DONE!

That's all I want to say: done! :))

Defense soon

My defense is in a few days, and I'm scared stiff!! I don't wanna fail, but I have this feeling :((((

Public Defense!!

Ok, my public defense is on the 4th of November...and I'm trying to prepare my powerpoint presentation. It's so boring and impossible! I don't know what to include and what to leave out.

But I have a bigger problem. It feels like I have forgotten everything about my dissertation. Like if they'll ask me something, I won't be able to answer.

I don't think I'll be able to finish this ppt this weekend. After I finish it, I'll sit down to read the dissertation with a fresh mind (if I still have time!)

Nothing to update, but still

Hi after a long time...nothing happened meanwhile. I had submitted my dissertation to my supervisor in the first week of April...and he didn't have the time to read it all this time...this means I can't defend and be done with it in June.

I'll have to get extension and hopefully defend it in September (if he cares to read it that is).

I haven't done anything about it since April, and right now it feels like I don't even remember what my dissertation was about (ok, maybe not that bad). Soon, I'll try to 'force' my supervisor to give his feedback on it, and start working from there.

I will probably not be around for a while.

See you when I see you.

All coming to an end?

I think I finished my conclusion. I say 'I think' because I have a feeling that it's not as good as it should be. I wrote all the formalities too...cover page, abstract (this needs some editing as well), table of contents, etc. So, the document is more or less ready to be reviewed by my supervisor. I'll call him tomorrow to get an appointment sometime this week. Then, we'll see how much editing it needs (I'm scared!)

I don't know why I have this uneasy feeling. It's almost done but I don't have this feeling of 'completion' yet. Well, maybe because I still have to wait until June to say I'm a DR! :p

Will be back after I see my supervisor.

*tears falling down because these are my last posts* ;-)

Update

Just wanted to let you all know that I'm still working on my conclusion. I made my list of tables and list of figures.

What's next:

• Finish conclusion
• Write the abstract in English and Turkish
• Make the table of contents
• Go over the first chapter and edit
• Go over the whole thing and meet the supervisor!

One month to go!

Conclusion?

I haven't met my friend yet to finish the last part of my analysis. I've been feeling very uneasy for losing so much time waiting for him. He promised to meet me this week...hopefully.

I started to write my conclusion today. Let me tell you one thing: it sucks. I feel like I don't have any ideas and it looks very premature. Why do I have to write a conclusion...can't I just leave it to the understanding of the readers, eh?!

Anyway, I'm running out of time and I am stressed out.

That's all.
