One of my ideas for a future career is to become a psychotherapist. It’s a field that I’ve always found fascinating. I can think of only one major drawback: suppose one of your patients has just seen that really amazing movie that everyone’s talking about, and the movie just happens to have unleashed a torrent of emotions and revelations in that person, and they feel a need to emote effusively about it? And you haven’t seen the movie? And it’s one of those movies with a killer plot twist, like “Citizen Kane” or “The Usual Suspects” or “The Crying Game”? What do you do? I don’t know.

But it’s something to think about.

The Declaration is a great weekly student publication at the University of Virginia. It’s one of those smart/hip/deep/funny newspapers, often with some great writing.
