1) I thought psychology was mostly about the mind of a human, why we do what we do. I found out that it stems from a thought all they way to an action. Everything that happens in our body is psychology, in a sense. It has to do with our behavior, how we think, why we act the way we do, and why we have certain dreams.
2) Psychology has everything to do with life. Like I said before; our behavior, how we think, how we act, how we treat other people, and many more, are all a part of psychology. In short, everything we do has to do with psychology.
3) I learned that you can actually do experiments with psychology. You can test behaviors and mental processes and can get results.
I also learned that there is a behavior called hindsight bias. Basically it means I-knew-it-all-along behavior. I didn't know this was an actual behavior.

Hello, my name is Holly Morrison. I go to Flambeau School and am 17 years old.
I feel that I have been influenced by many things; the most recent would have to be a job shadow at the Deyoung Zoo in Wallace, Missouri. There I was able to interactive with all of her animals and it was so much fun. I've been told if I want a job I should go into the medical field, but sadly I would not enjoy working in a hospital at all. Animals are fascinating to me; my dream would be to become a zoologist and have a job. So, this visit really influenced me to just follow my dream, instead of following someone else's.
To better understand the way people think, or behave will get you far in life. I feel that to better understand your fellow man, the better you can communicate, and in almost every job you have to work with people. So the better you understand someone, the more productive and easier it will be to get something done. The quality will be better to. In the end everyone will be happy.
To me psychology is the study of the brain and all of its inner mechanisms. How we think, act, make decisions, all that is in the brain.
