introduction from a psychological view point =)


Hey all, I am very religious and the way that I became the person that I have become today is b going to church all the time. Another way that I have become the person I am today was by moving around all the time. When I was in 8th grade I was home schooled, like a charter school. I had to send in all my assignments and had to be very responsible. I didn’t have any one telling time to get them done and sending them in for me. Then after being home schooled for a year I was sent to live with my aunt in Marshfield. She got up really early to go to work so that means that I had to get up on my own and catch the bus which came at 6 in the morning.  So I had to be very responsible in that way, and still today I’d have to say I’m for the most part mature and responsible as far as homework and school goes.  When it comes to school I like to learn by doing. I am a very hands on person. Another way that I learn well is by reading. I love to read.  I can’t really say I have had any social impacts. I was very sheltered as a kid. But some ways that the society impacts a kid is by peer pressure. Or the advertisements they see on TV.  Also the role models they look up to that are in Hollywood. Not very good ones to say the least, although there are some good ones too.
            I remember well when it gets repeated to me. I have the farthest thing from photographic memory. I need things to be repeated to me. I can remember places or what I have to do for a class, I can’t remember years. Like what year something happened I cant remember and that is why I’m not very good at History.  
            On reason that I think that we like the things we like is because its part of what we grew up with. If you grow up in a city you probably aren’t going to go buy a farm and start milking cows. Odds are you stay in the city and get a job there. It’s the same for a country folk. If you have lived on a farm or just out in the country you probably wont like all the stuff that’s going on in the city.
            I’m not a very physically skilled person.  I can shoot hoops but I can’t play basketball. I can’t dribble the ball and watch where I’m going at the same time. It takes a lot of coordination to do them kinds of things!! A reason that some people might be good at such sports as these is cause they practice and are born with coordination. Coordination is not something that you go to bed praying for and then wake up with. Its somewhere in your blood line and genetics.
