Well, August has begun, which means only one thing. Well, maybe more than that, but bear with me here.
The thesis is due in two months. That's 8 weeks. That's really not that long. Oh help!
No, it's not as bad as it seems. I've begun the write-up, though technically I won't be able to do much of it till I've finished the data analysis and drawn some conclusions. So the majority of the writing up will be done in September. But, for now, I've started on the introduction and the materials+methods (think school lab write-ups, just in more detail!), which I can do now, and I have about 1,500 words written. Which, considering I only started on Saturday, is pretty good going I think.
It's a scary thought that, not only do I have to have it all done, wrapped up and bound etc in the next two months, but that two months today I will officially no longer be a student. I don't know yet quite what I will be, but there we are. These four years will be over. And this project that I have put so much of myself into already, will be over and done with. It's almost sad, the thought of not having to think about it anymore. I'm enjoying it too much, and it really feels right now that I could keep going at this for another year or so and not run out of stuff to do.
Hmm. On that note, I think I shall go and do some more of it, if I want to actually finish it by the deadline...
