What Are My Academic Plans? And Why Am I Always so Busy? September 2019 [Student Update]

Hello Guys! Welcome back to my blog! The past few days have been hectic and exhausting to say the least. I have just started an entire year of new academic studies and everything sort of fell into place the last minute. My academic structure of studying has changed during the previous two weeks before starting day one at Uni. So, here's what happened.

My original plans to study were taking up a course which was split into two; Psychology and Sociology. I am highly interested in Philosophy (and to be honest, i prefer Philosophy over Psychology only cause it's full of interesting theories that are very much connected with the history of the world, and that to me, is a topic I may never shut up in. EVER.) but I assumed for me to take Philosophy as a joint course with Sociology was actually too much at this point in my life as a student. I (eheh) guess I was wrong (and thank god! super excited to learn the discipline!) because the Psychology Professor -_- rejected me. It's all good...it's all good, your girl got this (jesus christ) but before selecting my preferences, I knew that I may need at least ONE backup plan just in case, you know, one of the professors decides to throw me under the bus -_,-. So the backup plan was that if the Psychology professor refuses me and gives me that 'try again next year' (which *clap clap* she did), I will have the choice to pick areas from Psychology which she CANNOT say no to. I knew that my schedule would be something which contained all three of my main interests- Philosophy, Sociology and Psychology. So, you guys know me, I had to try to fill up my schedule with one too many courses that I can take as extra (literally, until I reach the specified limit) including a language. Now the problem I am facing is...eheh, I got too many courses and classes to list down and take and let's not mention how many HOURS it took me to check if they clash and list them all down. And so, after the #struggle, I came to this.

Wow....I am appalled. Cheers to me if I actually survive this year and mind you, I have to. Because I'll be damned if I have to repeat all THAT! nuh uh, not me. The last minute changes in my schedule will affect every area of whichever field I want to work in now and these past few days were difficult for me to handle. Apologies for not replying to most of you on time and the delays in updating you on my social media but now you know of the horrors your girls has had to literally survive. My plans are to work in a job which requires much theorizing, help and presentation. What makes all of this so important to me is that I am deeply passionate about social sciences and I look to continue learning and theorizing until I am...*frowns..?..* basically like a hundred years old??...What I mean is this will be a huge importance in my life and I am willing to prioritize it over a lot of other things. My main interest is the economy and human rights so I am sure that any field of work I will do will be somewhat along those lines. I am hoping that I could actually manage all the courses I have selected this year and am ready (*to die*)to devote all I have to do the utmost best to achieve that goal.

The Electives I have chosen are:

- Understanding Research in Psychology

- Psychology of Communication

-Language of my choice

Honestly, these don't look at all like much and that's what I said too guys, that is, until I reviewed what you can see in the GIF above. #thestruggleisreal #RIP
