Post graduate studies

Imagen
I'm not very sure if I want to continue with postgraduate studies, because I feels that 20 years in a classroom it's too much and really  I prefer travel around the world or maybe do some volunteering, but I think that I have time to decided, so I'm not worried about that. The thing is that I know how in important jobs prefer people that have that kind of studies, because it reflects  the dedication that someone put in a work, of course I don’t agree with that way of think, but this is how it is. So, if I have to choose, I prefer something related with art, maybe with theory or history of art and how that can help to my work in archaeology and how people related with that ways of expression. Even when I’m not sure about my future, I’m completely sure about travel and live in different places, If I decide continue studying I want to do it in other country, especially in one of Europe, because is necessary admit that is where all the knowledge about ancient art is, a

My future job

Imagen
Like I always say, I’m not sure about my future in general, but I must admit that sometimes I feel desperate because all the people do always the same questions about jobs and money and opportunities and that kind of things, but none ask about what makes me happy and actually  I’m not sure about archaeology’s jobs, I feel that are too traditional for what I want.  I learn that for an archaeologist exist a limits job’s opportunities, that are investigation or environmental impact , for the first one is necessary have a lot of knowledge about a specific area and it’s completely difficult get projects, so that’s an option that takes a lot time and I feel that doesn’t have a social role, because the only import things are show the results in a congress  to other scholars and that's it. Well, environmental impact is not very different, the only thing that change is that you sell your soul to huge company, so the communities are the last thing important in that case.

Archaelogy rules ?

I like to think that archaeology rules, I know it's sound weird, and looks that I'm complete crazy about my career, but the truth is that I'm not sure, and all the time I'm doubting about what I'm exactly  doing here, really archaeology rules ?, of course that no, no one’s knows about what it is and in every family reunion I have to explain what I’m studying and if I have opportunities for work in the future and of course everyone asking why I chose that, always in a kindness way. When I was in school, I always participated in activities with social purposes and since that time is that help people is one of the thing that make me  feels most grateful than anything, the experiences and how people looks happy it’s something that I don’t know how to explain, I think that was when everything started, from that moment  I was completely sure about what I want to do, if I have to spend five or more years studying, I want that have sense and not just for the money.

My favourite type of movie

Imagen
Be in the university is a completely challenge, the pressure of good marks and all the things to read and learn do that the free time doesn't exist, so when a have a weekend or even a single day in the week to relax and do anything that I like, watch a movie is always a good option, but not any type, for me is good if that makes me think in other kind of things different from that I learn in class. So a movie that makes me laugh is perfect, but also I prefer that it is related at some level with reality, because I really hate that kind of comedy that is based in hurts the feelings of the people that are different for every reason, like comments or jokes related with racism. When comedy is accompanied with drama or romance is even better, especially if this is exaggerated and creates ridiculous situations for the characters, but at the end teaches us about clichés that no one questions, because think that aren’t real, just a creation of the director, but actually the inspir
