Fifth week just started here – in five weeks, Michaelmas Term will be finished. That’s quite a frightening thought.<\/p>\n
This term has been chaotic, to say the least. In addition to my studies, I’m still dancing, a member of the MCR committee, and I’m still a part-time waitress. So, life gets busy really quickly. But, every day, I’m in the Special Collections Reading Room with my manuscripts.<\/p>\n
This year’s structure is a bit different from \u00a0last year. Right now, I’m enrolled in two tutorials – one in Old English language, and one in Anglo-Saxon Paleography. The Paleography option will continue through next term, in addition to a new course instead of the Old English Language option. In the following term, I just have to write my dissertation. And then…well, I’ll graduate and be a Master of English, I guess!<\/p>\n
In order to keep the professor dream going, I’m also in the middle of PhD\/DPhil applications. This is bringing back quite a few memories from senior year when I did all of my Masters applications. It’s an exciting time; I’m hoping to stay at Oxford, but we’ll see what other options manifest in the next coming months.<\/p>\n
So, until then, I’m off to translate some more!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
