LIVE

Hi All,

Apologies again for my long delay in posting, but it’s been a terrible month of prepping papers for conferences and hustling to get my second qualifying paper in. I’m about to attend my first AAAL (American Association for Applied Linguists) meeting in Chicago this weekend, so I’ll be back to posting hopefully at the end of this month. Until then, here’s an interesting article about whether we live in the best time in history to learn languages, ever.

LL Recipe Comparison:

This article reminds me of the recipe for Fastest Pasta with Spinach Sauce:

Just as the article mentions how young people learn new languages quickly, you’ll find that you can make this dish incredibly quickly! The kalamata olives pair very well with the spinach and red pepper flakes, and the way that it’s all done pretty much in one pot reminds me of the article’s mentioning that technology allows us to learn languages pretty much all on one digital space. Good Cooking!

this is dumb, bye 

First day of spring semester and my first time back on campus for more than like an hour and a half since we went home in 2020–tbh not loving it. I’m going to need a routine bc I have almost 4 hours to kill twice a week between my classes. And I need to email my advisor about a meeting we scheduled for Friday that I want to move (whoops).

Anyway, I hope everyone’s semester is off to a less shaky start than mine! (I am, literally and unstoppably, shaking)
