Aargh no more scholarship must hand in dreaded thesis day...

... was yesterday. 

original calendar (without aargh!) from here

Unfortunately, as is usually the case with these things, it's been taking longer than expected and so my thesis is not yet done.

I'm not too upset though really, mostly because I can blame other people a bit instead of myself  :P 


Specifically I need research assistants to score some of my data (if I score my own data I can be accused of being biased and making the results fit my hypotheses), plus - Husband's brother (previously known on this blog as "Twin", which still applies since they are still twins) is getting married in mid December in Perth. So we're heading over to Perth for a week or so. We've never been before so it should be fun. Anyway what this means is that while I was still aiming for the end of December to hand in, it's now looking more like January will be the time when I finally finish my thesis.

Here's hoping that I don't write a similar post in January about how it will be a couple more months!

  5. Perth is AMAZING! I love it over here. But be prepared to pay ridiculous prices for everything. Can't say I didn't warn you.
    If I was in Sydney I would be your RA.

  6. I love Perth - I'm sure you'll have a great time there while visiting for the wedding. You're going at a great time of the year. Just don't forget to use your sunscreen!

    Best of luck with the writing and submitting! It's scary when you have a final date and then no money! I'm not looking forward to 15th August 2013...
