As that guy on that Brit sitcom "one foot in the grave" says 'I simply can't flippin beleeeeve it'. I have just about finished. Just about to commence Chapter 5 Discussion and the last mega chapter of this bloody thesis-should have it down and dirty and ready for editing in about 2 weeks!!!!! YAY!!!! GO ME!!!!
No honestly after feeling almost suicidal last week and clocking up six private meltdowns in almost as many days between finishing up term 1 of work and new role and trying to code and table results all in the very little spare time left- results chapter almost wrote itself. I do have a lot of editing though-way over quota so will need to physically shear off some chunks from lit review (where it might be repetitive-will need to do this visually though with scissors and coloured markers I think) and ensure that discussion and conclusion are kept to around a max of 6000 words. The thesis will be a bit over length anyway but as long as it is close to 25000 and not 30000 then things should be okay.
Anyway, it is a bit of a brag, but after almost wondering why anyone does postgrad and what on earth possessed me, etc, etc ...I just want to say for anyone going through the Master's thesis hurdle, particularly if you are working full time as well...then this feeling is worth it! I know that I will get there now. One major think fest for discussion and then some rigorous editing but it will happen!:-)(turkey)(robin)
