It is January 6th and I have one last section to write on my thesis. Well, two if you count the conclusion...{+ the part on metaphors}. I spent the past three days with a headache so I ended up working on it for about six hours today. Those two sections, clean up and cite some sources, expand on further questions this proposes, proof it myself, and voila. I will be ready to re-write it after getting input! (argh)
I have to be done with my first draft by the time classes start this week. If not, I think I will be doomed. I was thinking I was going to be laid off in late January/early February and have the gift of time in Feb/Mar to write this. It looks like that will not be likely now. Ergo, I HAD to be in movement on my paper. I am up to 31 pages. That is 10 pages up from just 2 weeks ago! Woohoo! If I proof by this weekend, I can get it to MGJ and VG for feedback. Then to my advisor and the re-writing can begin.
It seems to be never-ending but really, I just started working on writing it 5- 6 weeks ago.
I dream of the June cruise and reading crap novels!

Hooray! Congratulations!! You're in the homestretch. The first draft is the hardest part and you're almost there. What an accomplishment! The cruise is going to be well-deserved (I mean, I know it's for a b-day and all...but it will also be a chance to really "unplug" as well.) Thanks for sharing!
