a 2011/2012 rumination | lines ever more unclear
https://thefrogprincess.wordpress.com/2012/01/08/a-20112012-rumination
Lines ever more unclear. This is both a look-back and look-forward kind of post. I’ve been thinking about 2011 a lot lately, for obvious reasons, but I’ve been surprised by how negative my feelings about 2011 have been, certainly more negative than my experience of 2011. So why, when looking back, did I feel so negatively toward what has clearly been a great year relative to the past several? And I don’t do uncertainty well. The socially awkward people. The not-so-liberal liberals who pat themselves ...

Lines ever more unclear. Archive for February, 2011. I’ve done abysmally badly on the job market this year. Bad to the point where there’s a very good chance I might be working a non-academic, dead-end job next year (book store, coffee shop, the like) just to pay the bills. To be clear, I didn’t apply to anything and everything I could have. I […]. A Ianqui in the Village. Dr Mon’s So Called (…) Life. Ferule & Fescue. It’s probably me. Las aventuras de la catrala.

Lines ever more unclear. Archive for October, 2010. It turns out that trying to write a chapter (technically revise but the first attempt was woeful so really I’m doing it from scratch) that you know has no business being in your dissertation and will be dropped from the diss the second you defend is bloody difficult. I could not have less desire to […]. Why we’ve all killed tyler clementi. A Ianqui in the Village. Dr Mon’s So Called (…) Life. Ferule & Fescue. It’s probably me. Las aventuras de la catrala.

as of yesterday | lines ever more unclear

Lines ever more unclear. I became Dr. Thefrogprincess, PhD. Will say more later, but for now, I offer this: my defense was everything I wanted graduate school to be. Intellectually rigorous while simultaneously generous and affirming. On both counts, grad school was a fail. 5 Responses to “as of yesterday”. Feed for this Entry. On December 1, 2011. On December 3, 2011. Whooohoo. I’m glad that your defence went how you wanted it to go but I’m sorry to hear about gradschool.😦. On December 4, 2011.

Lines ever more unclear. Archive for November, 2010. So this is a minor, minor thing but it’s irking me so I’m blogging about it. I’ve got fat fingers. They don’t really look fat; they’re long so that mitigates the fatness aspect. And I think what makes them “fat” is more the size of my knuckles than anything else. I wouldn’t care about my […].

Musings of an expat grad student... oy vey.: October 2005
http://lonelylondoner.blogspot.com/2005_10_01_archive.html
Musings of an expat grad student. oy vey. Tuesday, October 25, 2005. I tried to write a blog entry about honesty and censorship, like I promised, but my brain is screaming for a rest, I think, and the words won't come out in any sensible order. My thoughts are still a bit nebulous, and fuzzy thinking does not a great blog entry make. Instead, I will save the heavy stuff for another day, and welcome elisabeth to the blog. I wish I could understand your blog, but I love your pictures! But a certain photo o...

Musings of an expat grad student... oy vey.: June 2006

Musings of an expat grad student. oy vey. Monday, June 05, 2006. I guess this isn't quite so much an angry feminist post as a tired and head-whirling one. Thanks, Otto. For giving me the impetus to post it. :). I've been reading a lot of really fascinating blogs lately. Feministe. But I stop short of commenting, because I'm so afraid that I'll offend someone. And that's the last thing I want to do. Therefore, I think that I'll continue to do what I'm doing: I'll just read, and listen to what people have ...

Musings of an expat grad student. oy vey. Tuesday, August 30, 2005. S husband has lost his battle with cancer. There are no words that could possibly express my sorrow for her and her son. Poetry will have to suffice:. After great pain, a formal feeling comes-. The Nerves sit ceremonious, like Tombs-. The stiff Heart questions was it He, that bore,. And Yesterday, or Centuries before? The Feet, mechanical, go round-. Of Ground, or Air, or Ought-. A Quartz contentment, like a stone-. They're like notches ...

Cranium In Absentia: February 2007

If my head weren't attached, I'd lose it. Ramblings from the distracted mind of a PhD student. Friday, February 23, 2007. Slashdot Meetings Make You Dumber. Slashdot: Meetings Make You Dumber. Check out this link on Slashdot to a study reported on MSNBC where researchers have confirmed what many have long thought- large group meetings are a waste of time and instead of great new ideas, you get "group think".
