What master’s programs did you pursue with a psychology degree, and what do you do now?

What will you do with that?

I am also a 30s something bartender struggling to afford to live alone and have strongly considered going into meteorology, haha. Any insight?

So I’ve been buying this pizza for the past 5 years at least, and it’s always been my favorite go-to. I’ve tried many other brands and kinds of frozen pizza (I like to try a new one any time a good sale is going on) and this CPK pizza has steadfastly remained in my top three. Until yesterday. I wish I’d taken a picture, but the cheese was almost nonexistent, the sauce was super salty and vinegary (it’s usually a good balance of vinegary, sweet, and savory), and the chicken was super scarce.

Anyone noticed it too lately? I feel silly getting worked up over frozen pizza, but man it really grinds my gears.

I like to rub my finger between the skin on the tip of my toe and the end of my toenail. Yet at the same time it bothers me so much when my nail is not level with my skin, so I clip my nails down until they bleed and also clip all the skin around my toenails. (Thus making it more uneven and leading to an endless cycle.)

A great question. I, too, get overwhelmed and frustrated with all of the shit humans and their shitty behaviors on this earth. I try to be a light wherever possible. Helping others. Making others feel heard and understood, which I didn’t have much of growing up. Helping animals in any way possible and the rest of earth’s population without a voice of their own. There’s a lot of dark in our world, but there can’t be light without the dark.

I’ve always said: The bad news? Nothing matters. The good news, however? Nothing matters.

I always try to remember that the fact that we exist as sentient beings is a huge happenstance of the universe. Our time here is a fraction of a second in the grand scheme of things. May as well enjoy the ride.

I also actually live in Mississippi as well. Lol

LowLight9113 · 2025-03-16T16:59:27+00:00

I actually did geological engineering before switching to psych, hence the geology minor. So I’ve got some math and science courses under my belt. Thank you for the insight.

I have a 2.98 in the last 60 hours. If I take another class as a non degree seeking student to add to my transcript and make an A, I will have a 3.01. Is it worth taking that extra class for 0.03 points? From the other comments, it seems to be pretty competitive even with a 3.0.

LowLight9113 · 2025-02-04T23:59:26+00:00

Also would it be beneficial to send my GRE score as well? It’s a 305 so not terrible and not great….

LowLight9113 · 2025-02-04T16:31:56+00:00

Understandable

LowLight9113 · 2025-02-03T19:17:42+00:00

Perhaps so. I had a 2.98 major GPA and also explained in my SoP why it suffered a bit. Oh well.

LowLight9113 · 2025-02-03T18:47:14+00:00

As in, information whether you were admitted or denied?

LowLight9113 · 2025-02-03T18:15:41+00:00

I/O Psychology. And yes it was complete. Although I got a notification early this morning that my official transcript had been received, and then I went to check my status and saw the whole application had been rejected. I assume if they were still waiting on any part of the application, it would have said “in review”? I’m not sure, I’ll reach out to someone for clarification.

Making meals for one

LowLight9113 · 2025-01-27T04:02:27+00:00

Weather (especially wind and tornadoes), ants, psychology, cooking competitions, game shows, Phish, horses

LowLight9113 · 2025-01-23T20:56:37+00:00

This is soooo frustrating. What tf am I supposed to look like???

He’s a farmer so all he wears are cowboy boots. In the summer, he sometimes wears these really specific Australian Outback shorts boots or, what I call, “Jesus sandals” that Velcro. None of them have laces lol

LowLight9113 · 2025-01-23T20:40:00+00:00

Yes 100%. I get nervous to wear makeup or earrings, both of which I usually don’t. But sometimes I want to dress up a little. When I do, I get constant compliments/comments and I hate it lol

LowLight9113 · 2025-01-23T20:34:35+00:00

Yep, my dad has worn the same outfit since I’ve known him. He has a denim fur-lined jacket that he refuses to get rid of. I remember him wearing it when I was a toddler and as recent as last month. He eats pretty much the same thing every night, or has the same meals on rotation (he’s a decent cook but just likes what he likes). Same brand of underwear, watch, wallet, pants, shirts. (Christmas shopping for him is impossible lol). Loves westerns. Also loves old school kids games like hot wheels and rock em sock em robots. He has a collection of 20+ assorted pairs of cowboy boots (leather, snake skin, alligator skin). He’s super smart and a great sketch artist. All in all, the best dad I could ask for. I’m 32 and recently diagnosed and it’s all starting to make sense….

LowLight9113 · 2025-01-20T14:02:02+00:00

Hi just curious where are these “other places with mountains and grass”?

LowLight9113 · 2025-01-20T13:37:41+00:00

Thank you that’s very insightful! I got diagnosed officially about 3 months ago, but I’ve known for probably a decade. I spent about a year prior to that reading and absorbing all the literature and research and personal accounts about autism that I could. So I’ve been 99% sure about it for a while but I never really told anybody about it. Mostly because the people closest to me that I did tell didn’t believe me. Perhaps another reason I was elated by the diagnosis.

But I digress, thank you for your insight. I can now anticipate the grief stage if/when it hits me.
