Growth Mindset: Cats


I have had a lot of unexpected problems this semester and it has affected some of my grades.  For one of my courses, I have had to accept the fact that it isn't going to turn out how I wanted, but it's going to be okay.  It's time to accept it and move on.



Studying for finals always makes us realize there are a lot of questions we still have about these subjects.  I feel like I have read my textbooks twice as much the last few days as I did each week.  You'd think we would know the subjects better at this point in the semester.

So, about my major...  I am fascinated by languages and everything about them.   If you are unfamiliar with linguistics, that’s totally fine.  Most people I encounter outside of my major don’t really know what it is either.  Linguistics is a sub-field of anthropology that focuses on language.  I really like the more technical aspects of my major. For example, I really love phonetics, a sub-field of linguistics.  This field foc...
