The One Goal Thread

E

I have a tandem for French. but each week I feel that I'm very lazy and don't want to meet him. Furthermore, I am so busy with my PhD and I meet him in the evening at the time that my husband stays alone at home. I apologize this week too, he has not replied to my sms mybe his is :-s. But I think I have many things more important than him ....

Goal 1 I did some searching work
Goal 2 I did the shopping
Goal 3 reading in a Book to see if it is important for me

Batfink, remember it's important to have time off, because otherwise your brain can't possibly absorb all of the knowledge you pour into it (or something)!

Emaa.. your husband is cheesed off about being home alone while you have a French class?!

Anyways. My third goal is now done. Woohoo! Although I do need to look over everything with fresh eyes before I submit anything. Now on to preparing some stuff for supervision on Thursday.

I apologised for French tandem to stay at home with my husband and study. Suddenly, my friend called me to tell me that she has one ticket for an important concert tonight , then I decided to leave my husband and study to have some fun with music
:-):-)

Morning all. My first goal today is to edit the second half of my analysis.

D

Well I managed to edit out another 700 words last night and did some extra formatting in the afternoon. So 1500 words lost and 5500 more to go. This afternoons goal will be some more editing! Isn't it painful to read through the first chapter written lol.

didn't get all the work I needed done yesterday - but did a lot.

Goal 1: put more variables in data set.

I hope that it will be by the time I get round to editing everything, because that means you have improved! My first goal is done. I am now happy with the overall structure of the analysis but it still needs one more edit to make sure I am happy with the details. But for now my goal for the rest of the day (as well as cycling to uni to attend a meeting with the research group) is to write a complete first draft of my summary and conclusions.

Thanks star-shaped, I hadn't considered that my writing must have improved! I definitely have more enthusiasm for reading the later chapters compared to the first few, now I appreciate why. Still need to be more ruthless in my editing :-s

Slept in this morning, so didn't get to station til 11 am, and didn't make it to campus til 12.30. Ah well. Goals for today:

1.) Get railcard renewal form stamped by graduate office
2.) Go to statistics training course
3.) Take the rest of the day off and go out to exciting gig tonight (yay, The Wedding Present, one of my all-time favourite bands!)

I think I'm taking to heart my supervisors' advice to not work too hard between now and Christmas :-)

I have just finished meeting with my research group. Must manage to continue writing up until 4 o clock...

Morning all.

My major goal for now is editing my analysis and getting to a final draft ready to send to my supervisor. My first goal is to edit the first section.

Morning..

I have a bit of RA work to finish this morning, but its eating into my PhD time, so it needs to be done by lunchtime at the latest.

so Goal 1: get on and finish RA work!

S

My first goal is done. My next goal is to move onto the (considerably longer) second section.

Morning all! Another late start for me after a top night out at a gig - really enjoyed it, but just couldn't get out of bed this morning!

Oh well. I have fridge freezer repair person coming this afternoon so I have to do all my washing up and clean the kitchen before he arrives (it's a tiny kitchen! but I've done almost no housework recently due to being ill!) so that's first goal of the day. After that, preparation for a presentation I'm giving next Wednesday.

I had a really bad headache yesterday. Went to bed with a really painful stomach, woke up with neither and now the headache is back :-(

anyway.

Goal 1: done. I've not got until monday free for PhD work.

Goal 2: have lunch. - oh I just realised its only 11.50. Oh well, I'll have lunch anyway as am feeling really dizzy and think it may be hunger.
