I wish I had paid more attention during EL1101. Morphemes, Phonemes, Morphology, Phonetics, Phonology, Semantics, Pragmatics, Auxillaries, Modifiers, Articles, Lexical et cetera. I finally gained some insight into what these mean.

Thank you to my friends majoring in English. I salut you for having such passion and 'acquired taste' for the technicalities and complexities of the English language.

On that note, I realise that I have been shortchanging myself when it comes to expressing my thoughts verbally. I realise that I have a limited vocabulary which results in my having to use words which are either inappropriate or nonsensical.

Amazing how a 2 hour lecture on language development and subsequently a 2 hour art history/appreciation lecture makes me reflect on how I need to improve myself and how much I am missing out on in terms of using the right words to describe how I feel or how things are.

Aside: People who think psychologists or the study of psychology predominantly deals with Freudian theories (one of which is the ever famous black couch scene aka free association) or hand-holding counselling sessions should hit themselves. Hard.
