Necrophobia
Necrophobia or the fear of the dead is a psychological status when you feel afraid of death or may be you are afraid of dead things. The feeling is indeed uncanny. You cannot explain that eerie feeling, which you experience when you stand before a mummy or a corpse. This phobia is indeed dangerous.
Imagine yourself standing in a museum room with dead things around. The mummy with skeletal features and several carcasses of extinct animals of the world – all are looking as if ready to catch a prey when no one is around.
Symptoms of necrophobia:
•Shortness of breath;
•Rapid heartbeat;
•Infrequent and asymmetrical heart beat;
•Sweating;
•Dry mouth and shaking;
•Feeling sick and queasy;
•Psychological instability;
•An altogether feeling of dread and trepidation.
May be it developed after you saw some one dying or an ugly dead thing before you. You may have gone through lots of emotional trauma then.
Self-help NLP skills and procedures help in creating reality. During a successful session of self-help Neuro Linguistic Program your psychological ‘construct” is changed.
Once the “constructs” are exposed and reprogrammed, the fear of the dead is either minimized or absolutely eliminated. Self-help NLP techniques help you judge a situation logically and once the rational gains victory over the irrational, half the battle is automatically won.

Professor Richard Wiseman
Professor Richard Wiseman is based at the University of Hertfordshire in the UK. His work is reported in over 40 academic journal articles, eight books, 10 book chapters and over 30 national and international conference papers. This reveals the remarkable psychological perspectives.
Professor‘s researches of paranormal, about work which examines the formation, maintenance, and impact of belief in the paranormal and magical thinking. The most interesting fact was that many of the experiences when people say that they see ghosts have a psychological explanation. This may results in mild psychosomatic and hallucinatory phenomena.
Rischardas Wisemans are only beginning to bloom. I am convinced that the experimentation will reveal to us yet more secrets of the mental.

Average happiness
Happiness is a state of mind or feeling such as contentment, satisfaction, pleasure, or joy. It's not just a sudden emotion. It is knowing that despite some problems in your life you're still happy.
An average happiness calculation was made in 95 nations 1995-2005. How much people enjoy their life-as-a-whole was evaluate on scale 0 to 10. In the top of all 95 nations is Denmark! It was evaluated even 8.2 points. Others the happiest nations are Switzerland, Austria, Iceland and Finland. I think that these results were influenced by good political and economical situation in these countries. However, this list shows us, which nations are the unhappiest. In the bottom of the list we can find Armenia, Ukraine, Moldova, Zimbabwe and the rearmost is Tanzania. It was evaluated on 3.2 points. And what evaluation gets Lithuania? Only 4.6 and it is 85 of 95 nations. Sad to see these results, but this is fact. I think, that apart economical and political situations people’s happiness is affected by climate, temperament, nature and other different facts.
In conclusion, the satisfaction depends on how the basic needs of people fulfilled are. If people gave no chance to fulfill these aspects then they have straight way to the average happiness.

Psychology in MRU and abroad
Students study psychology no long in Mykolas Romeris University, only 3 years. But it isn`t argument to say that quality of study is bad. I want to compare psychology studies in Mykolas Romeris University with University of Wrocław in Poland and famous University of Cambridge. Why I selected those universities? Reason is simple and not seriuos: I found particular subjects, which are studied.
Fisrstly I want to say something about University of Cambridge. This university was estabilished at XIII century. The Faculty of Politics, Psychology, Sociology and International Studies celebrates in this year fortieth birthday. Structure of course of psychology is very interesting and different from our structure of course. Students study 3 years, not 4 like in MRU. In the first year students have introduction to the 3 different disciplines: politics, psychology and sociology, also one of the six another disciplines. In the second year students choose one of the 4 schemes: Politics, Psychology, Sociology, or Sociology and Psychology. Between subjects is experimental psychology, which includes practical work. And I want to add that psychology course is focused on social and developmental psychology. In the third year students have variuos choices, allowing students to pursue some of their particular interests. After studies you can go to professional courses in clinical and educational psychology.
Now I want to speak about University of Wrocław. It was established in XVIII century. Psychology had studied since 1969. Our university give baccalaureate after 4 years studing psychology. After studies graduate person could select postgraduate studies or work as assistant of psychologist or select job which isn`t directly related with psychology. At University of Wroclaw after 5 years studyng student get master degree and can work in different psychology branches. Also person must study psychology after that, develop nolage about psychology. Subjects are very similar. But University of Wroclaw hasn`t alternatives such as management or bases of law. Our university doesn`t require training. In University of Wroclaw practice work is compulsary.
Structure of course in University of Wroclaw is similar with Mykolas Romeris University. Differences: level of degree and practical work. I liked structure of course in Cambridge University. Person in first year can more know about similar courses and he has more freedom in choices of subject. It give more confident and independence. How about pluses our university? Course of psychology is interesting and lectors have another, better opinion of students than in another universities of Lithuania. Also students must choose alternatives subjects which can be not related with psychology, but can be useful in the future.

SELF-ASSESSMENT SUCCESS IN LEARNING ESP
As you already know, English is the new language for me, which I am studying only for three months. So:
- Writing a summary (6)- because it is difficult for me to express my thoughts in English.
- Writing comprehension testo n modules in psychology (7-8)- I am trying very hard to learn the English language, and I can to learn them.
- Making power point prsentation (9)- I spent a lot of time and endeavour preparing my presentation.
- Impromtu speaking in class (5)- It is difficult for me to express impromptu my thoughts in English, when I speak.
- Performance in listening practice (5)- listening task was diffucult for me, but I tried to do my best.
- Writing contributions to e-portfolio (weblog) (8)- While writting these essays I was able to use English literature which helped me to write correct works and let me learn more in English.

Learning ESP
The most important difference lies in the learners and their purposes for learning English. ESP students are usually adults who already have some acquaintance with English and are learning the language in order to communicate a set of professional skills and to perform particular job-related functions. And I am not a exeption. :)
Adults must work harder than children in order to learn a new language, but the learning skills they bring to the task permit them to learn faster and more efficiently. The skills they have already developed in using their native languages will make learning English easier. Although you will be working with students whose English will probably be quite limited, the language learning abilities of the adult in the ESP classroom are potentially immense. Educated adults are continually learning new language behaviour in their native languages, since language learning continues naturally throughout our lives. They are constantly expanding vocabulary, becoming more fluent in their fields, and adjusting their linguistic behaviour to new situations or new roles. ESP students can exploit these innate competencies in learning English.
To sum up, I mean that these learning ways must help to speak and write English better. Good luck !! ;)
