Celebrating 2023: A Month of Gratitude – Day 7

I passed my exams!!! I cannot begin to tell you how grateful I am to have achieved this! I needed to complete just 2 more subjects this year in order to graduate with my BA Honours in Psychology. I earned a distinction for one and scraped through by the skin of my teeth with the other but I will take it! A pass is a pass!

I also what to say thank you to all who have congratulated me and especially to my friend, Gayle, who went out with me to have a coffee to celebrate. Alcohol is not really my thing anymore but coffee is definitely life!

I am grateful for the privilege of being able to study a little later than most. As I mentioned in a previous post, I am a bit of a late bloomer. My curiosity around why we do what we do only became apparent to me when I joined the R&D team. My desire to learn about and understand psychological principles only became apparent to me 10 years ago. I would really love to spend the rest of my days doing tons of academic research especially around the psychology of consumerism. I suspect there is a lot to uncover as well as the mind, body and spirit connection. Watch this space…
