Go, learn and discover!


Hello! :)
Today I would like to tell you more about the project called Erasmus. This program gives a chance to students to go abroad and to learn at the foreign university whenever they want (at the first, second, third, fourth or fifth year of studies). Due to the fact that I was a participant of this project, I will try to present you how it works and whether I mention it positively or not :)
But from the beginning…
As you already know, each university allows students to go to the another country in order to enrich their knowledge according to their studies. It can be a law student, a futur engineer or a philologist. The last one, in my opinion, has the easiest way to go away because of good language skills. The choice isn’t so hard. For example, when you study French, you will probably choose the university in France, Switzerland or Belgium where people used to speak this language – that’s normal :). More difficulties can have an another student because his choice is limited. As we can perceive, English is the most popular and the most known language in the world so when you don’t study any philology, it's probable that you must learn English. That’s the problem for students of sciences such as mathematics, physics, chemistry or geography. They are scared, they think that they won’t cope with a language, with a communication abroad… A lot of them abandon their dreams of studying in the other country and meeting people from different parts of the world.

But not me! :) I’ve decided to go to France more than one year ago during my first part of studies. It wasn’t easy - I must have had an conversation in French, I needed to justify why I wanted to go away, what have I expected after, which city would I choose … but finally it succeeded! I’ve spent in the city of Montpellier (it’s located in the southern France, near Cote d’Azur) the best time in my life and if I could go abroad one more time to study at one of the French universities, I wouldn’t hesitate. It was an amazing adventure – during a few months I’ve enriched my knowledge containing the language, the culture and traditions of France. What is more, I’ve visited a lot of cities like Perpignan, Beziers, Nimes, Marseille, Avignon, Orange, Nice or Barcelone (yes, also Barcelone :D). For me (the future translator and person who would like to work with French) it was one of the most important experiences which I could suffer in the middle of studies. Why? Because where can I be surrounded by people speaking French at such a high level and develop the beauty of this country? :)

Interpersonal communication at work: obligation or additional value to achieve a success nowadays?

The theory of the unconscious mind

"The mind is like an iceberg, it floats with one-seventh of its bulk above water" Sigmund Freud (1856-1939) was born in Austria. He developed the technique of psychoanalysis in his treatment of patients with mental disorders. His most famous book, "The Interpretation of Dreams" was published in 1900. Freud argued that we all have an unconscious mind as well as a conscious one. The unconscious in where our motivations originate and our fears are buried. Memories, especially from childhood, have a huge influence on the way we are now, but we are unaware of their significance. We deny or resist becoming conscious of these motives. Freud's proposals came when strict scientific methods were seen as the only way to discover truth. By introducing the notion of the unconscious, Freud undermined the belief that we are in control of our actions, thoughts and behavious all the time. He is commonly referred to as "the father of psychoanalysis" and his
