Dear Journal:
I woke up this morning thinking about Psychology and how much I love and miss studying it. It has been 10 months now since I got my Bachelor's degree and it feels great! I finally feel like I am part of something great. I feel like I did something that makes me feel happy. I learned so many wonderful things.
I was going through some old new emails this morning reading articles on Psychology, and I stumbled upon a poem that I wrote last year when I was about to take one of my last finals in order to complete my four year tenure at Brooklyn College. I am now living in Colorado and I love it here so much, but I do miss my days at the college, they were definitely unforgettable.
I remember that while I was studying for this one final, I kept thinking that through out those four years I had taken the advice of my favorite professor, and followed his advice on how to study for tests. While I was thinking of him, I came up with the poem below. Thinking of him inspired me! I took him for my introduction to Psychology class and after taking his class, I loved Psychology even more! This poem is dedicated to the best professor ever!
To: Professor Matthew Erdelyi with love.
Poem: Test Time
Test time, crunch time, stress time, book time.
I learned nothing but it's all inside. Short term memory I no longer have, long term memory a little at a time.
I'll remember something, I'll know a few things, I'll think of professor, my great professor Erdelyi....
He said I could do it regardless of age, he told me get to it don't ever regress. He believed in me when I no longer could, he took time to sit with me and told me I would....
Remember he said, just read it and learn. Remember he said the page it is on. Memorize the colors and the site where you saw it, build a mental picture and I'm sure you will know it.
I know you can do it, I know that you can! Remember how magically you will feel in the end!
I thank you my Erdelyi for teaching me all! I'll do it, I'll do it! I know that I can! I'll remember pictures and words and the meanings, I'll remember moments and jargon and dreaming!
I know that I will, I will make you real proud!
Thank you Professor Erdelyi for believing in me! I thank you forever, for standing by me!
