I will try not to a) think of the thesis whilst watching the film, or b) cry in his lap!

:$

Almost done with the introduction, what I don't get done tonight will be easily manageable before breakfast tmrw, and then I will move onto the conclusion. The conclusion of hell!

summary or conclusion?
C



I did write this post six months ago for a conclusion to a chapter. Still, I am writing the thesis conclusion this weekend (second draft) so the appearance of this was timely. Thanks all. :)

Thank you, the only thing keeping me going is knowing the feeling I will get when I click" send" on Tuesday evening..

(that and copious cups of tea)

Really tired need motivation

You can do it! Mine is due Tuesday and I wish I only had editing left. I have to substantially re-write half a chapter and re-write much of the conclusion, as well as put the appendices together!

I have to do it, so I shall! (I hope!)

Good luck! You're so close!

So tired. So weepy.

Setting fire to it?
C


I want to destroy my entire thesis on a quantum level so there is no trace. A fire won't achieve that. I want to rip a hole in space time and dump the thesis in there - and I want to extinguish the thesis wherever it exists in the multiverse...every single dimension....gone. ;-)

Thanks!

Ohh Switzerland! I used to live in Germany and I lived in a quiet of suburb of Berlin. When I was working on the thesis in the night I could walk around in the snow late at night and not see anybody!

If anybody has insitutional access to this paper could they please, please pm me? I really need it for one of my chapters footnotes and brief mention for context. My university does not subscribe to the journal.. It is going in a footnote with a paper on cucumbers - and no, my thesis is not about eighteenth-fruit generally! ,)
