Class in the morning. My shower is unclogged now, but the stagnant water left a musty smell which I haven’t yet been able to air out. Classes went well, though I lost connection with my advanced class for fifteen minutes thanks to a thunderstorm. After classes I spoke with a friend on the phone for a while and worked on lesson plans. I enrolled in a free, semester-long program for grad students on data collection and analysis for humanities researchers. I’m not quite sure what my goal is with this, but I’m confident it will come in handy. There’s a huge gap in technological know-how at every non-STEM workplace. Having background in text-based analytics would be a complete game changer at any sort of NGO, law firm, or social sciences department. I would run shit.
Writing these has gotten less exciting because my days are pretty routine, but I want to keep this as a daily blog because I enjoy writing and like the practice, so I think I may have to change things up a bit. My friend suggested book reviews; maybe I’ll give that a try. In any case, expect more topical content.
