About Me

My photo
I am in my 20's and a passionate student, majoring in Psychology. I was born and brought up in Germany, moved around about 4923 times and recently moved in with my lovely boyfriend Mr. Bubbles (no that is not his actual petname), who affectionately shares the space in my green Bubble.

I am a raging, almost melodramatic observant, who picks up on body language and gestures like no other. I love to spending my days out and about and observe anything that comes my way, just so I can report it to whoever is around me.

What are the similarities between sausages and apples?

Interrresteeenggg [Roll the "r", drag the "e" and pronounce the "g" as "k" and you've got it right ^^*]. 

I'd obviously much rather lie at the beach in Bali and paint my nails than write my introduction ... which I STILL haven't reached halfway mark for ... Yes, I don't even know where the halfway mark is anymore. For regular lab reports of ~2000 / 4000 words I will write beautifully crafted introductions that take me about 5 new revamps ... complete revamps, with 5x blank pages and 5 back-to-square-one's and 5x the confusion ... all obviously in the span of 1 week [streeesss]. I anticipated this with my thesis as well ... except, the entire introduction is as long as 1 bloody lab report ... and it has occured [I believe this currently is my intro number 6 or 7]. But that's ok. By now, if my revamping actions don't occur I actually think the assignment is bad and something must be wrong with it haha. I have gotten so used to my odd ways of writing things ... It's hilarious. 
Anyhow, so part of my beautifully crafted introductions = an undisturbed flow of information. Oneee idea flooooows to the neeeexttt and the nexxxt and the nexxxxttt ... Yes. That's until I had to write this thesis. For about a week and a half now I have been trying to DESPERATELY link neuropsychology / hemisphere stuff with bloody situation models. It's like trying to point out the similarities in sausages and apples. Exactly, MISSION IMPOSSIBLE!

So this morning I came to the brilliant realization [no giggles, please] that I was only ever able to write such beautifully crafted introductions, because I only ever looked at 1 thing in my short lab reports ... i.e.: analyze apples. The designs were only ever a 2x2 (interaction between 2 variables and 2 variables) or a 1x2 (or 1 v and 2v) or what not ... Now that my design is a 2x2x3 (the interaction between 2v, 2v and 3v *WAH*), I can't possible write it quite as smoothly. There HAS to be a cut in my topic at some point to introduce a different topic i.e.: the sausages.

Time for some minor revamping again, but I believe that this realization has just solved my problem ... after a week and a half [time that I actually didn't have]. *fingers crossed* Let me see how it works out.
