NELLE TURD (self-discovery) adventure
@ University fair downtown.
Zain: So Ellen… What program are you going into?
Ellen: (confidently says) Cognitive Science. (smiles)
Later…
(In Queens seminar)
Man: So if you would like to take computing, you would study courses like the following… engineering, blah blah, COGNITIVE SCIENCE, blah blah, and basically learn about robotics and the psychology of the computers and mathematics….
(mouth drops wide open while Zain and Stanley looks at me in bewilderment of the course that I am taking)
Ellen: WHAT THE HELL….that’s not cognitive science?!?!
Zain: Ellen.. did you even read about the course before deciding on it?
Ellen: No.
(Zain laughs at the stupidfied Ellen, and she tips head in shame while half hiding in the handout books)
Crap, Irene was right.
Damn, she’s always right about these things.
But don’t worry, I redeemed myself. I found the PSYCHOLOGY (BA) course at York, the one that I’M SUPPOSE to decide on, just thought it was called cognitive science, but yes. I’m gonna take psychology at York, and become a PSYCHOLOGIST!! WHOOO HOOOOO

My potty stories?!
Needless to say, I really didn’t get much work done today. I am so stuck.
hey ellen, it’s helen from church! I subscribed to you a long time ago! Cognitive science DOES sound interesting, until you find out you have to take all these horrible courses! Psych at york sounds like a great idea =)
