2nd year college mess
July 27th, 2006 by kurt-jumpman23
hey wats up bloggy?
i havent written for a long time na…
blogging=exhibitionism? Not necessarily. I think its a way of displacing and subliming unexpressed emotions here on the net. It is normal for humans to have this defense mechanisms, or else, my anxiousness would result to a psychological illness. yeah ryt.
So how am i doin? how did I fare in my second year?
If you ask me? Not good. Uhhmm! Naaa!
Upperclass students had warned us already about this. Psychological statistics is the first of the most dreaded courses/subjects in the psychology program in UPcebu. If you cant pass it, goodbye UP! huhuhuhuhuhuhu….
I mean hey! With respect for my mathematical abilities and capacities, a simple set of data should be calculated,described and interpreted in about 40 minutes? I mean should get the Mean, Median,Mode, Standard Deviation, Variance, Skewness, Kurtosis, SIR, CV, etc etc…. I think I understood the first chapter of this subject, but I think I came up short in finishing the 100+ long exam. I mean, the exam was to be finished for only 3 hours! Kulang ra au! My hands are sweating like a melted ice!
Now what, several hours ago, we had a quiz about Z-scores or should I say Standardized Scores… and I got a 2/17… The lowest score ever in my college life! The discrepancy is that big! Never pa jud oi. hahay..
I am starting to like my course now. Why? with the help of Psych 150 ( personality ), I am getting to know myself more. That I should rid of masks. That I should not be influenced by others. Psych 108 ( Indigenous Psych) is a kind of course with a political flavor injected in it. And you know I like Politics. Come in the afternoon, all my happiness fades away.
What is the purpose of this 5-unit course? So that we would learn how to Utilize the raw data being gathered on Psychological Processes, so that these processes will be considered SCIENTIFIC and valid.
Hey, its just the start of hardship and I’m losing hope. I dont wana leave this program.
I HOPE I’ll pass. I hope I could figure out what’s wrong within me. I hope I could figure out how to study in this program with the objective not just to pass the subject but to be really good at it.
At the same time, I don’t want my schedule to be FULLY INDULGED in the academics. Im just human. I wana have fun.
There may be people out there who thinks that I’m just exaggerating. That’s your own perception. But I’m not. I"M STRUGGLING….. somebody help me.
p.s. this post does not criticize a person or any entities. it’s just a way of fighting uneasiness.
