Woww, completing a second masters, that is excellent. I am also thinking of doing another Master's but I am not sure in what, lol.

You love to read, that's very good. I try to set reading goals, and cannot seem to complete them. This I have to work on.

@GlenM

I am from the Caribbean. I do not have a favorite movie, but my genres are action, drama, thriller and romance. I am 'working' on my reading, well trying, lol, to at least read one book a month. I like to do things that are relaxing, like nature walks, beach, sometimes resting, watching TV, watering my plants and listening to music.

@KBeauty12

That's awesome Kbeauty12, I love movies too so it's hard to pick a favorite. What have you seen recently?

Hi,

I'm AuroraBriarRose0 and I'm from the united states in the Midwest. I have recently started reading The Body Keeps the Score by Bessel Van Der Kolk, M. D. and before that I finished Ikigai by Francesc Miralles and Hector Garcia. I highly enjoyed Ikigai for it's statistics and scientific research into longevity and happiness and so far I like the body keeps the score for it's look into traumatic research and helpful advice. I'm really excited to be here.

@GlenM

Hi Glen, I am Joy from Pakistan. I am doing my bachelors in Psychology. So, reading books and watching movies that give me details and information about people and help me understand their behaviors is a favorite hobby of mine. The recent book that I finished was "Forty Rules of Love" by Elif Shafak. It was an interesting novel, learned so much from it. I don't remember the last movie that I watched because it's been too long since I had a busy schedule.

@GlenM

Please also introduce yourself and let us (if comfortable) where you are from and a recent book or movie you have enjoyed.

Hi Glen!

My name is FrenchMarbles, I'm a Quality Mentor [Listener Coach Track] & Anonymous Evaluator, being here since 2014 has definitely seen me through the ups and downs of the website, all the way back to when 7 Cups used to be called www.7cupsoftea.com

@FrenchMarbles

Heya Marbles, amazing to see you here! And yes, I have definitely seen you around and I imagine it must have been a rollercoastery journey if you have been here for so long already. I really admire that 💜

@GlenM

Hey everyone, I am Ocean!

I am from Germany, well originally from Switzerland but I move between those countries a lot.

I recently got very interested in a lot of psychological experiments, so I read books like the milgram experiment, and books that cover a lot of the experiments that we still base our theories on today. I really enjoyed that!

And a movie, hm, I really liked Tick Tick Boom and it is so amazing that it came out as a movie now!

Everyone reading this: You are amazing, just by being on Cups, being interested in learning more, helping out members and listeners, always trying to improve and to be your best self. You are doing awesome, but don't be too hard on yourself, you are doing a lot already ❤️

@GlenM

Hi everyone I'm Harsvin from Malaysia.

I joined this site back in year 2015, I started off as a listener and I have learned so much throughout my years spent on 7cups, I have improved my listening skills and even gained experience on leadership roles as a Quality Mentor/Listener Coach. I'm looking forward to learn and grow more through this program and gearing up to implement it on my mentoring roles.

A bit about me.. I'm an introvert who loves spending time writing poetry and sketching, I find it liberating to express myself in the form of my artwork, and it also makes me happy! Apart from that, I have a keen interest on helping people by providing emotional support as I believe by spreading kindness and compassion, would make the world such a better place!

I appreciate everyone's contribution in this wonderful community and looking for to grow each and every day ❤

@GlenM

I don't remember watching any movies recently as it's been a very long time. I enjoyed reading Are You Afraid Of The Dark by Sidney Seldon

@GlenM

Hello all! I'm Glue.

I come from the Netherlands, but I've from an expat background so 'my own culture', so to speak, is a bit of a mix.

The most recent book I read (but haven't finished) was Stahl's Essential Psychopharmacology, the newest edition. As a hobby, not for university! The pictures are such an upgrade compared to the textbooks I've read on anything neuropsychology/neuroscience.

Hope you are all well!

@sunnyLion4273

Hey Lion, nice to meet you! I find it really interesting that you prefer books to audiobooks. For me, audiobooks make it easier to follow - with reading, I always get distracted...
