Not bad. Belonging would be better than Discovery though, but oh man, those extension courses sound so good! I like crime and everything, but I'd rather study comedy. Life writing would be cool too. Science fiction is not really my thing though.

Discovery is a complex process marked with challenges and affirmations which allow individuals to gain a deeper sense of identity.

i feel sorry for everyone doing discovery...they literally have no resources to help them such as sample responses etc.
