Five Idiocyncrasies

1.  Psych majors cannot read minds, but I think being exposed to psychological thought makes us adept observers.  That means, while we aren’t the absolute authorities on human behavior, we can make very good (and almost accurate) inferences on what you’re thinking based on how you act.  You see, humans are painfully predictable. For example, we can tell when you don’t mean what you say, or if you’re trying to say something indirectly (in other words, hinting).

And because of that, I can’t help thinking in psychological terms when I’m in a social situation.  I don’t know if I’m explaining it correctly, but when I notice a particular behavior from someone, I always myself why he/she does that.  Then I come up with theories to rationalize their behavior.

Of course, I keep my observations and conclusions to myself.

2.  In everything I do, I almost always have an ulterior motive.  Not all the time, but there are times when I want the things I do to benefit me in the process.  I guess that makes me selfish.  Oh well.

3.  I am a diet soda addict. Ask my friends.  There isn’t a day when I don’t drink a diet cola.  After drinking, I drink a lot of water to wash the cola taste down.  Yeah, I’m weird like that.

4.  I am very, very anal about time.  I hate it when people are late for meetings.  I hate waiting.  I hate postponing things (but I do procrastinate a lot. Like right now. Ha ha.) I myself am rarely ever late, and when I arrive late I usually have a really good reason.

5.  The surest way to piss me off (aside from being late) is to not reply to my text messages.
