Not Your Everyday PsychGeeks

Two good friends with a love for Psychology…and coffee!

Marnelli (on the left) and Pin (on the right) are your fun-loving, geek-charming, authors of BrainBreaking!

Meet Marnelli: She’s your average psych student who considers herself quite lucky to still be doing psych after all the essays she barely scraped by. She would love to work with children in the future, but not sure what field in psychology she’ll specialise in. She loves eating sweets and drinking large amounts of coffee. She loves baking and drawing and would like to improve on both. She loves lectures when they are so absorbing that it doesn’t matter if the lecturer is overtime (which happens a lot if it’s psych). She also enjoys writing about herself in the third person.

Meet Pin: She’s been writing ever since she could remember- about Grade 2 friendships, fictional adventures on secret islands, everything and anything about Love, her Life, her dog, social injustices, and more. Now she wants to write about her new found love- Psychology. She first set foot on the roads of Psychology back in the Philippines, when she thought she was only using it as a stepping stone towards studying Medicine. Fate had then brought her to New Zealand to continue her education, and that became the fork on the road which led her to decide to completely pursue Psychology instead. She has not regretted her decision, since.
