

         Me: -_-  *holds up left hand, showing off a ring on the third finger*

         Her: oh...... awkward.......

We had way too much fun writing this script.
