BEAR!!! SO GLAD that you're STILL HERE!!! So are you coming back to Singapore SOON?? Hope you'll put your studies to some good use in here after you've graduated??Originally posted by Bear:haha~ Devil, we are all living in denial.. heheh~ just to be sure that we are not worse off than other people.. because we are in a society that cannot weaklings... Problems = weak = inferior... if let other know that we have a problem, we will still try to cover up by saying that we know how to solve it somehow.. hehe~ That's just human nature, especially when we are in a society that cannot accept failures and mistakes.
Well, I do have my problems like how am I going to get into graduate school to start on with my MA in Cognitive psych or I'm more interested in doing a PhD in cognitive psych directly after my BA. There's just a lot of work to do, and it means that I need to score 'A's for all my classes from now, which I'm not making the mark, at least till so far..
Then there's the problem with my r/s life too.. how to maintain a soon to be long-distance r/s. just that my gf is from another country, and we'll soon be parting with our BAs in a year's time. Even if we don't part, how are we going to stay together, and where shall we settle down in the end?? Problems that I cannot really solve, without her agreement, even with it, the finer details still needed some tuning, which I really have no idea what or where I'm heading... =)
Well, these are the things that's going on my mind at the moment... =)
Stress? Strange enough I no longer feel much stress now... Sometimes I still complain of stress but deep down inside.... NOTHING much. Think I'm fast becoming more and more like a Devil. Used to be afraid as I feel less and less. The CHANGES. Now?

Thanks. Being a moderator in here has nothing much to congratulate about. It's just a job. Some time ago some chaos were in here. Without much moderation, it's a pity to see this place go to a waste.
Well sad to say, I may not be of much help in the future. Although I may be touching on the general psych on the surface, I learn that my interest is no longer about counselling, but to study how our mind works... =) Well, if people are looking to score 100% on their test, I could help a little, but not for telling them how to feel better etc etc... =)
Let me just post this question back.. How are you??
I think you're just being modest. Let me be FRANK with you. Your 'contributions' now as compared to before are totally DIFFERENT. Getting your facts right and the level of maturity in replies. It's a pity counselling is no longer your cup of tea. Though I'm not really that surprised, people do change. Afterall, it's a PRACTICAL world out there.
YUP... After having been through your course of studies... You might be pretty amazed how 'fake' this world can be in its appearance.... And the way majority of the people choose to think and believe... Sometimes you just won't know to laugh or to cry...?Originally posted by Bear:Devil1976:
Thanx for the compliment dude... =)
I was just thinking of putting what I have learnt and collated so far to good use, and prevent some speculation on things that are not all that true. Nowadays I usually only say things that have been supported scientifically. Matured?? maybe not... because we can't have matured content here, as some of our readers underage.. heheh~
Yupz can't agree more I guess, especially how rumors can kill people. I just want to find out the truth about things, and dismiss all the silly old-wife tales. Well, that's how it was found that kissing will not result in pregnancy long time ago.. ehhehe~ =)Originally posted by Devil1976:YUP... After having been through your course of studies...

I'm currently more interested in memory, in ways that we would learn better. It is commonly known that when you get older, you will tend to have poorer sense of direction and poorer memory. I got to find out the reason behind it. Doctors are selling pills at $10+ each to help improve the brain but all it needed is a $1 plate, and the elderly can remember to take their meds and remember where they place their glasses.. That's what is inspiring me at the moment. Investigate, research and discover... =)
