Can anyone explain paradigmatic/syntagmatic relationships in semiotics w examples bc everything my professor has put in the lecture slides about it makes no sense to me lmao

20231003 (day 2)

didnt have to be at work or on campus today so i spent the day getting some hours in at my beauty school and doing homework. caught up on a lot of reading for my dinosaurs class, had to learn some tetrapod anatomy and take a quiz (i got a 95 🥳). been sending lots of emails in attempts to figure out extra credit opportunities, issues w my self service site, and some stuff regarding my classes & priority registration for next semester.

still working on my study abroad application but cant finish it till the semesters over so i can give them my gpa. also looks like i may be spending a little longer than expected outside the U.S.? details on that to come later lol

since i got home ive just been trying to relax and catch up on shows and sleep. i have class at 8 am tomorrow and then also have 2 meetings after my classes all end just hoping i dont get home too late.

my tips for students that struggle with consistency

accommodations i’ve had approved as an autistic college student

helloooo today i finally had a meeting with the disability office and have accommodations after 2 years of being in college without them. im autistic and have cptsd/dissociative issues and had a hard time finding what was even available to me to request for accommodations so i wanted to make a list to help anyone else who might be having trouble.

• Priority registration

i get to register for classes earlier each term to make sure i can create schedules that’ll work for my routine

• Extended time on assignments

self explanatory i think? was also offered extended time on tests or a separate room to take them but testing isnt where i struggle

• Flexible attendance

as long as i email beforehand i dont have to stick as strictly to professors attendance policies

• Alternative formats

if i buy a physical textbook i can request the ebook/pdf/audiobook or free to have multiple methods of studying depending on what works for me on a given day

• Note taking

allowed to audio record class and send to a service called messenger pigeon who will give me a transcript of the class and professional notes based on it

• Access to lecture notes

able to access professors lecture notes prior to class/instruction

• Devices

allowed to have phone/ipad/laptop for social buffering and notes in classes that may have policies against electronics

• Flexible participation

no cold calling, option to work alone for group projects/assignments, not required to present in front of class

if anyone has any questions lmk these are just what i have been able to get at my school so far! hope it helps

school updates!

- been making friends finally and im really happy (i knew a total of like 3 people at my community college after going there for two years)

- midterms are done! still waiting on grades but very happy its over

- just met with my advisor today to finalize my class choices / make sure they make sense and ill get to register next week for spring! finally starting language classes (mandarin) up again

- really enjoying all my major classes so far

- currently struggling with my ethnomusicology seminar (assignments/topics are interesting but we have no textbook and kinda hate my professor) and am a few chapters behind in dinosaurs simply bc dinosaur biology & anatomy is overwhelming for my brain so i keep putting it off

- meeting w academic coaching office this week to get help w above issues

- had my first performance over the weekend with the dance crew i joined on campus !! it was scary there was a much bigger crowd than i expected but it went well and now we’re preparing for a showcase at the end of term :)
