so...i'm writing this because i want to get back into the academic style of reflection and penning my thoughts down.

also because this is a break for me while reading my notes (Health Psychology).

i find the issue i have with psychology is that i don't know what to remember.

these are the aspects that i find separate to remember:
1. the descriptions of the studies. this includes the number of participants, the method, the results.
2. the names of the people who did the study.
3. the names of the studies.
4. the overall facts - these change every few years and it's so tiring to learn something only to know that it's changed. but i guess that's life and knowledge, right? that's science. but ugh, for me, a person that only takes details when i feel like they help me achieve an end goal, all these "facts" just seem like irrelevant details ultimately. how do i get past this?
5. what is the point of reading so much when i don't know what questions these answer? what are the big questions that i have to answer?
