Back to blogging soon :)

Well long time no see! The reason for my prolonged absence is because i have been working on my OU Psychology course and it's really important to me. Sadly more than blogging.

I am pleased to report that so far i have passed 3 of my assignments and i am in the process of completing my final one for this course. *Phew* Next year i have chosen to take on two more courses (can you tell i really want that degree?)

I have begun to learn about so many interesting things that i thought i would share one with you, mind you knowing my luck you already know!  :)

I have discovered the wonder that is Phineas Gage, and the whole story about him has really gained my interest. To make it more fun i have included a fun song about him that i discovered on Youtube. He was a true medical miracle, through an accident at work a huge metal rod pierced through his head, and maybe obviously...his brain. I guess from what i have read that one of the main reasons doctors discovered they could operate safely on the brain was due to his injury. Anyway i don't want to bore you to death but i just thought i would let you all know what i am getting up to at the moment.

Discovering Psychology & Brownies

Sorry for the two days with lack of posting. If i'm truthful i couldn't think of a subject worth blogging about.

Today though i was filling out my OU forms and thought i would blog a little bit about the course i am taking and my hopes for the future.

In November all going well i am starting the OU DSE141 course in Discovering Psychology. I have always thought that it's never too late to better yourself and learn something new. I'm aiming high as i want the end result to be a BSc (Honours) in Psychology.

To give me a bit of a start and to get my brain working along the right lines i have been reading two fairly informative and helpful books.One is Basics in Psychology and the other is Manwatching a field guide to human behaviour. The Basics in Psychology has some little tests to do at the end of each chapter which is ideal for me to help get what i'm reading to sink in.

Are you a mature student? Do you wish you could go back and study something you're interested in?

Oldest daughter struck again today and made some delicious white chocolate brownies so i thought i would show a piccy of them. She has the potential to make a great chef one day..and i'm not just saying that because i'm her mum. Well...ok maybe i am.

The song for this evening is The Who - Behind blue eyes.
