Nigella's World


Okay I've FINALLY joined the tumblr world. I have a feeling this is gonna be fun. Now I have a place to put all the cute stuff I've had bookmarked since I was 16!

I'm a 26-year old PhD student. I work in corrections. I love what I do. I'm hopeless at relationships because I can't tell the difference between a crazy person and a good time. I absolutely LOVE soda. And my cats. In that order.

Ask me stuff! We like it!

I’ve known for awhile now that I wanted to study psychology when I go off to college, but I never knew what exact field I wanted to work in…

After watching the whole season of American Horror Story, I’ve come to the conclusion that I want to be a Psycho-therapist… There’s just someone about like serial killers and things like that, that really fascinate me, but at the same time, I really want to help those people because what they’re doing/thinking is terrible…

I totally get it (I’m doing my PhD in psychology and work mainly with murderers) but if you go in thinking that what they’re doing or thinking is terrible they’ll NEVER work with you. The whole point of being a therapist is to make the client feel understood and unconditionally accepted, otherwise you do more harm than good. Yeah sure there’s a certain amount of voyeurism involved in the job, but you have to want to help them too… otherwise you’re really an anthropologist more than a therapist (which certainly has its value too)

This Is Why I'm Single: Is.. As... Was... →

whyimsingle:

I’m terminally single. Every man i’ve ever loved, ever cared for has left me. I’m not a bad person, I’m intelligent, funny, etc. And alone. I don’t hate men, and I don’t think all men are dogs. I just can’t find one who’ll love me as much as I do him. Currently, I’m infatuated with a man in…

I wonder if it’s possible to break the pattern. I hope so, and I THINK so…

Random Thoughts By Bassey...: A thing I learned... →

basseyworld:

While warming myself with the possibility of this time next week. And releasing the ghosts of the past who want to remind me that I don’t deserve it. I’m thinking, “why are you even in my head you insignificant figment of a past I’d rather not revisit.” So I created a mantra. I created a prayer. I…

I prefer to record all traumas and save them for later, playing them over and over so they can haunt me for a disproportionate number of weeks to come. It’s very healthy.

I’m putting a moratorium on personal development until September of 2012. There will be no growth experiences. No introspection. None of that shit.

It’s the tragedy of loving, you can’t love anything more than something you miss.

Every restaurant suggested was one I had been to with [him]. Horribly insensitive friends marked their own birthdays with celebrations, re-signed leases in his neighborhood, used words with vowels he also used.
