Anthropology

Filed under: Randomness

It is fun when one meets a lecturer who is truly passionate about their field of study. They start to prance about the hall around their lectern with wild gesticulations punctuated with hearty laughs and all.

Anthropology lecture today. I am still trying to adjust to non-science lectures which are so different from science lectures!!! I was just sitting there listening to all these stories about the lecturer’s fieldwork experiences and people around me were scribbling furiously in their notepads!!! Whereas there is me who have no inkling whatsoever which bits are important and which are for entertainment. They must have somehow managed to listen to his ramblings, distill the information (hidden of of course) within and note them down all at the same time. =P I am starting to fill so out of place. >.<

ON a completely random note, I need a doctor’s bag. Someone get me one!!! Please!!!

*Anthropology: the study of cultures (this is meant in a broad context so anything from shepherding practices in Scotland to Asian driving habits and Balinese cock fighting etc by observing and participating in these activities. It kept popping into my head during the lecture that I am, in a way, doing my own study. I am learning about normal uni life by experiencing first hand the lectures and tutorial practises of these people. And believe you me, I’m about as comfortable as a duck in a cow field right now.
