Color psychology

You can identify nearly everything with psychology, even the smallest things of yours that of course mean something more than just "I like it". Psychology of color also exists and can tell a lot interesting about each one of us and our setting.
Red color is known to be the color of love, but actually not just that. As it is also an exiting color, which symbolises action and energy, it is referable to danger and sports car. Interesting fact- red color is found in about 80% flags of various countries.
Blue color is considered to be opposite to red. Therefore blue means calmness and peace and it's used in UN flag.
Free and open color can be named yellow one. It can be considered as a symbolic color of cheerfulness and optimism as it is a color of sun.
If you feel tension, choose laying in a green room, as this color is relaxing one. The main reason for it is simple- it is a color of nature and in nature we always feel cosy and calm.
Color that is used in gangsters' and vampires' clothing. Color that means power and threat. Which one? Of course black.
A lot think that white is an opposite color to black, but according to psychology it is brown ,which is considered to be warm, friendly as it is a color of ground and also weak color. As for white, it is a symbol of purity and strength. That's why it is worn by brides, doctors.
And the last thing about autonomous color, which is grey. It is used by people who don't want to be noticed. There even exists such expression :"to be a grey mouse", which means to be lost among others, remain unnoticed.
So different colors have various meanings and have different affects on us and knowing their meanings we can tailor colors to our needs.

The subfield of psychology that I would choose. Pros & cons of it.

There are 20 subfields in psychology and each of these 20 concentrates on different issues. Therefore there is a wide choice for psychologists to find their way of their carreer.
As for me, I think I would choose cross- cultural psychology as my area of job. The reason for it would be my personal interests and wishes. Specialists of cross-cultural psychology investigate similarities and differences in psychological functioning in various cultures and ethnic groups. While getting involved in this subfield, I would gain great knowledge not just of specific psychology but also of different subjects, such as geography, foreign languages, history, political, economical matters and so forth. For sure it would be useful for me personally not just by expanding my horizons but also by gaining tolerant attitude to other cultures and ethnic groups. And of course researches and analysis of different topics comparing different cultures don't seem to be boring and passive job at all. So this would be the main advantage- the interest.
However, each thing has it's positive and negative sides. I imagine one of the disadvantages could be lack of perspectives while working in this field in Lithuania. And also lack of connection with people as I imagine this would be work of researching, not counceling.
To sum up, I believe this would be a very interesting and wide subfield, but just working abroad, in specialised universities or research centers.

Why I've decided to study psychology

Everybody around me had their own opinion what I should do after finishing school. Of course, studying as it looks strange when young people after school don't go straight to university. I have my own opinion about that , but let's leave it for other time and maybe other place.
So words like Economics , management, law were around me cause everybody were repeating only these names of prestigious studies. Anyway, I told my word and put a full stop to all the discussions among my relatives in which I rarely was involved. 'Mom, dad ( and the rest ), I will study psichology!". Not very kind reactions after my words, but still...
The explanation to them and even to me was that I want to spend at least four interesting years studying interesting thing. The most interesting thing 4 months ago for me seemed to be psychology. Firstable, cause I tasted a bit of it at school. I had really interesting lessons of it and I was hungry for more. Hope that my hunger will be satisfied here, at university.
I also remember the words of my ethic's teacher: " There are only 3 ways to know the world ( the inner part ). These are philosophy, religion and psychology. A sophisticated person should taste each of these three." So I wanted to taste psychology first, as it seems very interesting and still young and improving field examining human beings.
To sum up, I can say that I just was curious and in some way wanted to improve that inner part of me which is searching for the gist of life. Hope not to loose this curiosity and keep going.
