3rd Week at BET

Warmest greetings from me! ^_^

Its been more than three weeks since I've started my first official job. We had debtors list meeting three days ago and again my bos-Mr. B ask me how is it going so far. I'm thankful that everything is good so far. I still have lots to learned. Still have lots to explore.

I don't have a definite answer to where I am going from this stage onward. But I am sure that God is with me. And He is preparing me through this new environment/responsibility/circumstance.
Its been a good journey though. Not as smooth as it look like from the outside but neither not as rough as imagined inside.

I don't know why I often found my self in Anthropologist and Economist mode. I guess everyone is one most of the time. Its just that they either don't know it or don't bother to even understand or know what is anthro+econs.

Anyway today is the last day for this week. Next week weds will be officially my 4th week a.k.a 1 month working at BET.

I Will post another entry for that. Anyway..I think that's all for now.

the turning point towards anthro.

¨Anthropology teaches us about other peoples, and in the process it teaches us about ourselves. The anthropologist’s method is different from that of other social scientists, and this influences the nature of the discipline – its theories, concepts, and procedures. Anthropological research involves a journey, a journey in space, a journey through time, a psychological journey into an alien world. It resembles Alice’s trip through the looking glass into another universe where the ‘rules’ may be turned on their heads and people may behave in very different ways.

In many of those memorable lecture that I came across, this is the one that really make me hooked with anthropology. I wasn't into anthro before. I'm more into Dev. Study, chinese language and economics.

But then, I guess, this was the moment that change the course of my journey for the next two years in UniofA. I never regretted this as I enjoy it very much. and thanks God for that.
