Coming Up

So, I have one week left before the next semester... I posted on my Facebook that my summer semester (which was majorly intense) yielded 5... that's right 5... A's. I have two complete semesters completed. Fall semester starts on the 30th... unbelievable. I have had to rearrange some classes, dropping one and am waitlisted on 2 others. I would love to complete (or at least take some more) the Hospitality Management courses. My ultimate goal would be to run Disney Resort in LA. Unfortunately, I can't get all the classes in right now that are required. Fortunately, I have discovered another passion - Psychology. I developed an interest in it from listening to a friend of mine and trying to comprehend her problems. Turns out I totally love this field. It helps me on so many levels... I understand people so much better, not to say myself. So, while I am majoring in Accounting, all of my electives are in Psychology. As a side note, I totally need to apologize to my friend. While trying to help, and trying to protect them, I overstepped many boundaries. I have learned that from my classes. I have learned that you have to stay objective and neutral. One of many things I have learned. While I kept many (and yes, there were many) confidences, I was unable to stay neutral, costing me my friend. I can see how hard it must be for a therapist to listen to things and not want to totally butt in. Fortunately, I am one who learns from her mistakes. I have been helping a friend of mine deal with a semi-abusive husband and am now trying to help my niece. Not to give advice, but to help them help themselves. My advice is "I can't tell you what to do... no one can, you have to figure it out yourself." Fortunately, I am good with that! I cannot control people (as much as I wish I could). I make my own fair share of mistakes so I have to learn to let others make their own mistakes. That is the only way we can learn! It seems as if I am always learning.... But I am trying to never make the same mistake twice. So -to Mei - I am sorry for interfering... it was only with the best of intentions... and I haven't made the same mistake since.... Love ya and miss you! Wishing you all the best. If it wasn't for you I never would have discovered the love of psychology.
