This is an even bigger jackpot than when The Emperor figured out the formula for great Star Wars dialogue.
I really hope that title isn’t too long.
It’s been a while since I’ve updated this thing. I’ve decided I’m going to make a greater effort at this blog, and use the documents section as a paper dump of sorts to publicize some of my work.
Perhaps one of the reasons I’ve haven’t maintained this site more is because it doesn’t have any real theme. It was kind of a general observational blog. Sometimes I would write about linguistics, sometimes about whatever the hell was happening on the Deseret News editorial board, and sometimes about whatever video game I was playing. There was always too much going on, so now I need to decide what to do.
I’ve decided I want this blog to be more theme-based. Now that I’m finished with my first year as a graduate student in linguistics, having learned more than I feel I ever did in the three years I majored in linguistics as an undergrad, I feel content relating to that should make up a sizable portion of the blog. I don’t want it to end there, however. I’d like to also talk about things like whatever television show I’m watching or what game I’m playing…dammit, this is basically the same thing it was.
Well, here is the thing, there will actually be a lot going on over the summer and the next semester as I complete my thesis fieldwork. I intend to spend a fair amount of time documenting that here. There may even be pictures involved.
