The one thing that caused dread to most #OpenUniversity students was having to submit lengthy essay assignments every two months or so to your professors (and also to Turnitin), in the hopes your work doesn't get marked for plagiarism. Endured five years of this dread. #distancelearning #pre2015

Also, as a Gen X consistently mediocre-at-best test taker I loved paper writing classes, final timed essays and would take them any day of the alternative.

Not a chance - I'm lucky to get three hours in. 🙁

This is a great essay, and this bit is particularly on the nose.

I haven't found the complete version yet, but I love listening to #KimNamGil sing one of the songs from the #LiveUpToYourName OST. It would've been great if he and #KimAhJoong did a duet for the #kdrama since she has a nice singing voice, too. This song is a permanent playlist fave. #NotGonnaWait

In the play I'm currently directing, one of the characters is a gay man who "found his Mr. Right - and then lost him." The play is set in the eighties. One of the actors, a guy in his twenties, had absolutely no idea what the implication was. What a wonder.

The real generational divide is people who refuse to watch a video if it could be an article versus people who refuse to read an article if it could be a video

ICYMI: Ishikawa Prefecture and Kanazawa City have launched a targeted social media campaign aimed at foreign visitors. It echoes measures in other regions of Japan that are grappling with overtourism.

I won the set of #Korean #language #books (and a 20-piece set of Javapen highlighters) from an international Christmas giveaway held by Tuttle Publishing on IG a few years ago. The #Chinese language #textbooks are the only ones I kept from my uni days. What to do about them..? 🤔 #Booksky

Formed in #Seattle by sisters Ann & Nancy Wilson, #Rock band #Heart have sold over 50 million albums worldwide. Their 1987 single “There’s The Girl” (with rare lead vocals by Nancy instead of Ann) was a Top40 hit in the USA & UK- the 12” remix was a Starck fave #80sMusic youtu.be/b5qmy6IEpGk?...

Striving for greatness and accepting yourself as you are in any given moment are not mutually exclusive endeavours.

Go see them next year..? 🤔 #DefLeppard #Extreme #concert #Rock #musicsky

The effort it took for Taiga to learn & write that is what is striking to me. He knows his words don’t carry much as weight because of his work. Therefore, putting in the effort to write it out shows his sincerity & true love for Minami & only Minami gets to see this from him. #LearningtoLove
