Why Psychology?

I'm a Psychology Major and so I have to be liberal and broad-minded. Why did i took up Psychology in the first place? Curiosity? Maybe. And there are Q's in my mind. Questions other people may not be able to answer why.
Why such actions affect the person's behavior? What causes such "disorders"? Are people naturally "social animals'? Why? Why some people chose to be gay or lesbian? Do we have to catogorize human race? Do we really have to act our age? Why such "tests" are given to people with emotional conditions? Am I eccentric? How and why do Psychologists understand human behavior?
That may be some of the questions I have.
It is really not easy to study interactive or developmental deeds or actions. Certainly, I want to be a Doctor and I still have more than 8 years to have Masteral and Doctoral degree. Exciting realistically, and I have to analyze and listen to every single detail written in the book and what the instructor says. Whenever I go to school, I always let every situation attact me. It simply means, I want "adventure" and see the key way out of it because at the end of the day, I will realize that I made it through my own knowledge. Breathtaking isn't it? Each and every time I listen to the reporters in our Psychometrics 1, I learn new ideas. Different Psychological tests, the bright persons or scientists behind those electrifying tests, when and how to use it, how to compute ages at so forth. In our Social Psychology, I ususally learn facts about the person as a "whole". Not just the person itself, but also the factors that may affect his/her behavior. Different situational facts, both Eastern and Western way of thinking. Sort of Philisophical beliefs or opinions.
My knowledge is growing and will still expand as time flies. As what I've written in my previous blog,
"the best and worst things are yet to come, so let's just see what will happen next".
