Apparently my UEA email thinks I'm a postgraduate now and I have been migrated to a different exchange.
No I don't know what that means, except I couldn't log in on the old link and I had to keep poking different links until it let me log in. At that point I found an email that said I'd received an email earlier to tell me I would be migrated, but not the earlier email it said I recieved. Also, if I can't get in to my account, I can't find the 'you have been migrated' email anyway. Also, I'm at least a year and a half away from graduation, and I haven't applied to do postgraduate study, so why does my email think I have?
Of course I didn't know I even HAD a UEA email until, iirc, it and my library access stopped working. They'd emailed me to tell me it would stop working. Invisible email to an invisible account.
I haven't actually been to the UEA library this college year, or since they allegedly fixed my library access again. I didn't need to this year yet. I will next semester due to preparing for my dissertation.
I need to think of a topic for that but I'll start doing so when the semester starts and the unit for thinking of a dissertation topic starts. That's weeks away. No worries.
So far I know it will be about Doctor Who.
Because there are very few topics I can think about for very long, let alone all year, and that leaves Doctor Who.
The only trouble is, that's still a very large topic indeed.
Even if I restrict it to Doctor Who that has been made since I studied Doctor Who at the UEA in summer 2008, which would probably be a good idea since there's a rule about not studying the same thing twice and if it is new I would definitely not mess with the rule, there's still quite a lot of Doctor Who.
Especially if I include the books and audios.
The UEA course had interesting Doctor Who essay questions, and I made many notes, and read all the books. I have a bunch of books still.
I will probably start by rewatching new Doctor Who and counting who is in it.
Has anyone done that yet?
It might not be terribly helpful, academically, but I get to rewatch all the Doctor Who.
