Hi there,

anyone else burning the midnight oil tonight? I managed to get back on track after my thread here about lack of energy etc. Made a nice little plan and have so far worked through it and kept to the deadlines I set myself and with the supervisor. Hopefully I'll have a final draft by August and submit the thesis in early September.

The stress level is high, particularly working/writing when it's so warm and humid. Next deadline is tomorrow and I have to finish the discussion for my third chapter. So probably stay up till 1am.

I'm struggling to write a thesis conclusion that just doesn't sound turgid. But I'm finding it hard. :-s:-( Up for a few more hours.

Hi Chris,

yes, it gets very annoying, particular with the lack of sleep these last couple of days.

I have finished typing now and will get some sleep. Best of luck!

Back again on the midnight train. Anyone else?

I have to finish off two chapters 'til tomorrow. Almost there. Just have to slot in some more references and expand on some aspects.
Thesis must be submitted in exactly 8 weeks. Aaargh. Tired but can see the end is in sight. Just...have....to...keep....working....through.

Damn, arrive late at the platform tonight so missed the Midnight Express! Ah well, I'll be boarding tomorrow and choosing an extra large carriage to fit all the work I have to do in.

Well, I managed to catch the Midnight Express tonight, destination the town of Toil. Am I travelling solo, or is anyone else on board, working away?

Ah I missed this one. Absolutely exhausted last night so I went to bed instead of doing anything. :-s Hopefully, I have some energy to get something done tonight. We'll see.

Ladies and gentlemen, the Midnight Express will be departing from Hard Graft Station in approximately 15 minutes time. Travellers are advised to to gather their belongings - laptops, PC's, files, folder, articles, felt tips and crayons - and make their way to the platform as soon as possible. Tonight the Midnight Express will be travelling to Workinghell, calling at Busy Bee, Piled Higher and Deeeper, Callitaday and Notnearlyenough. We hope you have a pleasant and safe journey - and manage to get some work done! Choo choo!

Well, here I am alighting at Workinghell - what a boring ride. Danzig, you missed the train...again! :-)

I will agree with you Sylvester.

Hello late nighters (if there are any)! Who's joining me in a little twilight intellectual endeavour tonight?

I will be up doing a spot of reading with a cup or tea!

Oooh, I am actually up as well and might write a paragraph or two ;-)

Hello Danzig, and hallo gibt, Chrisrolinski. I hope we can all manage to get something productive done tonight, or, as Chrisrolinski might say, '
Ich hoffe, wir können eine Menge von Schreiben und Lesen erfolgt'.:-)
