Last night was the social work department's handoff ceremony, where the current department executives pass their duty over to the new executives. Being a part of the ceremony made me feel all the more integrated into the school and my department. I can't really say I played a role in electing the newbs because the department wouldn't let foreign students vote last week. A lot of boring speeches, but yummy food and of course dancing afterwards. Music and dance is such a large part of ghanaian culture, that at almost every event there will be music and dancing. That's one of the main reasons why i love Ghanaian culture. The rich artsy aspect of it. I especially love it when they bust out into traditional dance.
