Courses through Correspondance? **
im sorry. but im slow, you know that honey....explain using smaller words.......
through correspondances, its means they send u a booklet or a couple of them, u do the lessons and assignments at home then send them back when ur done.
u can do kinda the same thing through online courses
excuse my ignorance but what the fuck is a parapsychlogist is it like a regular psychologist that gets droped in by aircraft to it patients?
a parapsychologist, is somewhat like a ghost hunter? they search for the paranormal and try to figure out why it exists.Quote:

not really....but keep trying. you'll get it eventually.
i don't know, wouldn't it be better to do a regular psychology degree.....you could always branch out into the realm of the supernatural afterwards.....and at least you'd have something stable to fall back on.....damn, i sound like my parents! :1orglaugh

Psychologists and psychiatrists usually have to do more boring stuff like listen to boring normal people talk about why they hate their boring lives.... I mean, that's the stuff that pays... Ghost hunting I would say is the more glamorous side of it. You would have to have a proven record of ESP, documented, etc. to really get paid to do that.
it doesnt pay very good. but to me, finding a job that i like is more important than finding one that pays good. who wants a job that they hate more than anything?
I don't even have to look. I just go home to Petaluma and they come out and dance with me:1orglaughQuote:

I know Duke did when I was starting to look at colleges in the late 80's. I was seriously thinking of going into parapsychology since I was interested in the field, but also because my parents said they would prefer I major in anything outside the entertainment industry.
I grew up in Durham, NC Dr. Faust and Headless. The Duke University Parapsychology program is excellent. It's housed in the Rhine Research Center on campus. I visited the center with some friends while in high school. They even let us participate in an ESP experiment. Definitely worth checking out Suicidal.
When one psychlogist gets to gether with another psychlogist, together they make a pair a psychlogist. :1orglaugh (sorry, again)Quote:
