Still tackling with lit review

Hello! Been away for some time but back with updates!
  • I worked on the changes my supervisor wanted the last time I met him.
  • Started working on a new section in chapter 2.
  • Worked on the previous sections I've written so far.
My lit review still needs a lot of work but it's growing :) Tomorrow, I'll keep working on the new section. Hoping to finish it this week. Then, there's only one section left in this chapter.

Haven't started working on chapter 3 though. But it's ok. I'll also collect my post-test data this Thursday.

I should see my supervisor before January and decide on a date for my progress report 2!

All for now,
Bye!

Waking up from my slumber

Pff. Here I am again after a long break. Right, I did _NOTHING_ during my absence.

Excuses:

I couldn't get to meet my supervisor..so I couldn't get any feedback on my writings and I stopped writing. Now, isn't that a great excuse?

Ok, yesterday, I finally could catch him in his office and on Tuesday I'll meet him again to show him my draft. He gave me a few books to use in my chapter 2. I've been trying to figure out why I need to include this in my thesis at all. All I need to do is mention the whole idea in just one sentence - if at all necessary. But since he gave me all these books and expects me to incorporate the idea in my chapter, I'll have to find a way to do it somehow. But not today, not today!

Tomorrow, I'll try to do it and read everything I've written so far just to remember so when he asks 'What do you mean by this in this paragraph?' on Tuesday, I'll have an answer. I'm also hoping to start writing my Chapter 3 tomorrow. We'll see.

Be back on Tuesday!

My 2nd progress report is due in January. We're in December, right?!?!
