I have always held education and learning as the greatest gifts this society has to offer us, and i love being in education. I am currently a second year candidate on a PhD in Film Studies, focusing on Japanese horror. But i am always looking to the future as i do love to make plans. So here are my educational plans for my life:
June 2010: Finish my PhD
Till April 2011: Learn basic Japanese script
April - Oct 2011: Do Japanese Language Course: A 6-month beginner's course at Sheffiled Hallam Uni (http://www.shef.ac.uk/seas/dlc/jlc.html)
Oct 2011 - June 2014: Do the MA in Japanese Language and Society by Distance Learning at Sheffield Hallam Uni (http://www.shef.ac.uk/seas/dlc/jls.html)
Oct 2014 - June 2017: MA in Advanced Japanese Studies (Gender, Diversity and Citizenship)by Distance Learning at Sheffield Hallam (http://www.shef.ac.uk/seas/dlc/ajs_gdc.html)
...and after this:
- Learn sign language
- Learn to play the cello
CAREER
At the moment I am Programme Leader of Media at a college, and have been for the past five years . Its a great job with great kids and teaching is the best job in the world i believe, but I am very ambitious so i want to advance.
- Work at Sheffield Hallam University in the East Asian centre
- Get position as firstly lecturer, then senior lecturer, then Reader in Film Studies specialising in Japanese horror, Japanese culture and language
- Work part time translating Japanese documents
- Work within Japan in education
- Publish books within a university system
I am writing these for myself and for my friends and family so if something happens I want them to know what i was going to do, and also so i can look back and see how i did!
Well since you took the time to evaluate what you want from life and make the thorough long term goals, I see no reason why following through with them will be an issue.
