hi (//ω//)

i'm o.

i'm currently doing my masters in english language and literature and i sometimes dabble in creative writing both in english and finnish.

i also study mandarin chinese as a minor and hopefully will get to do a degree in it later in life. i'm also learning korean, swedish and french but those are on a break since i want to put my full attention on mandarin.

i love classics, fantasy, ballet and i am always obsessing over various artistic endeavours (rn trash journalling and editing vlogs).

currently on exchange in taiwan!!

having institutional access never stops feeling sort of crazy to me because you can literally type in any country and time period and find at least a handful of peer reviewed articles somewhere that discuss a specific aspect of people's lives in depth and at length like "what was considered pop culture in late imperial russia" or "how did the textile trade work in northern mali in the 1600s" or "children's toys in pre-colonial philippines" and it's just sitting there but the majority of people on planet earth aren't allowed to read any of it

14.5.26 - last month of the semester begins.

quite weird to think my exchange is almost over and i'm only now getting used to my courses and my life here in taiwan. i guess that's how it usually goes. taiwan and i's story isn't over yet, however...
