Actually, I don't really remember what that song sounded like. I should listen to it again. "The Future Freaks Me Out" by Motion City Soundtrack.
There was something that my Psychology professor said yesterday that really stuck out to me. She specialized in Child Psychology, but did all sorts of stuff. Parenting, Pastoral Care, eyewitness testimonies for all sorts of events. She's so cool, I love her! Anyways, we were talking about movies & happy endings-- and how she loved them. People defended it & said happy endings made the movies seem less realistic. That's true, for some movies. But then my professor supported her statement by saying that she loves happy endings because she listened to so many gloomy stories from so many hurt people.
"You're giving a part of yourself to those people... you need to refresh yourselves somehow before you have nothing left to give. A happy ending, a fluffy cloud in the sky... I need it."
She gives up so many parts to her. Parts that include hope, love, peace. I'm still so stoked on Adolescent Psychology. I hope I succeed. I just wonder if I'll be ready to give just as much of myself when I get there.
