Final Assignment/Requirement in PSY 1
I – Introduction:
These are remarkable times for psychology. In summary, scientific breakthroughs concerning the biological, emotional, cognitive, and social basis of normal and abnormal behavior are reported in the media almost daily. We study Psychology because it is the science of behavior and mental processes. Behavior is everything that people do that can be observed directly while mental processes include everything in our mental lives, such as thoughts, memories, feelings and motives. Psychology is also a profession in which psychological knowledge and insight are brought to bear upon human concerns. Lastly, to understand and build the strengths and virtues that enable individuals and communities to thrive.
II – 5 High lights that interest you most in PSY 1 from day one to March 4. Discuss why.
a.) Perception- why choose personality among the terms? For me, I chose this because there are a lot of thins I've learned from this. You can now adjust your negative thinking and turn it on a positive one. It's all about your choice.
b.) Personality - this terms is very common in our course and in our industry. Wherever you may go, you will always carry your personality. It's just putting yourself into a positive world. What you act, think, say, and do is aleways reflecting your personality.
c.) Intelligence - I like this one's best. Why? It's like learning but this one is you let your mind think and it process. If you don't have this one, you'll probably have difficulties in understanding other things in this world.
d.) Emotion - I've recently learned that this is prior to our environment and to our past experiences. you may not notice it now, but sooner you will. I just like learning new things about this especially we are teenagers.
e.) The Seven Habits - I also like this terms. It literally means it can improve ourselves. There are always a space for changes. I realized that now, if you are not willing to change, there is no space for an improvement within yoursleves.
III – 5 Links and explain why you like it.
a.) In this web link, I’ve watched Johnny the Bagger personalized his service by his “thought of the day”. Every customer’s are willing to wait at the line just to have that thought of the day by Johnny and it touched a lot of customer’s heart. Like, the video says, “Great Service comes the heart”. It wasn’t that innovative, but it loved and it came from his heart – heart of Johnny.

b.) I’ve chosen this link because it inspired me in the thought of “self-discipline is equivalent to personal greatness”. To develop self-discipline you must have the 7 traits. Achieving Goals, Building up Character which it helps to increase self-worth and your self-esteem. Time it is always your enemy, you can’t take back what you’ve done but you can make it sensible to arrange it. Health has 5 P’s they are proper weight, proper diet, proper exercise, proper rest, and proper attitude. Money will never be a problem if you have self-discipline and you may reach your financial goals. Courage if you have self-discipline you can do it without fear in life. Lastly, responsibility where you control thoughts and feelings if you have self-discipline. (

c.) Three letters from Teddy is originally published and well known written by Elizabeth Silance Ballard and now, it known as making a difference, it is the new title. Miss Thompson’s attitudes toward judging students by the way they look and act changed especially when she meets Teddy Stallard. She never knew that Teddy strives to learn and excel in school, until she saw the past comments of his teachers; “Teddy is a smart guy, good to his classmates and very well loved by everyone”. “Teddy is bothered, and brought him in a severe path of depression about his mother’s death and then he withdrawn.” When Miss Thompson saw that, she realized why Teddy was acting that way and she started to cry less than an hour. This movie link made me cry, seriously. Especially when teddy gave her the rhinestone bracelet and perfume of his mom, it’s the last Christmas they had together. They really had the big impact out of me. They made a difference through one another through their experiences and attitudes towards one another. (

d.) TAC, “To a Child”, love is spelled T-I-M-E. When we are growing up, we never knew that for a kid, being loved is giving your precious time to them because for them, they just need your attention even for a few minutes. Like what the movie link shown me, Jimmy and his dad’s perspectives way back. Dad wrote in his own journal: “Wasted time with Jimmy didn’t catch a thing” but for Jimmy, 4th of June is: “Went fishing with my Dad. Best day of my life”. In that two phrases I felt guilty at the same touched me, guilty because I seldom give my parents attention because I’m happily attached with my peers, and touched because I realized that my parents appreciated me and they are the best that anyone could have. Even if, to the world you might be one person, but to one person, you might be the world. That’s the ended thought that I’ll remember.

e.) This last video clip is a lesson taught by Bob Proctor. It is really difficult to track this one and I don’t know if it is the right one. But it says on youtube that is it or is entitled as: BOB PROCTOR on SUBCONCIOUS MIND and HOW TO PROGRAM IT, hoping that I got the message and the right clip. He said that our subconscious mind is already programmed or with a paradigm. In our conscious mind, we have our five senses while in our sub-conscious are ideas, thoughts or images what our conscious mind seen, heard, tasted, felt, or even smelled it. What I’ve learned about this movie link is that if we change our paradigm, we change our lives

IV – 10 High lights that interest you most in our PSY Movies.
To begin with, The Secret is a life changing, it makes you financially independent, it let your mind powerful and lastly, it will make you successful. The Secret is kept hidden from thousands of people and they let their ignorance spread to people; it was buried, coveted, suppressed and it was never revealed to the public. According to Bob Proctor, a philosopher, the secret gives you anything you want; happiness, health, and wealth. He also said that “we become what we think”, which means whatever we think it predict our future. The law of Attraction is The Secret; what we see, hold, or even our thoughts are equivalent to what we need, want or even demand and it attracts to you. Like what I watched and jotted down, an affirmative thought is a thousand’s more powerful than negative thought. The more you think, the more it will happen because the universe is reacting to what you want; which means that it attracts what you think. Also, mind shaping what it being perceive it is always your choice at the end. Let go of the bad habits, the old routine focus on new choices or what you want even more rather than doing the same old boring and unhappy ways.Secondly, The film describes how the body parts of the baby develop inside the mother’s womb. I was amazed with this because in nine months pregnancy of the mother, different organs of the baby develop and they turn into a real human being. At 3 weeks old of the baby, imagine that the heart of the baby starts to beat. At early days of the pregnancy of the mother, you will not even notice that the child inside your womb has already a life. Then, the bones start to grow and have proportion at 9 weeks old of the baby. As time goes by, many organs form in the baby and the mother must be careful about their health and thing they are doing because it can really affects the baby. Pregnancy is said to be one of the most beautiful creative processes but yet a great mystery. Conceive the 9-month waiting for the baby to develop from the moment he is only a small cell until he becomes a child in flesh and blood. We should capture that pregnancy is a natural and normal phenomena. As a woman, I understand that pregnancy is a very significant time in a woman’s life and it is very important to know what happens in these nine months and what you can do to keep things on track and avoid problems.Lastly, the video, “Miracles of Life”, explains in detail how a human is born from the start. All organisms contain genes, DNA, and cells and are able to reproduce. In order for a baby to be born, a male gamete meets with the female gamete and this is called fertilization. This is the first step leading to the birth of a baby. The video is prepared not only to show the wonders of prenatal development but also to prove the marvels of life itself. Remarkably beautiful, the “Miracles of Life” records human conception and much more. Living and functioning reproductive systems are shown in the video, and there is so much to explore and absorb. I followed the short journey of millions of sperm as they develop and strive mightily to reach the egg. And I noticed that there isn't a guy in the room who can watch footage without squirming! Likewise, magnification of up to half a million times the actual size allowed me to see the egg from its development in an ovary, through the delicate fallopian tube for fertilization, and on to the uterus for growth and eventual birth.

I would like to dedicate this semester to my parents. I’m thanking them for their unconditional support with my studies. I would like also to thank them for giving me a chance to prove and improve myself through all of my walk of life. I love my Mom and Dad, for helping to make who I am today, for teaching me to be proud of who I am, for showing me how to be strong, for giving me the courage to be weak, and giving me the strength to always strive for better, no matter what ... and giving me the wisdom to know when to turn away and when to charge ahead.
V – B – Acknowledgement:
I would like to thank my Professor, for teaching us a sensible lecture rather than telling far from the subject course. Also, for my friends who helped me in following up whenever I’m absent or got sick.
