Hello Deviant People.
I thought I would update my journal on my current life.

~!*College*!~
In the previous online class session I took Lifespan and Educational Psychology.  I got an 89.67 in Lifespan (due solely to the final) and a 97.82 in Educational Psychology (the highest in the class).  In both classes I received positive remarks from my teachers.  Even from my classmates I received comments such as: "Your post always breakdown the information so well.  I learn a lot from you.  I would be honored if you were a teacher to my kids."  

~!*Below are the comments from my teacher to my discussion posts in Lifespan*!~
• Discussion on Egocentrism in Adolescence:
• "Kody, in just these few short weeks of getting to know you in class, I think this is you: "There are painters who transform the sun to a yellow spot, but there are others who with the help of their art and their intelligence, transform a yellow spot into sun"― Pablo Picasso"
• Discussion on Leaving Home and Age of Maturity:
o "How old are you?  I think you are a very old soul in terms of the unfolding of the universe.  With your wisdom at your age, you have been around for a while."
• Discussion on "Midlife as "Over the Hill" or "Prime of Life":
o "I am selfish, but I hope you are going to be a teacher; a teacher of psychology at that. I appreciate your way with words.  You are a modern day Plato.  "The other day a man asked me what I thought was the best time of life.  "Why," I answered without a thought, "now.""-David Grayson".  Now is all we have.  We can remember the past and think of the future, but NOW is all we got."

~!*Plans*!~
Next session will be the last session.  I'm going to be taking my Psychology Capstone and Adult Psychology (with the same teacher from Lifespan).  I cannot wait to graduate from Columbia College.  
I still plan to go to Graduate school for either:
• Industrial Organizational Psychology
• Educational Psychology
• Social Psychology
Currently I cannot decide between the three, but I/O Psychology has careers that include the other two.

~!*Artistic Projects*!~
Due to college I have been slow on keeping up with my art related work, but I am:
• Currently I am creating a piece for my mother for Mother's Day.  I want to make a piece that includes: my father's and her high school class rings; their profiles from high school; and the lyrics from their favorite songs.  
• I am also working on a story.  So far I have developed the characters, settings, and milestones.  I have finished writing up two chapters, but I want to have five complete chapters before I post anything.

Well I better go.  I still have work to do.

See ya,
Kody
