Preparation

I've spent almost the entire day studying psychology for my finals this upcoming week! I've got a ridiculous amount of material to cover as I have learned very little in my psych classes. I attribute this to the teaching style adopted by my prof. Each student does a power point on each chapter of the book. That is our lecture. In a heavy Turkish accent, peer guided, word for word from the book. I haven't learned anything!

Luckily, my studies were quite interesting. I covered the humanistic approach to psychology and it's forefathers Carl Rogers and Abraham Maslow. I was pretty engaged in the information otherwise I would have gone nuts spending another day catching up.

Chris and I also planed a Christmas dinner. As I mentioned earlier the Christmas spirit doesn't frequent Turkey and we've all been missing its presence.
