Good morning. Love your channel. I just thought I would share I earned my MFA in creative writing. Big smile. Finally got that master’s degree. Now I'm on pins and needles waiting to see if I got accepted into the UC Mercedes Ph.D. program. Have a wonderful day. - Derrick
I love your videos so much! Thank you for informing us about all things academia, it truly helps me so much! My professor asked me if I would like to TA for her class and I felt like so honored and thought about you, like omg I cant believe she thinks I can do this! I'm really scared it's for Art History course and it's community college but I'm so honored to be thought of! I want to get a master's in Art History but the process is slow and the hurdles are many! Thank you for your videos you help me see it's possible! ❤
HOW EXCITING! I am so happy that my videos have helped you feel more prepared! I think this experience will be amazing and really help you figure out the ins and outs of art history and your academic future! (also as a fellow art historian very cool to e-meet another art historian) I would love to hear more about your journey! So please keep me updated if you like!!!!
Belated congrats on finishing your TAship! In your explanation of why, I could really feel the honest intention to help people, I’m sure you’ve already affirmed ppl’s lives in so many ways. 💜How are you feeling about the defence of the phd aspect, are you nervous at all? P.S that was an entire bowl of sour cream with a side of chipotle
HAHAHAHHAHAAHAHAHAHAH! (@ the sour cream comment) I am dying!! My department does an oral defense before we are able to start writing and nothing afterwards! So luckily I don't have one.... though honestly at this point I don't think I would feel nervous cuz ... they know what I am writing and they haven't told me it was bad yet hahah so I feel like if I did have one, it would be pretty chill lol Thank you for the affirmation and support! You are always sooo kind!
Congratulations on completing your TA. I wish you the best of luck on defending your dissertation. Will you continue to post videos once you obtain your Ph.D?
Hi!!! thank you!!! I will! I will post more tips and advice that I needed when I was a graduate student and some vlogs and info on post-docs in the humanities! Don't worry! I am not going anywhere hahaha Thank you for commenting!
I really enjoy following your journey. I'm doing my PhD in Iceland and it is very interesting to see the difference between the US and Iceland/Nordic countries. Congratulations on finishing your TAing. Are you interested in staying in academia and to teach? I'm and adjunct as well as a PhD student and I'm loving the teaching.
Thank you so much for such a kind comment!! I am working towards postdocs now, so after that I'll decide what I think might be best. But I do love teaching so much!!! Thats amazing that you can adjunct and study! It happens sometimes in the US but I wasn't able to do it! What's your research focus?
@Brisa Marie - Future PhD I'm in education, focusing on early childhood education. My research is examining social interactions in the toddler peer group using conversation analysis.
