I got my associates in technical communication. Not only did I graduate after an incredibly difficult pregnancy and traumatic birth, but I did so with a 3.73 GPA. I'm so proud of myself.

Do you usually go on vacation during the summer?
No, not often during the summer--as a graduate student, peak travel season tends to be too expensive. We did go to Amsterdam over spring break two years ago, and would like to go to Iceland over an upcoming spring break, pandemic-permitting. Summers are spent closer to home, though, mostly hiking or camping when we have a free weekend.
Today has been kind of strange, slow morning (feat. sleepy cats Meep and Mushroom). In personal news, I ended up blocking my college roommate (gifter of the mug in the center photo) for especially egregious homophobia online, and it's just a weird vibe. Academically, I don't have any meetings today, and my only deadline is to return papers for my side-work within the next 24 hrs, which is nice. I'm feeling a little under the weather, anyways, so I've spent the morning knitting and listening to a new podcast ("Tell Me More!") by Wilfredo Flores. It's a podcast for graduate students to highlight their work, and his first episode is with now-Dr. Cana Uluak Itchuaqiyaq. They talk about Cana's work on Indigenous environmental sovereignty in technical communication, the publishing process and politics of citation in technical communication, and the decolonial turn. It's a really interesting and informative episode, and I look forward to future podcast episodes, even though I'm normally not much of a podcast person.

In the meantime, this topic has been really relevant to me lately, and I figured that I’d share my thoughts on it. My first disclaimer is that I am not a developer in any shape or form. I leave that to my husband who’s been…

One of those “this is my life” moments: working on a paper about how Korean beauty mask instructions are a good example of global technical communication and, therefore, spending the past two hours looking at the back of face mask packs and trying to make sense out of my thoughts on them.
Late night homework.
Truth be told, I haven’t really liked the class I’m taking this semester. But, I’m excited to read this book. It is Lean Technical Communication: Towards Sustainable Program Innovation by Meredith A Johnson, W. Michele Simmons, and Patricia Sullivan. I think it’ll be helpful for work and if I ever run a program.
