It's time...

I've realized lately how naive I am to the world around me. Well i guess I've known it for some time now, but it is beginning to annoy me. I wonder if I had taken another path in life how long it would have taken me to realize this. I've come to value the education that I have been blessed with and look forward to continuing it.

I love the thought of finishing my psychology degree. I want the knowledge. Psychology is always something that has interested me. That is partly the reason I chose Psychology as my major, the other part is because I believe it ties into acting. I definitely want to finish school and get my degree, it is just a matter of when that happens. I want to be a professional actor and make a living do it. I want to make respectable art and I fully believe that I can do it.

I went off on a little tangent there, but now I am back. :)

So the point to this blog is not my passion for acting (this time). It is about my desire for knowlege. I have had the honor of being surrounded by intelligent women this past year and I long for that intelligence. I often find myself in situations in which I can't carry on the conversation or cannot make sense of what people are saying. I hate having to wonder what people are talking about. Especially this past year during the election. I actually think that was when all my desire to know started. So I did a lot of reading and talking to people and I made a decision and I stick to it today. I feel so proud of myself and I want to have those opportunites more often.

So I made a list of books I want to read and I am really excited to expand my knowledge. Hopefully soon I will have a big vocabulary and i won't have to use a word like big in this sentence. We'll see, only time will tell!
