Relationships

Since school has started life has changed a bit. I have lost contact with people who used to be my "bestfriends". But with that i have gained new friends. I've also come into my own you could say. I'm more confident in what kind of person i am and what kind of person i want to be.
I have excepted the fact that life changes. With each year I progress into adulthood, and with this I have matured and become a stronger person. And each year becomes a chapter in the book of my life. I and only I have the power to write my story. This being said it is my responsibility to take things with a grain of salt, and not let trivial things effect my life. Things happen for a reason. But it's not always easy just to move on from things you've become attached to. Closing the doors to my past relationships is the hardest part of switching to Global. I have lost several close relationships due to this. Not only has becoming a Global student effected past friendships, but it has also effected family life as well. My parents expect more of me and my ability to be responsible, so at times it gets stressful.

Investigating occupations

One occupation i would like to pursue is psychology. Psychology is the study of the human mind. Things like what makes it tick and what causes people to do the things they do. The psychology field I would like to pursue is Behaviorism. Behaviorism is the theory of learning that all behaviors are acquired through conditioning.

Another occupation I would like to pursue is to be an art historian. Art historians gather information about art itself as well as the artists. They are researchers, they look for answers like; When was the art created, what does it represent, and what effect did it have on history.
Last but not least I'd like to maybe be a Dental Hygienist. Dental hygienists teach people how to keep their teeth "in shape". Which interests me because dental hygiene is a big part of my everyday life.
