I loved it when I took a psychology corse called Personal Psychology. Because it was a college course we didn't go into specific details about ourselves to the whole class. We were asked to keep a journal and taught how to do such things as brainstorming, problem solving skills andhow to locate services in the community. We had homework where we had to use a personal experience as practice in learning what we were taught in the class. But talking about that homework and what we learned about ourselves was on a volluneer basis. One of our homework assignments was to bring something in the to the next class that would explain and or show the class who we are. I asked my boss, therapist, a co worker and a friend to write down three sentences of who they think I am and then I put those three sentences by each person into a poem and then concluded with who I thought I was first answering what others see in me and then answering what I saw in myself. Getting up in front of the class for this assignment was manditory. It was a really cool class.
