#also while I’m already venting about stuff#I can’t decide on grad school in US or Japan bc I have things I love like dislike and hate about both countries#and the main reason I would go to grad school in Japan would be if I wanted to work there bc job hunting starts before graduation#vs if I stay in the US I’d need to do the same thing so I could transition from student visa to work visa#and it would be a lot harder to pivot either direction bc I’m either arriving very late to the Japanese job market without the networking#that school provides unless I depend on my family for networking which I don’t want to do for a lot of reasons#and if I go back to Japan then decide to live and work in the US I need to probably apply from overseas or fly to the US just for job hunt#and will be at a disadvantage to an American citizen who is already in the country#and I don’t know which place I want to live bc I miss japan when I’m in the US but I feel restricted when I’m in Japan and it just feels#so small#and I feel whichever place I pick I’m going to have regrets and I keep pingponging between the two places but I need to pick one#ALSO on top of it I’ve gotten really into linguistics over the course of my undergrad and I know in the US there’s more flexibility to pivot#for masters and I’ve already taken linguistics + English courses and could pivot to that#but I’d have to restructure my whole career path probably#aaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh!#for the record I love business too and econ#and also sociology and cultural anthropology esp of North America#and 20th century art/music history#and the pedagogy of foreign languages#and English in general#RrrRRrgh.
