Week 91: Being together for three years

2nd year PhD Journey30th September 201815th November 2020

This week has been very relaxing and felt nice and slow. My supervisor has often told me that I should take some time off from work after the conference. So, without feeling guilty about taking a break from work, I have been spending time reading some non-academic books and recipes. But I need to finish […]

Week 90: Oral presentation

2nd year PhD Journey22nd September 201815th November 2020

This week, I spent five days in Cardiff attending a conference. Cardiff was truly beautiful: clean and a much lovelier city than I expected. Sadly, I didn’t have the opportunity to look around the city apart from the university area, but I would like to go back one day and travel around Wales for sightseeing. […]

On Thursday, I took the tram, attended a conference at the university and met a couple of Japanese scholars (most of the attendees were British scholars based in […]

Week 87: Transcripts and Russian pelmeni

2nd year PhD Journey3rd September 201814th November 2020

Throughout the week, I made transcripts of audio data of five cases and translations with three-line interlinear gloss format. Until last week, I didn’t think it would take one hour to transcribe about three minutes of audio data in this way. It took me seven hours to complete one full consultation (20 minutes). This routine […]
