Psychology

Among tons of fields of studies, people choose business, accounting, laws, chemistry, computer science, but I chose Psychology, a challenging and fascinating field of study.
"What are you going to do with Psychology, to read people's minds?" You might ask.
But for me, it's because I am able to learn people as well as myself to see the world from different perspectives rather than just one single point of view.
Sadly, people tend to attribute others' behaviors by judging their personality but do they whether or not think about the person's past experiences, biological conditions, cognitive monitoring skill?
Depositional Attribution changes my mind to interpret different circumstances.
People tend to blame others' bad fortune to convince themselves the world is just and peaceful in order to protect themselves from vulnerability, homeless people are just innocent to be blamed that way, they don't deserve to be treated that way, we are human beings, not just the kind of creatures who are always provoking hateful and hideous stuff that makes people start hating each other and end up being aggressive.
Just-world hypothesis teaches me a lesson.
There are still lots of interesting theories and statements left in my passion for Psychology.
Psychology for me is not just a social science which teaches you how to know what others' thinking are or what happening to their minds are. Psychology is the way to let myself to be myself and help people to be themselves.
I have an excruciatingly growing background, conflicts between parents, bullying issues.
But I am tough enough to be overcoming each obstacle I've been through because I have a huge passion for my life.
Now, I succeeded.
I'm in Canada to keep chasing my dream, I have lots of amazing friends who keep supporting me unconditionally.
Life doesn't just contain complaints, sometimes it needs to be filled by happiness and dreams that have been motivating you to keep living.
