that awkward moment when you have the zoom link for a formal meeting right in front of you but you don’t want to arrive too early but also don’t wanna be late so you just stare at the screen until it’s the exact right moment to enter the zoom session. I just love how we as humans took the horrible feeling of “I don’t know if it’s appropriate to knock already” and translated it to the internet.

I always spend money on textbooks even though I barely use them for class. However, I always find them useful to keep and to refer back to in the future, or maybe I’m trying to find an excuse to keep buying books. I’m not the only one though, right?

I can't stress this enough:
If you are having trouble learning or understanding something, especially in school, use different resources.
How do you learn best? Are you an auditory, visual, written, or hands-on learner? Supplement the assigned text with a podcast, audiobook, YouTube video, etc. so that the subject matter makes sense to you. Look for additional resources that best suit the way you learn.
Don't understand the textbook? Go to the library to see if there are other books on the topic. Read them as your primary source and then refer back to the text your prof assigned. That way you have a good foundation on the topic.
Not retaining the information? Translate the information in your own words. Summarize the paragraph like how you would teach it, draw a picture/comic to summarize the main points, use auditory and visuals along with reading to make sure you really understand the info.
Everyone has different learning styles and learn at different paces. If I had known this back in high school and university, it would have been a lot easier.
Passing this on in case it helps someone else.

06.04.2022: Summer Meetings
The fellowship is going well! I'm currently still prepping my honors thesis project for the upcoming year. I'll likely be working on a psycholinguistics-oriented speech perception adaptation project, but I still need the project pre-approved.
- one in the psych department doing research on linguistics elements in internalized disorders and emotional adjustment.
I was also picked up by two additional labs as an RA:
- one in the BCS department doing speech perception adaptation research in bilinguals, possibly with EEG in the future.
And, because that's never enough, I started working part time (2 days/week) at the University bookstore. It's been absolutely lovely; definitely the best experience I've had working retail. Also I love my coworkers <3

For our Christmas class I made a presentation about how Chad from high school musical is the only Chad that deserves rights, a presentation which included a slide about him being a bicon and about 10 minutes straight of Troy bashing.
And this might be the greatest academic thing I have ever made.
