My so called FRIENDS

My so called friends?
I guess it would be safe to say that I have many friends. But right now, I've entered a new atmosphere, I mean a new school so I have gained my so called new friends. We're all 7 including me. Every time were all together, we all just love to laugh. Laugh out loud! We would tease each other, laugh at each other and sometimes talk about problems but were not use to crying. :) In our group, the almost all of them has "partners", but me, very much single! But then I don't regret being single, I could spend more time on them, throw out jokes on them and even a shoulder to cry on when they have problems.

Before, I use to believe in the saying that "friends come and go", but right now I've erased in on my mind. Your friends come because you also come, but they won't go or ran away if you go. Instead, they would for wait for you. . .

My so called friends. :)

What's with my name?

My name is Michelle.
Why Michelle?

My dad had always been wishing for a baby boy. So he thought while my mom is pregnant, she was bearing a son. A month or two while she was pregnant, my dad had to go abroad, due to a certain reason, WORK. That time, cellphone/s was not yet on the look out. The only thing that my mom was using for communication is through the telephone. My dad would approximately call at all times just to make sure that she was doing good and is in good health even if she's alone and on the family way. Sometimes, my dad would be asking her to put the phone near, even closely to her tummy for the reason that, he wants to talk to me. Well, that's according to my mom. :) And she also added that my dad was even more excited than her.

Days, nights and months are sudden, and I'm coming out! My dad would again always call to remind my mom that if a baby boy comes out, he must be named, Michael because that's his name. But then something just went out wrong, a baby girl came out and that was me! :) My mom can't do anything, so instead of naming me Michael she named me Michelle. Michelle, the pretty girl :) . ( hahaha!) So that's it, even if I'm not a boy, even if my name is Michelle and not Michael, my parents still loves me, and loved me even more .

Why I chose this course?

Why I chose psychology?

Since I was kid, I've always been dreaming to become a doctor. Not a medical doctor but a psychiatric one. I use to tell my dad, that's what I really want to be. I find this course very interesting not just because this is my passion, also because i really love to talk. But then, till now my mom would always tell me this "it's better that you become a nurse, so you can marry a doctor someday" funny, right? Still, i chose what i really want, and it made me really happy.

Psychology (from Greek ψyχή, psykhē,"; and -λογία, -logia) is an academic and applied discipline involving the scientific study of mental functions and behavior. Psychologists study such phenomena as perception, cognition, emotion, personality, behavior, and interpersonal relationships. Psychology also refers to the application of such knowledge to various spheres of human activity, including issues related to everyday life (e.g. family, education, and employment) and the treatment of mental health problems. Psychologists attempt to understand the role of these functions in individual and social behavior, while also exploring the underlying physiological and neurological processes. Psychology includes many sub-fields of study and applications concerned with such areas as human development, sports, health, industry, media, and law. Psychology incorporates research from the natural sciences, social sciences, and humanities.


Right now, I'm still in my first year. I still be needing 3 years more! To become and to fulfill my passion. However, when I close my eyes at night, i can only think of this "moms knows best" then I would cry. But at the end of the day, i can see in her eyes that she's happy for me. I know someday that she will be proud of me, because i had made the right decision for myself and for my future.
