So today is Finally the day !
I will write my last post for you.
This semester has been rich in many ways. If the occassions is given to me, I will definitively re-do the experience one angain. Of course I would love to do it with the same people that I’ve met here. I know it won’t probably happens once again but I was thrilled and so thankful to be able to live this experience.
During this class, I met new people, I met people that I already knew, and a new teacher.
The Systeme’s Theory and social media class was a unique experience that I discover. I personally think that this class is a mixe of severals psychology. While studing and discovering the topic of each class, I found myself thinking that it was really similar to other subject that I’ve been studying back in France. Thanks to the class systeme theory and social media, I was able to rediscovers some new topics that I could have forget about or to make me learn even more some topic.
For example, the class on the complexivity was really interesting, quite confusing sometime but still very interesting. the concept of Double Pendulum was really interesting to see. i think that I see one of those video about it, but I am very not sure so it’s was good to redeiscovered it one again. I am a very curious person in general so it’s facinated me to see that almost everything can have an explanation, a reason to exist in this world, universe.
Moreover, the concpte of connectivity, of System, the notion, fact that everything is connected is very interesting and useful. I think it was one of the most importante concepte that we study this semester. I think that I will probably never forget about it. Always remember that when you are stuck, they is an other way to solve your probleme, because even if you don’t found a solution to a probleme, an other solution will existe, one that you didn’t think about and which was the all time connected to your probleme.
I think that I was one of the first person to go back to my contry, I was sad that I have to leave my new friends that I just met few month ago, the city, athens, Greece… the school that I would have loved to know better, discover new classes. I am a psychology student in my contry so I already had a “backgroud” in psychology and I was expected to discovers a new aspect of psychology in Greece, and even when somtime I was doubtful, I realize that even if the subject was kind of the same, the same goes for the topic, I understand that the point of view, the perceptive is chanching. as said previously, I this that this class is a mix a several psycholopgy, a little bit of social psychology and a little bit of a cognitive psychology etc.
I would have love to say that thank to the group works that we have in classe I learn new things about social skill but unfortunaltely or fortunately, I had a lot of groups work in class, back in my home university, so it was really familiar to me. However, I can say that it was still a great experience because I was able to discover new person, new culture, new countries, new informations that I would propably never discover.
And justly thank to those groups work, I “discover”or understand even better that despite our differencies, we have a lot of commons point, whatever our origins, countries.
Concerning the things that I didn’t understand, there where a lot of it. I would also use this moment to give my humble thought about the methode the teacher use for our classes. I think that in general, the topic look interesting and make sens about why we are studying them. However, I think that because the language is not the mother tongue’s teacher, its was difficult for him to speak freely about the topic. And I think that it is better to priviledge quality over quantity. I think it would have been more easy to work on few topic that at the end we will master than woirking on a lot of topic and being lost on the topic. Thank to the grooup’s work, I was able to speak about this topic with my classmate and we were mostly all agreeing that we were wishing that there where fewer topic to study and to take the time to work. It was very intense almost one topic per classe. In my home university we take at least two seances to work on the same topic. However, I think that perhaps we could have follow the rythmes if we was an other classe on the week. a smallest class when we could talk about the lecture in more details.
HOWEVER, I really appreciate that the teacher take the time to put some notes on the next classe about the previouly one. It was really nice because it helps us or at least me to go back to the topic and understand it better and see what I didn’t really understand.
I leave this semester in Greece more bigger, more grown up I think.
I went back to my home. In the first classe that we had we talked about what is the signification of a home. About how we feel at home, etc. My anwser was that I love my city, that if I have the opportunities, I will never leave it. I also said that my all life is was there, my familly, my friend, I was born and raised in this city and I feel a real connection to it. I also said that having my own house was important to me because it was where I feel the more secure and the more me. I still thin tthe same, but I alos relize that even if I was far from my home and my all universe, I create my onw one here in greece. I created my onw world we my new friend, my new house, my new school. It felt good to be back home but I also miss Greece and my friend, I wish they were physically by my side for me to hug them…
I create a new home and I think that us human have this abiliti to bounce back on our feet. Of course we have our upsidedown but we are quick to melting ourself in a new environemtn.
I am proud of myself because I came from very far and before comming I was a little bit nervous, anxioux about what my life would be here in greece ; will I be able to make friends, to survive, live alone, succued in shcool, etc. And I realize tha tyes I was, of course I did mistke, I try and failed, I learned and at some point I succed.
I think that I will end my reflexion here I feel that I say everything that I want it to. I hope that we will have the opportunity to see each other at some point of our life.
For those that I will never see again I hope that you will have a good life and that you will create one that you like and one that you can be proud of. I hope that what ever happens to you you will found prosperity.
I would also like to thank you professor for all the work that you put in us, I hope that you will be a teacher for a very long time again. I hope that our paths will cross each other one more time.
Thank you to all of you who stayed and read until here.
It was Blue Siren and I whish to all of you a wonderful life.
ps : I am very sorry if there are a lot of mistakes in my text.
