Intro

Hello. If you're on this blog, my guess is that you know me, but I will introduce myself anyways. 

I'm Jaimee. With two E's, weird but I love it. I am a sophomore this year at the University of Denver and I wish I knew what I'd like to do what my life. Maybe this blog will help me get a better idea...? I've gone back and forth between so many things. At any point in time, I've wanted to be a teacher, a social psychologist, and now maybe something involving marketing? Hopefully something to tie in my business and psychology degrees. It could be different at any given moment. I love being at school though (generally) because I feel like I'm learning invaluable information every day. 


I like to think of myself as a compassionate person. I care about others, but I have a hard time showing it at times. If I were to live up to my expectation of myself, I think I would try more to help others, but I have a habit of doing things for selfish reasons. That being said, I love people. I care about people and I truly do my best to not hurt others. I love seeing people happy. Unlike some of the members of my family, I'm not terribly outspoken. This is probably one of the reasons why my favorite book is The Perks of Being a Wallflower. I love to observe people more than anything and just see them interact, rather than inserting myself into every conversation. That being said, I can be incredibly talkative once I really get to know people. That's probably a good way to gauge how comfortable I feel around you. 


I recently went to a guest speaker for my management class who claimed that it was absolutely essential to have an "internet presence." I don't know how much I believe in that, but I do think blogging would be a good use of my time. I do truly love writing and I think I could always use an outlet to get my thoughts out. Plus I could really use to break my Netflix addiction. 


This blog will be devoted to connecting social psychology to my everyday experiences. Psychology is the one thing I'm truly fascinated by. My friends who are studying biology say that they like to see how things work. Well I absolutely love seeing how people work. Social psychology helps me learn so much about myself and why I do the weird things that I do.
