I’ve been busy with my assignments for a while now, so I haven’t had time to put together ideas for my thesis. My initial idea is in the direction of tax law and income inequality. My initial concern was to find out what strategies the US has used to reduce tax evasion that China could […]
Last two weeks, some things happened in China, which made me feel desperate and I decided to change my research topic. I took part in the course Learning and resilience which fits well with my research interests in psychology and mental health. The topic of my assessment is about highly sentisitive person (HSP) and how […]
Hello hello everyone, how are you all? I hope you are holding up or even already done with the semester. And even if you are not – keep calm, the holidays are close. Christmas ahoy! 🙂 Since the holidays are coming up & the semester is wrapping up, I thought I’ll write a short wee […]
Hi all! In the past three weeks, I followed Juli’s advice to try to contact people for a pilot interview.

The ‘what’ of this was a decent challenge, but the more significant hurdles have been the ‘how’ of […]
Hi everyone, sorry for my slightly delayed blog post. Last week was pretty busy & my head was/is a bit frazzled. But hey, at least I have now done all my intensives & submitted a bunch of group work 🙂 And we are all on that very last leg of uni – a few more […]
I got some inspiration from an elective course, which called Narratives of Digital Capitalism. During its intensive day, our group designed a physical device to mimic how social media works. In the conclusion, we found that social media algorithms are the mechanisms by which immersive, “unique” media feeds are created, which then opens the doors […]
