16. Psychology.

So the past weeks/month I've learnt a few interesting things during my psychologycareer, or whatever you wish to call it.

1. Freud was one sexual-frustrated, dirty old man with interesting thoughts I don't think any normal human being could come up with. Because, as interesting and awesome as his thoughts are...Who the fuck thinks that when you're young you're sexually attracted to your mother?...Penis envy, castration anxiety...It's just kind of odd. I'm not saying it might not be true, because as perverted as it is...He does makes some good points. But still. I still think he might have been a dirty old man. xD

2. Humans are so fucking mouldable, they don't help people in need when it's happening infront of them..if nobody else acts. So imagine, you're in a train and someone gets raped (this is true story btw)...The person gets TIED UP and four men go ahead and rape her infront of everybody. Nobody (emphasizing the word NOOOOOBOOOODYYYYYY...)did anything at first, because nobody else did anything. It's called pluralistic ignorance, difussion of responsibility, in psychological terms.
...And I'm like: Dude, what the hell? Some sympathy for the person?! At least call 911, if the train was full of people. The reapist might not see you.

3. I think I've 'fixated' in the anal stage (Freud's theory).

4. Reward me all the time, because I'll behave way way better, I promise. It's a fact called Operant Conditioning. DO NOT EVER PUNISH ME OR GET MAD AT ME! It will not help as good as giving me candy and presents. ;D

5. From now on, I tell people to do huge favours for me expecting they'll say no. When they get fucking mad at me for insisting or thinking 'WHY the hell would I do your schoolwork?', I ask them a smaller favour, like 'Ok fine, if you won't help me...Can you at least lend me five bucks?'
Note: I wanted the five bucks from the beginning.

6. The human mind is so complex. Dude, I already thought I was a complicated, annoying, 'nobody understands me'-kind of eightteen year old girl, now I'm just doubting if I'll ever see myself as a normal human being, seeing as even THEORIES and professional psychologists can't even guarantee anyone that. Yet as long as my life stays awesome as it is and I'm not the only one, I'll be fine.
