I was already on vacations, enjoying the last day before starting classes again. There I was lying in my bed; then I didn’t expect to have a term like it was.
It was the start of my second year on university, studying anthropology; and all I knew were the classes that I was going to have: Anthropology III, Latin-American History, Elements of Physical Anthropology, Psychology, Statistics II and Linguistic; well and also exercises at the university’s gym. That was the term that was planned; I have good impressions from some classes and other ones were just awful.
The good ones were obviously Anthropology III; where I learned about Materialistic Theory – Hegel, Marx, Kroeber, Steward, White, Harris, Godelier, Habermas, Gramsci and other ones –, it was a difficult class because the professor was really hard at the evaluations but his classes were so cool that you can’t complain; also was Elements of Physical Anthropology; where I had a review from the different fields were Physical Anthropology develops, imagine how I liked that I decided to take that specialty also; and Statistics II; because I think that the professor is a great person and that statistics are really important for my professional work. All the other classes were just too boring or just bad…I really don’t want to comment about that; I don’t want to remember that.
With the exercise at the gym, it was really great; I had a difficult time with assistance at the beginning but it ended pretty well. It helped to me, because I started this term a diet to lose weight so the exercise was just perfect to help with that. I lost 10 kilos along the term so I’m really happy about that.
I had some difficult times at the end of the term with Statistics II and Linguistic, because I had exams in both classes; so I had to study until the very end. But everything went well and I didn’t fail in anything else. The only thing that I have to say is that in the last weeks of the term I was really stressed because I had too much work to do for the different classes so I was unable to sleep well; I have to thank to the cappuccino vanilla from the university, they helped me to stay awake.
Then, when everything was over I had two short weeks of vacations and now I’m already into another term…I really wanted longer vacations.
How could I imagine all of these would happen lying in a bed at summer?
Hello Pablo!!
ResponderEliminarI understand that you appreciate Anthropology III, but... Statistics II????? Why?? I know that it is important and useful. but I think that it wasn't a good subject.

Somany people liked Anthropology III.. and Aedo.. why?? are U guys mad?
ResponderEliminarI share your point of view...I really liked Anthropology III, and i think that Aeedo is a pretty good teacher. But I share Dania's point of view...I liked the teacher, but not the class. I used to go to the gym too, but it was to many pression to me..jaja, but I expect to come back; congratulations for your succsessful diet!!, I could never do something like that, I don't have the will.
