♤ Studyblr Introduction Post ♤
Hello! I've considered making a studyblr several times, but now I finally want to try and commit to one. This blog's content will probably include both academic college/university stuff and non-academic college/university stuff.
♠ About Me ♠
➼ Name: Vincent
➼ Pronouns: He/him
➼ I'm going into a Japanese masters program this coming fall with a teaching position; I graduated undergrad with a Japanese major, Linguistics major, and Korean minor
➼ I was tutor and first-year mentor throughout undergrad
♠ Academic Background / Interests ♠
➼ Languages and Linguistics
➼ My post-grad goal is to be a translator as well as stay in academia, I'll likely go into either research or a PhD program after my MA
➼ I graduated summa cum laude with distinction + I'm a part of the Japanese national honor society college chapter
➼ I do a lot of research on LGBT+ media, fandom, and both ancient/pre-modern and modern queer literature. My focus is mainly on Japan and Japanese works, but I also do research on Korean works on occasion!
➼ I also do a lot of research on sociolinguistics, conversation analysis/interactional linguistics, broadcasting of identity in language (+ how that shows up in translation), and use of orthography in storytelling
➼ I play a lot of video games
➼ I love writing (I posted a lot of fanfiction before school officially took over my priorities)
➼ I love music (I took formal lessons for singing for a long time and did community theater w/ classes throughout high school so whenever I watch live performances I always make so many comments about little things I notice sdhfgsh)
♠ Studyblr Goals ♠
➼ I want to use this account to help motivate myself to have a more consistent schedule
➼ I also want to commit to only using photos I've taken myself in original posts! I enjoy taking photos and this will give me a reason to do so
➼ Advice!!!! I applied to be a tutor/mentor at my university because I really value giving and receiving advice and support, so I want to use this account as another outlet for doing that
♠ Studyblr Inspirations ♠
I've scrolled studyblr tags on and off for a while, so I think some of the blogs that inspired me are inactive now but regardless:
