The courses I'm taking this semester are…challenging, to say the least. Discourse Comprehension is proving particularly difficult, particularly this week, with a huge amount of focus on statistics, psychology, and neurolinguistics — the latter I've never done, the first two I haven't paid attention to in almost 5 years.

Fascinating, though, reading about how stereotypes affect language processing. A short and sweet course too, this one: I chose it specifically because it's only 5 weeks long and not 10 (and I knew it'd be a lot of work, but the extra time off will be worth it).
