I've done the corrections, tables, figures etc. I feel nervous and I can't help feeling a bit scared. But I guess that's it for now. I'll take a final look at the thesis before printing it off and then that's it. Off to the Faculty!

Hi everyone!! It has been a while since my last message in this thread. First, congratulations Lara for submitting your thesis ;) I'm so proud of you!! And the same goes to others who have submitted :) To rubyw, well done for submitting the second draft of your thesis ;) and I totally agree with you, it doesn't have to be perfect because it is a work in progress...

As for me, I am still awake trying to complete the corrections based on my supervisor's feedback on the first draft of my thesis. It's almost 4 am in Brisbane and I have a chapter to revise. On top of that, I need to improve my conclusion and the abstract. I'm supposed to submit the thesis to the Faculty by 4 pm later. I hope I can manage all the corrections by 9 am and do the printing and binding in time for submission. I am tired but the thought of finally getting the thesis done gets me going.

All the best people ;)

Hi everyone...didn't manage to complete the revision on chapter 5. I was not focused as I kept thinking about today. I'll be meeting my supervisors later at 3:30 pm and discuss about my thesis. I agree with Lara on the supervisory comments. Indeed, while doing my corrections on individual chapters before the thesis was put together as a whole for the first time, I could see major improvements in the final drafts. I still have a lot to do though...I remember a mentor saying that a thesis will never be 'perfect'. As much as I look forward to our meeting today, I can't help but feel nervous. It's a normal feeling I guess. The thing that pressurizes me most is the deadline of submission to the Faculty, which in my case is 11 days from today. Can I do all the changes in 11 days? I can and I will!!:-s

Hi everyone, been following this thread silently but tonight (its 11:10pm in Brisbane) I am going to join in this thread and try to do some revision on my chapters. Target for tonight is to revise my chapter 5 cause I know there are some sections that need more 'unpacking' to do. I've actually submitted the first draft of my thesis and on Monday, I'll be meeting my supervisors for the feedback. I feel very nervous. Haven't been able to sleep well thinking about the thesis.
