Meditation
It is really very surprising to realize that we can really learn many things in 10 months of stay in abroad. The issue is not to know and have control about everything, but the little and perhaps the most important part of this exchange.
In reality, in Norway, the foreigner has not during the first months access to the "system". drowned in his ignorance of rules and all other things, he can't develop his potential; and this is my personally case. but still, once in contact with some notions of the "system", life changes color.
it is very obvious that I came to Norway with a knowledge base in terms of my education, but then I realize that I've learned so many things that add more to my intellectual background. of course there will arise the question. In which you've changed ALEX? the only answer I will give is: "I grew up more." it is an connoted answer that can be either unjustifiable because of lack of evidence, or justifiable only by perception.
So I would go straight to the point by saying that my way of seeing things, analyze, and draw conclusion reassures me of that change.
quality of judgement that I establish myself in the circumstances prove that I'm more mature. it was so difficult for me to see the necessity of this program of exchange because it was so short for me. certainly I have not mastered everything this year , and also it is impossible because knowledge has never been absolute, it is acquired day by day. recognize the profound value of this exchange is the purpose of this article.
It is not that always we believe that the Man in the Third World still needs funds to complete its development and yet the investment in human resource development may represent a superior quality.
During this year many things have changed in my being that even my ambitions and my dearest wishes have changed. which means that Man can give a new orientation to his vision. it is very certain that I complete this article in the next few hours .....

THE UNFORGETTABLE CHRISTMAS CELEBRATION
>
>
The unforgettable December 24 in Norway
from the outset, Christmas in Norway is celebreated in different ways not identical to that we are using to do in Cameroon. According to the humble mind, Christmas is a really important party in Norway in the sense that it is the occasion when the whole family meet together after having spent a whole year for some to call on the phone, then this fabulous remark on the traffic of gifts in those bigger super markets give to this festival a unique look into the Norwegian calendar of festivities.
In Norway, Christmas is a family festival and is celebrated more on the 24th desember.is true that we, Cameroonian we also do the same thing but then considered rather feteest desembre 25th, and yet growing at a level too broad to be a matter of Popularity: because being at home ,you can be visited by anyone at anytime, and especially this person must share with you a meal. Discs of music and various invitations are proliferating throughout the country and it should be noted that a Christmas party passed without a visitor at home reflect your character even egoism and avarice.
It is not so strange to me that I participate in a different category of celebration because I'm living in a different culture. And speaking of culture, I have undiscovered in Norway that some people bathe in the sea freezes as tradition. Being so passionate about the Norwegian culture , I proposed myself candidate for this bath where we must open sea and to withdraw the ice before swimming. As shown in this picture.
Then there is a time to swim and it was cold and what was really challenging was to time the person who would do more time in the frozen sea.
Very excited,once at home, the news spread through the land of my intership and everyone would see all the pictures on facebook. It was a real experience and new to me but so memorable.

THE INFIELD COURSE
Since the 02-01-2010,we (international students)are still living at Hald for for the infield course.
firstly ,all of us are really exiting for meet together there after long time :we are thinking that the fact to see each other and share experiences will be good.
Then the first day more of joyful was in the camp ;through songs and danses .for me nothing was exiting like that durant the long periode in Norway.
in the eveningafter super ,we gather in the living room sharing our three month living in the cold country.some one telling about funning eperiences and some others about challenges.at least we discover that among all stories ,life in norway is going well.
I would like to come back about infield course .what happens?why? I was really curious for that.I realised that it is the most important lessons and movies and speechs that was important for international students like us.
It seems to everyone that we are geeting now knowledges .I means the movie of "shlomo"talking about war,.poverty,identity in that movie I recognize many effects of living in abroad .
Most again, we are discusssing about many topics :fk program:exchange and development and most of students like me coming from Africa living in what we call poverty was exited about the futur of knowledges found here in Norway.
We realized the need investment of self in the struggle for the improvement of the situation and life standards in Africa and the Third World.
It is very clear that the change will be not seeing sudently as a magic tricks to our return, but the goal is to start gradually transform the attitudes of young people who are the backbone of the nation. This fact will continue the process first by a progressive change in the restricted environment of the student, and it does not necessarily require finance but yet because of the mentality has repeatedly Even with these financial, management has been absent.
The real problems of African poverty began the era of colonization, and encouraged more widespread in the 19 century em with the expansion by technical and scientific progress.
Africa, since impoverished 5em century of these valiant warriors and workers who have been transported as slaves to new horizons; Africa and colonization hehhh ...... everyone knows that this country has sheltered battles sacrificing its population; Dirrig of the technical and scientific progress have spent no penny to get guinea pigs for experiments that were the "other side of the sea".
Annulment of the economic system based on the exchange of products "barter" ensued:
the conventional economic system based on the earth - the capital - and then work
the system of neo-colonialism based on: the capital - labor
in analyzing near this one realizes that the neo-coloniaslisme system that cancels the land of economic network time between the increased more lacks of job. because the distribution of resources does not affect those who work in agriculture; the land, however there will be a rural exodus of the popultion in search of productivity gains where the concept of profit for the capitalist society.
I am more and more confused in myself every time I remember my first story classes saying that: Africa is the "cradle of humanity" other books tell us of "mother of civilization "the first human skeleton was discovered in Kenya several centuries before. My confusion is that if Africa is the mother of civilization since the first human skeleton has been found in Africa, how do you explain then the fact that civilization is not passed or begun by that?or there?
In anthropology, a skeleton represents a civilization. But when we speak of civilization today we hear from everywhere that:
the africa people is not civilized
Africa uses an old civilization
Civilization has beeing flyied from Africa (Kenya) to other country? Or is it heiress disasters?
sponsored political systems and generators wars
diseases such as AIDS, which was discovered in 1905 in America but which spread with amazing speed in Africa. for the rest I will speak about it without writte .
