Yey The artist formally known as maya! Hello.
Glad all is well ladies. I am on the home stretch. Hope to submit around Easter. I am also involved in a project outside of uni -but to do with my research which is great as they're paying me money & I am doing a little bit of TV presenting work too.
I suppose my other big news is that I finally left my b.f a few months ago. But it is all good. Especially being free of the old bint monster in law

Shortest ammount of time to write a thesis? - one for the old timers perhaps
P

That's my fear, that the univesity is actualy going to slow me down.

I have been working on something else as well as the PhD the last few weeks and it may develop into something more and much more lucrative. I am in negotiation stage with a contract. Someone I know was in a similar position when the world of commerce came knocking before they'd finished and he recommended that I ask for 6 weeks before I sign on the dotted line and hole myself up and write a draft of the completed thesis.

Can it be done??!!

Piglet! Hello lovely. How's the job?

argh! is it possible to write 8,000 words in four days?

I mean how? Did you have to hit the redbull and put your phone on silent? I am totally up against it and may have to do some thing similar?

Say you've written your lit rev, method & methodology and a couple of papers which can be edited in - theoretically /hypothetically - if you were to lock yourself away and be v diciplined and put in an 8/10/12 hr day - how long do you think it would take to write a draft of a whole thesis?

Feeling Stupid.. how to cope
P

Inapickle please don't feel stupid - this sounds pretty common and I think you can count yourself normal

Remember you're only just starting out & a PhD is an apprentership. That's why we do it - do know more. If you knew everything now - you'd be amazing. Supers are used to it and that's what they are there for - to stop and make you think. If you can unerstand yourself that you've got a bit to learn, then I'd say you're totally on your way.

Good luck x

sigh...time for haircut
P

Is it possible to have proper feelings for someone with bad hair?
I have a crush on a colleague and then his hair goes and spoils it. It's awful, approaching a mullet.
