Just submitted my 6th attempt of a research proposal to the Research Council of Norway. This baby is now almost 6 years old 😂 #AcWri

High five!! I have tried to be that kind of person.. It didn't work. I did create the document and write a title or something early, but ofc didn't touch it anymore until close to the deadline 😂 I have now just accepted this is who I am 🫠😂

Turns out, I have to set a super low target to overcome the writing mental block I've been having for years. I'm talking RIDICULOUSLY low bar, just half a page per week. And by mid March I will have ERC B1 written. Quality of the writing is a problem for another time. #AcWri

Anyone else does self-talk as a coping mechanism? In a form of talking to yourself out loud to process an emotion, rehearse a conversation, or keep yourself in task? No?

Honestly, just came to a point where it is needed for my research career. The institution also needs someone to take over a course and I am familiar with the subject.

My entire career, I never wanted to be a lecturer because I'm a massive introvert (too much social interaction turns me into mush) and the logistics of teaching is just SO MUCH. I'm teaching for the first time now. It's super hard. But my colleagues are the kindest most supportive bunch.

So, I got a paper to review. It's double blind, so technically I don't know who wrote it. But just by how the sentences are crafted, I think I can safely guess. And based on my guess, I believe I have a conflict of interest. Do I then have a conflict of interest? Or this is just my perception?

Hello world, I guess? Currently attending WHISPERS 2024 in Helsinki, but honestly can't wait to have a Christmas break 🫠😅
