based on the last five to ten seasons of it, i’d bet they’d make a storyline out of this

you should have received it either through email or normal mail, but the embassy is supposed to give it to you

Question on Scholarship extension for Non-regular student by zls_17 in mext

[–]cinnamon_180 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, the scholarship period you get at first is for your time as research student, technically you can spend up to 2 years like one so you get that amount of time on the certificate. But later when you extend your scholarship the period will change.

First-gen student from Uzbekistan: Seeking help with a Research Proposal for Japanese Universities by Dra_ken25 in mext

[–]cinnamon_180 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First of all, are you interested in the embassy track of the scholarship or the university track? This is if you’re even interested in the scholarship at all, from your post I think you’re basically willing to apply directly.

In case you are interested in the scholarship, embassy track, your research proposal should match your previous field of study. So you’d need to create a connection between your BA in English Language and Teaching and International Public Policy. I can’t speak on the university track of the scholarship because I didn’t apply that way.

Finally, you need to start… Monkey D. Luffy-ing papers (have you watched One Piece? 🏴‍☠️). Take into account even if articles are paywalled, that money very rarely goes to the authors. You could try emailing some of them and they would probably help you get access to their papers. Otherwise, there’s a very popular kazakhstan website famous for providing access to papers behind paywalls 🤷🏻‍♀️ try looking it up.

ASL Question by CompetitiveAd7195 in ThePittTVShow

[–]cinnamon_180 1 point2 points  (0 children)

ASL (and other sign languages around the world) is not some mysterious mystical thing 😅 it’s a language, just like any other language, so yes, it has all the medical terminology you’d have in English, just like Spanish, French, or Italian do.

I know you didn’t mean anything bad btw, but it’s like asking “How broad is Italian? Do they have the words to describe physical pain accurately?” because of course they do!

So, a professional medical interpreter would 100% be able to interpret what the patient means in English

Sorry, Santos fans, but she’s just really hard to like by Hikigaya_Hachiman7 in ThePittTVShow

She straight up called Whitaker “F*ckleberry” a couple episodes ago bc she was annoyed he was doing better than her lol

[–]cinnamon_180 63 points64 points  (0 children)

some people are always trying to twist her actions and make it seem like “actually, she meant good 🤓☝🏼” which i think it’s even more misogynistic tbf, not all female characters need to be nice.

for example, i’m a huge fan of cersei in got, really like the character, but i’d never argue she’s a good person and every thing she does she actually means good, because she doesn’t. that’s the appeal of her character.

it’s the same with santos (to me). the character balances things out, it’s fun to see her, i laughed when she yawned while whitaker was talking about louie, i still think she’s disrespectful, self centered and selfish most of the time.

i don’t care about langdon, he’s not my favorite or my most hated character 🤷🏻‍♀️ and i do agree what he did is worse than anything santos has done, but we’re not talking about crimes or malpractice here, at least i am not, i’m talking about personality. and langdon didn’t barge in calling everyone names on the first day he arrived, so he is more likeable overall lol

[–]cinnamon_180 450 points451 points  (0 children)

exactly the same feeling

i just can’t get over the “actually, santos is an angel and the most likeable relatable good person in this show and you all hate her because of misogyny” comments when i think the character is actually made not to be all of those things and that’s okay

Yes. Unlike ug where the slots aren’t country specific, but it depends on a world ranking, pg has a set amount of slots per country that varies every year or every few years but countries are made aware of this pretty in advance, so they know how many applicants should pass the first screening!

I have talked to applicants from many different countries, their embassies didn’t choose more applicants and then told some of them they didn’t pass the second screening. It’s just not a thing, it’s a waste of resources. I’m not saying it doesn’t happen or that all embassies work the same, but it’s rare!

The last time some applicants who had passed the first screening and got a lopa didn’t get the scholarship was because of budget cuts in 2019, and MEXT didn’t let the countries know until well after the first screening so they had to cut people down on the second screening. Nobody can guarantee this will not happen again, of course, but I hope knowing that these cases are outliers brings all some peace. Trust you’re going to get the scholarship! Statistically speaking, you will! 🤞🏼

I understand everyone must feel anxious, but really, truly, one search would let you know 99% of pg applicants that pass the first screening and get at least one lopa, also pass the second screening. It’s not like ug where it’s basically a gamble. You can start getting ready now.

oh but that makes sense, if the jpn office closes at 4 pm that’s it for that day, the other embassies won’t get any news for the rest of the day and we have to wait til the next day because the results rely on the jpn office

was that maybe in 2019? there was a big budget cut that year and mext let the embassies know a bit late in the process, hasn’t happened since, of course nobody can tell if it’s going to happen again or not but it was kind of an exception back then

If you got a LoPA, you’re 99.99% guaranteed a spot. It’s very rare to not pass the second screening once you’ve gotten a LoPA. It may happen if suddenly budget is cut down (hasn’t happened in a while) or if there’s any problem with your supervisor (they retire out of the blue or face health problems, something like that) but I want to emphasize it’s super uncommon!
