Glazedpaper is currently a student in eleventh grade. She chose psychology as her elective so that later on, when she has the chance and opportunity, she could help people around her and maybe understand the human mind and race better.
Currently she dances, reads and studies and out of all her subjects, psychology is her favorite. She enjoys psychology because it’s used in all spheres of life- whether it be business, writing, or just pure living. She hopes to use the psychology she’ll study in more detail later on in writing novels and dreams of writing alongside counseling. You can contact Glazedpaper via glazedpaper[at]psychworld[dot]com.
