in other news, if someone asked you what the color of snow was, what would your answer be? . . .
|
I was filling out a short "general inquiry" thing on my school's website and it asked that question. I am just wondering what the purpose was. I feel like I was a little snarky in my answer . . . i said something like "well, the popular answer is 'white,' but I could make an argument for otherwise since snow really is nothing more than water crystals reflecting light . . ."
by the way, the inquiry form thing was through the campus's counseling and testing center, which they offer for all students and faculty basically for free (there's a little "paperwork fee" but that's about it) . . .
anyway, I bring it up for 2 reasons.
the mundane reason is that, because it's the counseling center on campus, and they have psychologists on staff who talk to students, i just wonder if the question is some psych thing to "test" people on some surface level . . .
the other reason goes back to my earlier, lengthy post today. someone suggested, and maybe rightfully so, that I should speak to a therapist or something. as much as I don't really want to, maybe I will take advantage of some of the university's services and at least try to start making an effort to take care of myself and start moving away from all of the crap in my life that's got me so stressed out.
