quick break - more dreadlines
Dec. 7th, 2023 10:04 amJust stopping in bc it's been a minute... I've been chipping away at a second post from my dnd campaign retelling but it's been slow going since I'm also writing final papers for my classes. It's been fun though, looking back on games we played almost a year ago.
Classes are winding down, I've still had to go in twice a week but both classes are just on final presentations now so it's been a nice break to not have to read and prepare a bunch of stuff. I get to present today on the data research methods used in 3 language attitude studies carried out in hong kong. Super interesting stuff & it's fun bc one of the papers I picked I only belatedly realized has really bad data reporting so I get to go in and be like THIS IS BAD.
Then 2 of 4 deadlines are out of the way.
First paper is almost done, I'll wrap that up today for sure. Second paper is a mess...
It did make me think about going back to hong kong... I only ever went for about a week, I think I'd like to do something a little bit longer maybe. No structure really, just show up and explore around, take the ferry and stuff. If it's still like it was in 2015 I shouldn't need a visa, a US passport gets you entry for 3 months. Or it did back then. I'm thinking about doing it as a graduation trip. I was in the middle of some big plans to go to HK and China in 2020 and you can safely guess correctly that those plans didn't end up happening.
I want to freakin sew and I want to crochet. I want to paint. I want to play video games!!! and dnd!!!!!
Game awards are tonight & there's a rumor growing that there's gonna be a dishonored 3 announcement.
Gotta get a picture of my cat laying cutely under the christmas tree to share
