Topanga的部落格

Monica 是UCSB畢業的，她現在在柏克萊當visiting scholar, 也旁聽 Robin 的課，
禮拜一最後一次上課時，她問我去SB的東西都準備好了嗎？
又很熱心地提點了我好幾個該去「拜訪」的老師和學長，
真是大好人........

這個是她傳給我的資訊，LISO=Language, Interactiona, and Social Organization,
會期是五月中，一月中截稿。
她說我在課堂上寫的那篇paper改一改可以拿去投..

我覺得來這邊以來寫的paper一篇比一篇心虛，
只有這學期唯一寫的一篇 conversation analysis, 好啦雖然還很有改進的空間，可是至少我在寫的時候比較不那麼心虛，
覺得我的論點是真的從語料中找到證據而不是我自己在瞎掰胡扯的。
果然我還是對conversational data比較有感覺...Sigh.
